[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Interesting thread. In DC -- or at least in the slice of DC I know -- being put together is generally a plus but being too fashionable can cost you credibility points. I can think of a particular practitioner in my field who is quite smart and good at what she does but made the choice to go all in on fashion and generally looking good (which, at a certain age, usually causes one to start looking frozen, and not good). Her name is often met with an eye roll. It's not fair but women are still judged on appearance more than men are. And if you're career is premised on being perceived as smart, experienced, and having good judgment, being too fashionable can undermine that perception. [/quote] No, that just jealous women tearing each other down. It happens at all SES levels.[/quote]
