Casual Friday has become Stupid!

Plum passed a preview of our survey results to some friends. Apparently, the results struck a nerve... we've decided to post Fash' email, with permission, of course. The comments by Fash Trash are her own and not representative of No Guru or Plum.

Casual Friday has become Stupid!

Surprising Early Survey Results about Casual Friday!

First off, we at Plum were overwhelmed by the response to our Casual Friday survey.  Over 2,500 customers responded so far, therefore we can confidently state some preliminary results.

We were surprised to see how many respondents have Casual Friday; a full 50%.  But not everyone likes it because there are hundreds of examples of how it has become ‘slovenly Friday’ for many employees.   ... read the full post and reader comments

Wearing dresses

So I just bought the cutest dress at Plum. I don't normally pay $145 for a dress, but it's super cute and different, and comfortable. Okay, what I like about it the most is it's really flattering. My bod looks great!And another great thing about  dresses-they make getting dressed in the morning really easy. And though I'm very happily married- I do notice another thing about wearing dresses...guys LOVE them! There's something so intrinsically feminine about a dress, that I guess dudes respond to! Really! Single ladies take note and give it a try on your next first date!This pic is the dress I bought.Soooo cute on!  ... read the full post and reader comments
