Just landed a new role in PE (IR/marketing) and not sure what to do about dress code. It looks like the office is more casual (Patagonia vests, khakis, dress pants, button downs, etc.) but given I’m one of a few females & will be the youngest female in the team, any suggestions are welcome!

I’ve largely worked in business casual workplaces up until this point, so any recs on brands, good suit jackets & similar attire would be immensely helpful.

Also for reference, I’m in NYC so a little more formal than San Fran.

Hard to go wrong with MM LaFleur, Theory, and Reiss. No need for a matching suit if that’s the office dress code.

The good news is: I wouldn’t worry about it too much. The men are just going to assume everything you wear is fine.

I work with PE clients and typically wear slacks + a nice blouse or sweater and usually have some sort of a jacket available if I think a meeting might come up. I LOVE colors and use them quite liberally. My go-to brands are Reiss and Veronica Beard. One of our MDs has killer style and finds good options at H&M and Zara though!

Bumping this for more attention - just want into the office yesterday and the VPs and Partners had on full suits yesterday!

Does anyone have any button down alternatives for tops to go under jackets? Realizing how much I don’t like them but want more options if I can.

Need advice. I have a client who just can't stop getting in their own way.

I can't keep anyone on this client because their process is so brutally and unnecessarily time-consuming, and I can't keep pulling all-nighters just trying to respond to all the questions. What do I do?

Last week team dynamics took a turn for the worst (even tho in each retro the team always commend each other, you would think team work is great). Team members get agitated with each other for being slow. Team members coming across rude and brash (the same ones are difficult to get hold to offer support, time is money is what someone said💰, the craziest was the client accidently sharing her whatsapp screen, commenting on people's feedback to what she was presenting OMG 😲 How was your week?
