Ha. I'd like to think so. But as a remote worker, I've worn a suit exactly twice in the last 5 years. Here it's 110 degrees and bone dry. My current haberdasher is the Hanes t-shirt aisle at Walmart.
Maybe, but I had four children and a husband who didn’t cook and I would come home from the office at 8 and be standing at the stove cooking dinner for six at 9PM.
I’ll take living in cotton and hanging out with the dog. The kids grew up, I retired, and my husband and soulmate passed away. I’d put on all the old clothing costume to get him back, but that’s it.
I haven't seen a seersucker suit since I moved out of the Low Country 15 years ago, and I didn't realize they were a regional quirk until I moved to the Mid-Atlantic. It gets so humid I thought that at some point all the Seersucker suits would get pulled out of the closets, but I realized around August of my second summer that they must simply not exist in the mid-Atlantic :)
I grew up in St. Louis which is like MS in the summer. But for seersucker and hankies we’d all have died.
I’m sure you looked fabulous. It’s wonderful stuff.

I wear cargo crops from EBay and the $5 sale t-shirts from Old Navy, and $8 slip ons from Aldi. Always.
I spent nearly 40 years in suits, hose, silk blouses, heels and makeup.
I’m amazed I didn’t top myself in the Columbus summers.
KIm,40 years. My condolences!
I think something has been lost in people not dressing up and going out to work, engaging with people, and then coming home to the comfort of home.
Maybe I'm an old soul, but I dress up for work in blouses and heels and blazers.
But this Millennial draws the line at panty hose. Everyone just has put up with me displaying my bare ankles like a licentious floozy ;)

Kim, Bullwark put my seek sucker suit joke totally out of order (context) Really put the kibosh on my quip!
