More Progress: +90

As we all know it is dangerous to allow loss to pile upon loss—I decided to craft a more stimulating offering today. After yesterday’s drop, I realized that the relationship between my apparel and the nation’s economy might be more complex than I thought, I decided to pay more attention to the full outfit today.

I had a presentation, and so I would be dressing more formally. I gave the matter a great deal of thought. I took my beloved Clae shoes—Costeau, in berry—out of their box, and put them over a pair of white socks. The bottom layer was completed by a pair of green hanes boxer-briefs (green, I thought, might help to stimulate the economy) I continued with a pair of dark gray slacks, a black leather belt from fossil, a white cotton undershirt, and the previous day’s Red Express shirt. I know, it seems like a risky play, and this as not lost on me at the time, but I truly felt a color coordinated offering was what our nation was crying out for. I finished the look with my stainless steel Michael Cors watch, and headed off to class.

The result? A turbulent day, in which the DJI came out 90 points to the good. An improvement over the day before, but not as good as Monday.
