We’ve always been fans of Rochester’s night life. People sometimes complain that it’s always the same old thing but we really do think that the city has a good variety of options, plus it is all what you make of it. Nevertheless, one thing we do have to bring into question after going out Friday night is, “why do people in Rochester not like to get dressed up?” Now, more than ever, great clothes are easy to come by at great prices. E x a m p l e : Friday night, both of us rocked classy sassy dresses that cost us together under $40, while others rocked skater designer hoodies that average $60. Really? We weren’t looking for formal attire but how about going for a casually dressy look maybe with a side of chic. The invite said dress well aaand sexy, and this is what you bring to the table? Take it H O M E ! Ironically enough, that was the name of the party…

A statement that sadly could be made to way too many people is "you don't have to spend a lot of money to look better than you do".
ReplyDeleteIt's not about how much one spends but the value one gets from an article of clothing and one can't do that unless they know the difference between good and bad, quality and mediocrity, style and mundane.
So to answer your question, and understand that I am in total agreement with you, it's because they don't know how!!!
But what do I know?!?!?
Exactly, a lot of people don't know how! All it takes is a little extra effort though. What I have discovered, is that many clothing stores carry identical merchandise but price it very differently. An item found at a more upscale retail location is obviously priced accordingly, but there have been times when I have found that same EXACT item at a lower end shop for way less!!! Versatility of an item is a whole other subject. I always try to get things that can be worn in multiple ways. Example: the black dress in pictures, I actually wore backwards but one would never know :) The front view is a vneck and is a completely different look. More on that to come in the future posts...thank u for your feedback!
ReplyDeleteAre the amount of drinks being consumed part of the equation?
ReplyDelete:)
lol...drink consumption is never part of the equation when important fashion decisions are being made such as selecting a look for the evening :)
