btw: this is how i dress now
I’d love to hear your feedback about a recent article in Marie Claire about women and fashion at Google…
The article: Women at Google
The photos: Fashion for Work at the Google HQ (requires Flash 9 to see photos, even though it doesn’t tell you, it just blanks out.)
What do you make of this?
Some of the photos didn’t go to press, including one that included *gasp* actual Googlers, in a glass conference room and no laptops, with the female “Googler” in that bright yellow jacket/short-short-shorts combo and hooker heels, pressed against the glass. (Nice, right? That’s how I spend all my meetings.)
So – in case you were under the common misconception that we wear jeans and t-shirts around here, guess again! After a while you get used to the $4000 ensembles with F-me pumps and micro-mini lamé dresses. Riding a bike in one of those is a bitch though!

the thing i noticed most about that photo spread was how smart your coworkers seem.
lol! you kill me. smart AND oddly shiny.
How do you know what you wear to work? When you swipe out, they deneuralize you, right? ;)
My theory is the GooglePlex is the new Area 51. I just wish someone would capture of photo of a Google-branded flying car… I know you must have one hiding around there, somewhere. Hybrids? Bah… that’s so early 2000′s.
You know you really want to dress like that deep down inside…it looks sooo comfy!! I expecially like the super high heels…you know, the ones that make your feel feel all tingely!!
It smacks of those “You’ve come a long way, baby!” ads to me.
And, damn. There’s over $6000 of clothes in the shot of the actual Google management.
