Found myself slipping farther and farther away from how I used to be (somewhat fashionable and well put together). Now I feel like since I switched divisions within the company, I went from tailored to overly casual....almost "sloppy." Dressing up is out of place where I am now, but I just feel so blah and live I need a refresh.

You can still dress casual but not sloppy. Think white sneakers/ loafers with well-fitting jeans and sweaters/ tops. Still casual but make sure the clothes are clean and fit well.

One thing that has really helped me is to follow influencers with my body type whose style I like and create outfits based on what they wear. A lot of “fashion” is more about styling the clothes you wear rather than the clothes themselves.

Question for my friend at KPMG. Her MDs and Partners have been directing her to eat her hours. If she charges over 45 hours she will get emails from management and when she charges over 65 she got a call from a PPMD. I work at deloitte and have never been told to do this and thought it honestly was illegal. Thoughts? It doesn’t seem right that she’s having to eat those hours and feel scared when she’s working til 10/12 every night.
