Re: dress codes

["Mrs. Fossum" <librarian@OAKLANDCATHOLIC.ORG>]

OK, all of this dress code talk has made me feel compelled to confess...I
must admit being sucked in to "The Apprentice."  I really think it gives the
best of both worlds: you get the soap opera drama AND some pretty
interesting insights into the business world.  (At least I don't feel as
guilty as I did when I watched "Joe Millionaire.")  Anyway,  two recent
articles that I read about the show specifically mention professional
attire, and Carolyn "The Ice Queen" Kepcher's thoughts on the sometimes
inappropriately dressed female contestants:

From USA Today:

Then, in the New York Times:

Yikes!  I hope young people today aren't looking to "Ally McBeal" for advice
on what to wear to the office!
