I wore this to a lunch date the other day to discuss various research projects. I was going for a mix of casual yet professional and my pleat skirt and a white top seemed to work pretty well for that. Tomorrow I am leaving for the American Historical Association conference in Chicago. I won’t be presenting a paper but I will be seeing a ton of historian friends from across the country and going on some job interviews … as well as exploring some of my favorite places in Chicago (one of my favorite places to visit – love that city). So wish me safe travels and good luck!
