Grace O'Malley Took a Meeting ~ Garment Dyed Crewneck

Asked for the Meeting and Got It

The hardest meeting on anyone's calendar is the one where the other side holds all the cards. One Irish woman sailed to Greenwich for exactly that meeting. For the daughter of Irish grandparents, the founder who walked into the investor room anyway, and the woman who books the hard conversation instead of dodging it.

• The Verified Meeting: Grace O'Malley (c.1530 to c.1603) met Queen Elizabeth I at Greenwich in September 1593 to petition for the release of her sons and half-brother, held by Sir Richard Bingham.
• St Patrick's Day, Upgraded: A gift with more backbone than a shamrock.
• Women in Business: For the colleague who negotiates like she has a fleet waiting outside.

Every crew has that one sweatshirt that ends up on every voyage, and this is the one ~ a Comfort Colors garment-dyed crewneck with a cotton face over cozy fleece, a relaxed fit with a rolled-forward shoulder and that broken-in feel from the very first wear ~ made for bonfires on the beach, chilly harbor mornings and plotting the next adventure
