marcicatApproximately once a year, work events conspire to arrange themselves so that I feel compelled to wear something other than a hoodie or t-shirt to show up in. (Usually meeting with outside vendors. There's no official dress code, but I generally try to hit the 'neither most formally nor least formally dressed' sweet spot.)
(PS: Yesterday one of the vendors wore suit pants, but with like, an ath-leisure top? This was distressingly similar to what I wore (non-jeans pants and a company-branded zip-up jacket). I say distressingly because the vendor immediately pinged my 'I do not like this person' sensor, AND we wound up sitting next to each other. I'd like to claim I pulled the outfit off better than they did, but who knows. I can say for sure that mine had more cat fur on it, and at least that's something.)
ANYWAY the original point of this post is that I have approximately two outfits that meet these incredibly vague 'looks like I tried but not too hard' standards, so it's a good thing we only have two days of meetings per week. Tomorrow: RETURN TO HOODIES.
