The only good thing was being able to wear your favorite winter sweaters year-round! I think I do need to keep a second wardrobe in my office.

This is why, at work, in addition to the shoes that bloom under my desk, I usually have a representative sampling of my entire wardrobe, in suitable work-related incarnations: a tank top (velvet); a short-sleeved T-shirt (silk); a long-sleeved T-shirt (silk); a vest (probably beaded silk); a sweater (cashmere); thermal bottoms (silk); a scarf; an extra skirt; an extra jacket; and extra underpinnings. I got soaked down to the skin at work once, and it was Unpleasant. I happened to have a new top and skirt with me, so I was luckier than most folks that day. I've never forgotten it, and all the layers that I'm hoarding coordinate with one another, so I don't look like a random lunatic just because the temperature's being erratic.

Come summertime, every building in the universe blasts air conditioning like there is no tomorrow, so you move from frying temps to freezing in your super cute wedges.
