Day To Night

I wore this last Friday, when I had a full day of teaching and went to the theater at night – my co-workers got free tickets to a theater festival in Hanoi, so I thought it would be fun to check it out. I wanted to dress up a bit for the theater, but not too much, because I knew I would have to be in the clothes for 10+ hours. In the end I decided on something simple, comfy, but put-together enough that you could wear on a night out.
T-shirt: Banana Republic, Blazer: Warehouse, Pants: thrifted, Shoes: local shop, Brooch: gift (an interesting story behind this brooch – it was made from a piece of rubble from an old museum in Greifswald and sold as souvenir after the building was renovated. My sister just went there for a business trip and bought it for me.)

It’s a nice look for you Salazar. As I always say, very professional but with a casual appeal to it. I say you nailed it.
I love the title of this post too. The dichotomy of it fits very well with your outfit; the black and white look is really cool and one that I often like to do as well.
So cool that you and your co-workers got the free tickets to that festival. My job did a similar thing for the premiere of that new movie “Fantastic Beasts” that just came out (though I think we had to pay a small fee for the tickets). I thought about going as I thought it would be fun to do something with my fellow co-workers that’s not work related. But I’ve been so burned out lately that all I really want to do is stay home, rest and catch up on my reading. Maybe next time.
How was the festival? Hope you had a great time!
Thanks, Mike. We saw a German black comedy – there is no dialogue, all the actors wore masks and used gestures to tell the story. It was fun.
Cool. Sounds sort of like pantomime. Now that’s a test of an actor’s true abilities; to be able to tell a story by gestures alone.
It works really well for both events!! I like the idea of that brooch too! Fabulous!
