Mastering the Office Dress Code
Office style can be confusing. Here's how to kill it from the cubicle to the corner office.
It's 2017 and most workplaces these days have relaxed their office dress codes. But even if you're not wearing jeans and T-shirts on the regular, that doesn't mean you can't enjoy the comfort and style of a cool pair of kicks. Sneakers can easily ground a more office-appropriate outfit (be it a dress shirt and a pair of chinos or even a modern suit) so long as they're minimally designed and free of conspicuous scuffs and holes. The idea is to bend the rules slightly with a knowing wink, not flaunt your casualness in the face of corporate drones playing it safe. Here are ten solid options you can wear now and all through the fall.
