We’ve all heard of what types of clothes you should wear a business office, if you're a doctor, or, say a personal trainer. Name a lot of professions and there will be an obvious dress code for them. But for other jobs, it's not simple - particularly in the media or creative industries, with a new array of jobs being created seemingly every day, it can be hard to know what to wear. And then there's that age-old question. What if you make podcasts for a living? What if you’re only the co-host of said podcast and not the main deal? And, what if you live in a really warm climate?
Well, if you’re confused on what to wear in that situation ModCloth has the solution for you. They’ve updated their 2016 Podcast Co-Host Shirt and given it a sleeveless pair, to satisfy your every ‘podcast co-host who lives in warm weather’s’ needs. According to Modcloth, ‘even a late night in the studio deserves your best style effort’ and you need to ‘make your outfit just as clever as the insights you share with your digital audience.’
The Internet is having a great time with the new announcement, mainly because you never really get to see what a podcast host is wearing and, to be fair, if I was podcast host I would take advantage of the fact that no one could see me doing my job and wear pajamas every day of the week and not a ‘loose and flowy’ top. One Twitter user said that the person least likely to wear such a top would be, you guessed it, a podcaster. However, loads of people said it was a cute shirt. So maybe ignore the name and see the shirt for what it is, a cute spring top. And if you know a podcast co-host then, well, I guess you found their birthday present.
