It's Business Time

Proenza Schouler top and shoes, Brooks Brothers skirt

No, not that kind of business time.  I mean the kind of business time where you have to leave the confines of your air-conditioned office and those well-worn bookmarked blogs behind and *gasp* actually meet and talk to real people in real life!  I had to get some very important documents signed by a client the other day, and I was faced with the conundrum of what to wear?  It's definitely still far too hot to put a whole suit together, especially since I would be walking there.  Yet, I felt I had to dress a bit more conservatively than is my wont.  Thankfully, a shirt I had been wavering on at the Proenza Schouler sample sale last week (more on that later) earned its keep, and while all I'm wearing is an all-business suit skirt and white button down, I love that the windbreaker-esque back and sporty elasticized heels still solidly convey that I'd rather be at the beach than slogging through the hot humid streets of midtown. ;-)
