They're back!
Yes, it's that time of year again. Flowers are blooming, birds are chirping, and the dreaded capri suit is making its return to the fashion scene. I spotted my first capri suit of the season on my way to work today.
I do not understand this at all. Okay, I at least understand the theoretical appeal of capris, even if they are unflattering to the overwhelming majority of people in practice. But a capri suit? In what situation is that appropriate? Is there a huge gap in women's wardrobes for outfits to wear to work that make them look ridiculous? ("Hmm . . . . I'd like to look professional today, but not too professional. I know! I'll wear my capri suit!")

And to think one of the biggest issues the dress code committee on which I served dealt with was whether capris should be allowed and, if not allowed on their own, whether having them as part of a suit (which many people said was "polished" and "professional") would make them appropriate.
Maybe some people go to lots of office clambakes.
And better than ever. Personally I think the capri is a fashion classic that fits any occasion. I saw a woman wear a capri suit to a black tie State Department affair and thought she looked fabulous. Live a little.
I'm not 100% sure who rlauren is, but I am sure that he or she is trying to lead me astray.
