I'm about to go into the office, because we are holding a department research talk. They are informal presentations of our work in progress (not mine today, thank goodness). I'll go in the spring. Because it's a Friday and none of us teach (mostly), I am going grad school casual. This outfit is very representative of what I wore in grad school. Flat, comfy shoes, leggings, comfortable but short skirts, and layered tops. I even have my scraggly grad school hair (OK, I've been lazy in getting it cut. Everything else seems more pressing, and it's hat weather). I realize this is a sloppier look than many of our more polished readers prefer, but for some reason, intellectual (but not formal) activities make me want to go for shabby, but hopefully still vaguely reflecting my personality. My ma would not approve of this look. I call it my "I spend a lot of time in rooms with books thinking," look.
Do you all ever deliberately go for a more relaxed than normal look, because of the circumstances at your job? Or do you like a little polish at all times in work settings?
I'm excited about the No Repeats challenge. To my M-F friends/blogging buds- enjoy the weekend!
