FASHION: GET SHIRTY
It's for all those women who complain that men who wear suits have it easy: the shirt-dress makes getting dressed in the morning as simple as falling out of bed. For the working woman, it's the perfect versatile solution. Wear it short, long, belted or loose, and have one up your sleeve for every occasion. You don't even have to decide what tie to put on
