On Muscongus Bay, you can get your lobster dinner one of two ways. One is what I call classy style at the Anchor Inn, where you get silverware, dinner plates, a tablecloth, and some wine.

The sound of icicles dripping at dawn was what did it for me. The verdict was in: Maine is beautiful any time of year. Even February.

In June 2009, I took my first trip out to New England, a road trip that consisted of following hunches on locations that sounded pleasant. I learned that there are no slums on Cape Cod. Waterbury, Vermont has great pizza shops and pretty sunsets amongst the folds of the Green Mountains. Boston has freaky-looking 17^th-century gravestones. It was all wonderful.

Part 2: Looking the Part

If you haven’t already read “Part 1: Looking the Part,” make sure to take a look. In part two, Claire shares how to select the right pieces, and how to put an outfit together…

To select the right pieces, take your time. Building a complete professional wardrobe takes years because the idea is to build a wardrobe that will last for years to come. To build a quality wardrobe you do not want to buy too many pieces at one time, especially in the beginning when you are learning what works for you. Buy classic, timeless pieces instead of trendy pieces that will be out of style in a year or two. For example, five years from now houndstooth will still look fabulous while ikat will look dated. Classic pieces have a good sheen or texture to them. Think faux silk and tight weaves. Stay away from jersey knit and other fabrics that look casual.

To some, clothing may simply be considered fabric, thread, and stitches that allow us to feel comfortable in many kinds of weather. The warm wool of a winter sweater keeps us comfortable in the winter, and the the light softness of a summer linen is perfect for a hot day. To me, I see clothing as much more.

On Mondays, after our weekly Korean class, my friends and I would meet on the staircase outside our lecture rooms at the City Hall building and head off to Namdaemun Market. Walking down the street, we vacated the neatly paved, landscaped corporate buildings and entered into a less refined area of Seoul.
