Outfit Of The Day For November 2, 2012: High/Low Dressing On Casual Friday

I like to wear jeans at least one day a week. (OK, maybe more like four days). But you can still be chic even if you dress down for “Casual Friday.” I think this Smythe jacket adds a bit of confidence with jeans, even over my men’s Hanes white undershirt! This is a great example of high/low dressing.
