What to Wear?

Posted on by admin

You want to look spiffy at the upcoming W-L 71 reunion events, but not overdressed. So what to wear? (Probably not your gym suit.)

Friday night – Casual’s the word. Jeans and a nice shirt/top are fine.

Saturday night – Only slightly fancier. No coats and ties (unless you want), no sequins and gowns. Think business casual. Or casual business.

Sunday morning – You’re on your own!

Need some guidance? Lifestyle brand Jaxson Maximus has a few ideas.
