Stilettos, Sweatpants and Suits: The New Office Uniform
I recently met with an real estate broker to check out some apartment prospects. Granted this was a Sunday and I know people can get a little laissez-faire with their wardrobe choices when it comes to the weekend, but when this guy rolled up in a stained Snapple sweatshirt with
Great Gatsby! It’s the Jazz Age Lawn Party
