“Changing it up on the reg”

Whether Janet Yellen, President Barack Obama’s latest pick to head the Federal Reserve, proves to be the financial genius our sputtering economy so desperately needs, remains to be seen.

At least we know her mind won’t be preoccupied with haute couture.

Here’s the black-on-black ensemble she sported last month when President Barack Obama officially nominated her: 

And her battle gear of choice for today’s nomination hearing on Capitol Hill:
 

Mind you, nobody has ever accused HOH of being particularly stylish. But we do manage to switch up outfits on the reg.

Yes, that is something. She’s obviously a disgusting pig who never changes her clothes.

But then, that must be a requirement of the job.  Take a look at this guy:

And no it doesn’t count as “changing it up on the reg” to switch ties.

Seriously, this is just disgusting. Professional women in conservative fields wear conservative uniforms the same way the men do. Yellen is wearing quite a smart outfit that’s completely appropriate for her age and her position and it looks good. She has no more obligation to “switch up outfits on the reg” than Ben Bernanke or any of the other million men who wear the same dreary dark suits to work every day.

Jesus. There’s really no hope for women if even Janet Yellen gets judged for her wardrobe.
