All days are office days unless I'm at a conference. I must admit most of the time though I wear jeans and dress up now and again.
I love dressing up in a nice pencil dress. But I'm most comfortable in jeans ballet flats xx |

I own a stonemasonry business but specialize in memorials/gravestones. So I have to be smart when selling to customers but I am more comfortable in my rough and ready look.
I've gone for the riggers x  |

I haven't worked in an office for 10 years and I hated the office clothes. It's outdoor clothes and steel toe-cap boots for me now (which are hilarious as I have tiny size 4 feet) |

"I'm expected to be suited and booted for work even on dress down Friday's!!
In what way does the 'dress town's bit manifest? You leave your tie off?  "
Yes, and unbutton the top two buttons of a crisp white shirt |

I'm enjoying being in jeans while I'm on maternity leave as its a no no at work. My job isn't quite office work, isn't quite casual. I teach and I fear sometimes I look quite mumsy. Get me on parents evening though and it's sharp dress and killer heels. |

For me a suit is for funerals and weddings.
I know it wouldn't last very long in my line of work! So its jeans, t shirt, boots, during the summer, jeans, shirt, boots and sometimes wellies during the winter. |

And for all those undecided, you can combine the two..! Why not try the Hi vis vest and boots over a slightly crumpled sharp(ish) suit look.
Like me today onsite with a client.
Admittedly it looks a lot worse that it sounds ! |
