THE DRESS
As you have read above, I began the first week of May with as hectic a schedule as I can recall, but hectic in the most wonderful way possible. On May 5, I taught that cooking class in Charleston. Tuesday, May 6, was reserved for interviewing NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in New York. I made my way back down South for the Wednesday morning speech in Richmond with Dean Manigault on May 7. I decided to make it easy on myself by packing one pair of shoes and one dress.
This strategy made me think: Is there on dress appropriate for teaching a hands-on cooking class, interviewing the NFL commissioner (live) and giving a speech to hundreds of women? YES, there is! J. McLaughlin dresses do not wrinkle, look great on every body type, and can be thrown in the wash and hung to dry. What's better than that?
While demonstrating the sautéing of shrimp & grits, my dress inevitably got splattered.
But after the plane ride to New York, a quick wash in the sink, and hanging to dry in the Big Apple, the dress was ready for its AOL TV debut the next day.
Thank you, J. McLaughlin!
