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.

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.

IтАЩm amazed I didnтАЩt top myself in the Columbus summers.

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 ;)

Maybe, but I had four children and a husband who didnтАЩt cook and I would come home from the office at 8 and be standing at the stove cooking dinner for six at 9PM.

IтАЩll take living in cotton and hanging out with the dog. The kids grew up, I retired, and my husband and soulmate passed away. IтАЩd put on all the old clothing costume to get him back, but thatтАЩs it.
