Introduction I'm your typical type A Washingtonienne. Preppy girl-next-door type moves to the District with ambitions of changing the world and "doing good". Struggling with the concept of being a lady who lunches or a girl with the corner office. I say, "Why not both?" Civil and Chic is the go to guide for the stylish civil servant (...and no, that isn't an oxymoron!).
