Business Casual

I think you could pick up some nice things at Coldwater Creek (before they go out of business), Talbots, J. Crew, Banana Republic, L.L. Bean, or Land's End.

Are you looking for anything in particular?

The bay sometimes has good options...

Depends on what you are looking for and what business casual means where you are working but just about any place will have some clothes that would work out. The Q also has some nice choices.

Depends on your budget, but for me, I look for pieces that I can mix and match and add to it as time goes on. Just about everything I have can be worn in more than one way and mixed with the other pieces.

I was looking on line on what you need in your wardrobe so you have something to wear for every occasion and they always say you need a white blouse, dress pants, skirt, jacket, cardigan, dark wash jeans, a black dress and some accessories to help tie it all together. Stick with a couple of neutral colors and add a pop of color with your accessories. You can add a dress and change it up with the cardigan or jacket too.

I think it is fun to read that stuff and I also like looking at outfits that are put together already and get ideas from that.

One item I find that I use a lot is a jacket. Different styles and weights for different times of the year.

I like busygirl's rundown on the wardrobe. Was going to say that the most useful thing, IMO, is a good pair of well tailored black pants that will go casual or dressy. More $$$ maybe, but well worth the expense.

Agree and black pants to me is a must have.
