You may remember reading about my friend and colleague, Kate, and our recent shopping excursion at Revolve (see post: ‘Jacket Hunt at Revolve’)…..on that day, she did find great ‘statement’ jackets, but not the basic neutral jacket(s) she was looking for…..On a recent Monday morning as I walked into our conference room for a meeting, I did a double take – “Is that a new jacket?? Are those new boots?? You look great!!!” ….(of course we always have to talk about clothes before we get down to business)……Turns out she has a consignment shop near her home on the North Shore: Revival Fashion Consignment, on Elm St in Danvers….Based on our recent day together, she knew what kind of jacket to look for and was determined to find this basic piece to add to her wardrobe – she said it really helped to “know what she was looking for” – and what bargains they were!!! The jacket is Inc. brand, can be worn three seasons – she paid $10!!! The suede boots, Talbots brand, were only $20!!! Gotta love these end of season sales….. I can’t help but keep remembering Kate saying, “I don’t look good in jackets”…..doesn’t she look great? Honestly, she really kicked up her professional image significantly…..remember ladies, your clothes send a message – Kate’s message is clearly serious, stylish, professional……..ok, let’s get back to work!
