Trendy Tuesday: Cocktails with the Girls

July 27, 2010

Working from home during the day makes me a bit lazy to go out at night but being an events reporter means I always have to be on my A-game. Unless I’m going to a gala, my dressing is usually dressy casual.  I join my girlfriends for cocktails before going to my events and often times, they are in career attire, be it a suit of some sort of power dressing ensemble.  For evening cocktails with the girls and happy hour socials I am required to cover, looking put together without over dressing is very important.

This summer has been a shirt dress summer for me. I believe in the shirt dress and its ability to dress up or down depending on accessories. This Elizabeth & James Laurent Linen & Cotton Shirt Dress is my go to on lax days. When paired with tan wedges, a cream clutch and colorful earrings and a cuff, the shirt dress is instantly updated for cocktails on the waterfront with the girls.
