So maybe your work week has been as gray and dull as a combover. Your office wardrobe? Likely ditto. When you're at your wits’ end and feel ready to slide into a bathtub full of gin, some jazz-age rejuvenation is a smart move. We vote that you check out the killer one-two combo at UpStairs on the Square (91 Winthrop Street, Cambridge, 617.864.1933) this Sunday, November 1, to cure your blues. First, from 7 to 9 p.m., head upstairs to find a variety of holiday dresses from Davis Square’s Artifaktori — the vintage shop carries full-skirted ’50s frocks, ’70s boho gowns, and lots more. Once you’ve finished perusing all the finery, head downstairs for some dinner and dancing to the tunes of local jazz singers Miss Tess and Rachael Price (pictured), who have joined forces on a new project, The Sweet & Low Down. The chanteuses will be ascending the stage at 9 p.m., keeping toes tapping til midnight, and sweetening your mood so that Monday’s arrival won’t seem so bad after all.
