The Myth of Casual Friday

I was listening to the radio the other day, and the host said that he thought that women get a raw deal when it comes to dressing at the workplace. That men can wear things and totally get away with it, but if a woman comes in wearing sandals she is immediately called out.

And then there is casual Friday. On casual Friday, I usually wear jeans, with a similar shirt/shoes that I would wear during the week. Because I look young, and I have to remain professional. So today I wore something similar to this:
