One of the things that struck me while at the PGA Merchandising Show is how guys’ golf clothes are basically business casual work clothes with different shoes. Slacks and a polo, or add a sweater vest if you want to be fancy. For ladies, it’s a completely different story: golf clothes look like athletic clothes,…
People’s reputations can be enhanced or diminished simply by the fact that they get talked about on the golf course. Advancements and promotions have happened because people play golf with the higher ups. This isn’t just the case in the for-profit sector—it’s true at nonprofits as well.

A few weeks ago I went to the PGA Merchandising Show in Orlando. It was tons of fun, and I had a great time. However, I stressed about what to pack for days. Give me a business conference, and I can tell you what to wear. But a golf conference? I’m not a frequent golfer…
Packing for a business trip can be full of anxiety. Not only do you have to pick out exactly what you’re going to wear for the next 3, 4, 5, or more days, but you also have to condense a beauty routine (that has taken you years to develop) into 3 oz bottles and a…

Accessories help you create more outfits with fewer clothing items. There are a few criteria that I keep in mind when choosing what jewelry to pack. Don’t bring everything you own.…
Brrrrr! It is cooooold. We are in the midst of winter weather here in Texas, and I know much of the country is the same. Here it is around 30 degrees, but a friend of mine in Colorado just posted that the high is -5 (the high!! Wow.). Any business travel from now until at…
Business traveler in your life? Here are a few things you can pick up for them this holiday season that they will be sure to love. Suitcase. The foundation for a business travel toolkit is the suitcase. I have the Victorinox Werks 20 inch and love it, but there are plenty of options out there.…
It’s finally starting to feel like fall here in Texas. Mustard is one of the quintessential colors of the season! Every time I reach for a necklace or belt it seems I pick up one of my mustard-yellow pieces. In honor of this lovely hue, I put together a list of accessories that would work…
