Hit up Goodwill. You can actually find some hidden gems there 🤷‍♂️

I wish! My frame is pretty small so it’s harder to find in my size

Pics helpful also!

For basics: Navy, dark grey
As you grow your wardrobe, there are some really nice finely woven patterns that are very elegant for men

Every man should have a navy blazer in his closet. It goes nicely with different colors. And you can even wear it with jeans as well.

Honestly, I like brooks brothers the best. But I also like Jos. A. Banks. and men’s warehouse when they have the buy 1 get 1 free sale.

Hey everyone. I am in desperate need of reorg data access for a project deliverable.

Wondering if anybody has a company subscription and is willing to help a girl out. I am willing to pay $$ for a username&password so I can export 1 or 2 data sets.

Thinking about transitioning from advertising (10 years as a copywriter) into public relations. Has anyone in this bowl done that? What types of roles should I be looking for?

I don't know if this is a recent change but I’m seeing postings for junior copywriter/community manager roles. Have these roles always been attached or posted at a junior level? Is this merged role worth considering as someone young in the industry with more traditional intern and freelance copy experience.
