As part of the Japanese Business Law class I was taking in Tokyo this summer, we got to visit their patent office and Supreme Court. I welcomed the opportunity to get out of the classroom but the intense heat and humidity of Tokyo summers was making it a little difficult to enjoy wearing business attire. My clerkship in Seoul presented the same challenge of having to dress for the office in the most unconducive weather conditions. I quickly simplified my looks to a light blouse over a silk camisole and a pencil skirt. A sacrifice of one layer needed to be made in the interest of preserving my sanity

After finishing this post I will be driving out to see an old friend of mine, Alissa, who just had a baby. I haven’t seen her since she moved outside of Toronto to the countryside in preparation for her little one. For as long as I could remember she has been a quintessential “city girl,” a fashionable “from lattes to pilates” kind of chica. She keeps insisting that I need a GPS to find her now
. It will be interesting to see her outside of her element, and considering that she is planning on moving back soon the opportunity won’t last too long.
