A: I don’t own any sweatpants. I’m almost always in a dress. My husband is from Buenos Aires. When I visit there, people get dressed to go to the grocery store. Same thing in Italy. You dress up to get bananas from the local market. It doesn’t have to be a special thing. When I take my kids to school, I put on my cute dress. Why? It makes me feel good. You could be just walking the dog. I think it’s good for the spirit. This is Minnesota, so people go to weddings in jeans. OK, that’s a choice. But you don’t have to follow that rule.
Q: If I really want to go to town, where are the best local places to show off?
A: The fun places in the North Loop that I love are Maison Margaux and the Argentinian place called Porzana. It’s always fun to dress up and go for a drink or dinner at those restaurants. I like Heather’s in south Minneapolis. They have a lovely menu. It goes without saying that Barbette is on the list. It’s lovely all the time. Moody lighting is always a great backdrop when you’re having fun with fashion.
