Has Business Casual Gone Too Far

Get rid of the tee shirt that has your life motto or philosophy statement written across it. A simple white or colored tee works best.
Get rid of anything dirty, worn, torn. If you wash your car in it or wear it to clean out your backyard it's not right for the office.
Get rid of anything tight. That goes for guys too. Loose the tight jeans, tank tops or anything that is suggestive or bare. Short shorts are a no no and are in very bad taste.

Get rid of the backpack and save it for weekends. Invest in a good briefcase.

Get rid of the baseball cap. Save if for the softball game.

Get rid of your favorite tattoo, I'm not saying that you should go to local dermatologist and get it burned off, but at least cover it. The same goes for body piercing.

Get rid of those dirty sneakers .

And women should never ever go braless! I don't care if you're a 32AA, you ALWAYS wear a bra to the office.

What works best: A basic blazer in navy, black or tan over a great pair of pressed jeans and a white tee shirt. Denim shirts with khaki pants or skirts.

The look you want here is professional yet casual . If you still haven't a clue as to how to put it together, here's a tip. take a look at your boss's, boss.
