Sometimes a pop of color elevates the outfit to a whole new level and this touch of yellow in Jayda’s outfit made her look absolutely perfect to crush her next interview. And, since it’s now officially summer, it was so very fitting for all the gorgeous sunshine we’ve been having!☀️ Styled by our long-time volunteer and invaluable board member, Robin, Jayda was a joy to work with and we are rooting for her success in all she goes on to accomplish. At Suited, we stress the importance of how the clothing makes you feel and it is our goal to ensure everyone finds clothing that makes them feel empowered and ready to conquer the world. ❤️ #SuitedForChange #WomenEmpowerment #CommunitySupport #ChangingLives

From March to mid-May, Baker Tilly US DC Office has led an amazing professional women’s clothing and accessories drive at their firm! Sponsored by their office’s Growth and Retention of Women’s (GROW) group, this drive was widely successful and we greatly appreciate everyone who donated clothing and organized this event. It is with the support and partnerships of organizations and groups like Baker Tilly that help Suited for Change thrive and make our mission come to life! We want to extend our most heartfelt thanks for Baker Tilly for working with us. Donations were made by both the firm’s team members and Baker Tilly’s professional service clients – so a huge shout out to everyone who contributed to this drive and a special thank you to PilieroMazza PLLC for their efforts. Thank you, Baker Tilly, for thinking of us and supporting our organization! We loved getting to work with you and are so happy to have you in our community. ❤️
