What is your Trad girlfriend wearing and listening to today?

How about this for a new thread?

I went to work early today, so I was out of the house before my wife was up and dressed. The last time I saw her, she was wearing a flannel robe from the Vermont Flannel Company and listening to the sound of our two beagles snoring.

 

[Reuben]

I'd imagine she's wearing a suit and listening to the servers whining.

 

[Bama87]

Scrubs listening to a lecture.

 

[hardline_42]

Woolovers sweater, Rugby OCBD, jeans and Bean Boots, listening to the sordid details of the lives of elementary school children.

 

[WouldaShoulda]

My TG listens to classical on the way to work and classic rock on the way home.

I can't remember what she was wearing this morning...

Waiters or computers? ;-)

 

[Duvel]

The one on the right. I can't get her to give up that t-shirt. We're listening to Goo together.

Let's be honest, what're the odds of her wearing a suit regularly and working an IT job?

Depends. Is your girlfriend upr_crust?

Working IT while sitting in a server room? 0%

 

[Fading Fast]

Jeans, nautical striped cotton sweater and minnetonka mocs.

Doesn't really matter, as long as your wife doesn't find out.

 

[Reuben]

Turns out I was wrong, yesterday was her day off. She was wearing a Barbour, jodhpurs and paddock boots while listening to the chickens, horses, and dogs.

 

[Suit of Nettles]

Sitting at her desk, listening to and marking the score of Erwartung, in an RL OCBD with the sleeves rolled up, LE chinos, and a pair of Manitoulin Island moccasins, with a spectacularly lazy cat for company.

 

[Jouster]

She was wearing blue and white check (tight!) flannel pants, a white shirt and a pink cardigan. Pretty trad, actually. She looked a bit like an extra on "Peggy Sue got Married".

She was listening to NPR, followed by a regularly scheduled litany of random complaints and entreaties from our son.

As an intern, yes.

I do this every day when I'm at my desk at the corporate office.

 

[DoghouseReilly]

And my TG is listening to Korean pop and I took this entirely too literally.

got the wife some Hilfiger for Valentines Day. Preppy physical therapist

 

[Dhaller]

My wife is a VC (venture capitalist) and oscillates between working from the home office (where she wear "home wear", usually yoga pants and top and a fleece vest or jacket if it's cool enough) and lunches/business trips/meetings (when she's dressed usually in either Dior or Valentino, her current favorites; they're pretty classic).

If she takes a break I sometimes hear her playing the piano, and that's usually Mozart; she was listening to Schumann yesterday (prompting me to comment that no one plays Schumann lately.)

That said, my wife isn't "trad" at all, and doesn't particularly like the style on me, either (she's always suggesting updating my "look"...)
