Black & White Business

How do you guys feel about workplace dress codes? Would you prefer a more professional dress environment or is something more casual more up your alley?

Working at a start up company comes with a few fun perks, one being the casual dress code that makes getting dressed in the morning a breeze. Truthfully I’ll admit that there have been days where I’ve showed up to work in yoga pants and sneakers – more days than not recently I hate to admit. As a Human Resources professional, it’s not the best look for someone that’s running some critical functions of a company. Last week I decided it was time to get up and add a little professionalism back to my business wardrobe.

I recently purchased these cropped pants from ASOS (my go-to for business clothing) and I love the sleek fit and cropped style are not only fashion forward and modern, but are also office appropriate. I paired them with one of my favorite button down blouses from Express, a must have if you are a busty woman. I tend to get cold in the office so I love the fact that I can pull down the sleeves when things get chilly but roll them up when things get too warm.

So what’s your go to summer business casual outfit?
