FOR WHICH OCCASION WOULD YOU RATHER DRESS?

Work -- you have spent a lot of time and money putting together a work wardrobe and love wowing your colleagues.

Casual -- You can't wait to ditch the work clothes in favor of jeans and meet friends at that trendy new uptown restaurant.

Formal -- You love getting all blinged up for a cocktail or formal affair. This is where you truly shine.

Me? I will opt for Casual.

Oh I am definitely all about casual. But work does require that more money be spent on clothing for that, but I'm not into "wowing" or impressing anyone. Those days are over.

Casual all the way. Can't wait to retire so I can purge my closet of work attire, especially the shoes.

Casual is all I wear. If it's not comfy I don't wear own it or wear it.

How about dressy casual? Jeans with heels and a sexy top- that's my favorite!

Can I pick my own category ? How about Bedtime ? Haha that's what I look forward to dressing for.

But of your 3, I choose casual.

Casual, because it's pretty much all I ever do anymore.

I have to say work and casual because I work in a business casual environment; so, almost everyday is a jeans day for me. As a manager, I don't like to dress to casually. I generally dress business-like on top with nice jeans, boots and of course my jewelry. And that's pretty much how I dress when we socialize.

Upscale-casual minus the jeans. In other words, Linea casual!

ITA. I don't think most of us are "wowed" as the "wowees" want us to be.

Casual and relaxed -- but nice (says this girl who's lounging around the house in a sweatsuit on this snow/ice/sleet shut-in day in Atlanta)........

Definitely casual. My professional wardrobe, although made up of very high quality pieces, was never about wowing anyone. I let my work to do that. Now that I'm retired, I still wear those pieces, but paired with other more casual things.

Casual ... but my description of casual doesn't include jeans.

Lipstickdiva — Wed, 12 Feb 2014 23:29:00 GMT

Casual. But I agree with Kathleen. Everyone's idea of casual is different. Some people's casual is someone else's dressed up.

My casual does include jeans though.

I love getting dressed up for a special, formal event. I love getting to wear my best jewelry!! Second, casual and lastly, work.

I'd really love dressing to the nines for a very special formal event. Get out my fanciest dress, shoes, gloves, jewels and dance the night away. I just do not get much chance for that. The reality for me are my Sundays where I actually get to dress up some. There should be a category in between formal and casual. It would fit me best.

My favorite look to put together is casual to dressy casual. I also enjoy putting together a special occasion outfit, even though I don't get to do that very often. When I do, I put a lot of effort and preparation into it, down to even cleaning the soles of my shoes if they have been worn before.
