Oh I’m so here for this!!!! Thank you Erin! I buy Expess blazers,a lot. Ok Erin I have to brag on you!!! Since changing my Boho look to your styles of suits for work I’ve gotten so many compliments! The younger girls at the office say I win the best dressed in our office. So much fun wearing classy looks! Thanks Erin

[@BusbeeStyle]

LOVE that, Noni! Thanks so much for sharing that with me. SO glad to have been able to help in some small way! xo

[@amyhurley4670]

I’m a teacher, and following your guidelines has me getting all sorts of compliments from students and staff. I do find I can get away with nicer shorts (not Bermudas) at school so long as I style them with a blazer and loafers. However, at my former school, probably not.

[@jenn8179]

Oo! A blazer and loafers! That's my kind of outfit!

[@lauraserratos3106]

I'm a teacher too! How I dress has always depended on administration. I usually dress business-casual. My latest administrator does not approve of jeans or leggings except on Friday. I've never attempted wearing shorts, but I would wear them if styled with a blazer. I may try it this upcoming school year since it will still be summer when I go back!

[@ritastutler1470]

Love that u dress up...I have seen some teachers wear ratty jeans and big sloppy tee shirts. I think kids have more respect if the teacher cares about their appearance...nothing wrong with a nice pair of jeans , more fitted top...nice shoes.

I'm a teacher too, and we're getting a new principal. So far dresses are all good, regardless of length, but I need layers or jackets to top . Your tips are always helpful to dress appropriately.

Hey Erin! I love your content and appreciate how positive you are. I wanted to also tell you thank you for how inclusive you make your language. I have noticed a shift with you in the last year or so where you started saying partner or significant other instead of spouse. This is such a small thing, but really makes an inclusive impact. As the mama of an LGBTQ kiddo I appreciate content creators that think of everyone when using language. I also think it says a lot about who you are as a person and your character. I know standing with and saving space for others can make some business owners concerned about the financial impact on making such decisions. I’m grateful that you have chosen kindness and love. Thank you!

[@BusbeeStyle]

[@rosej9686]

Same. I have a white blazer but don't wear it for that reason and also because it's way too hot for my commute!

[@BusbeeStyle]

I totally hear you, Danielle! Thanks for the suggestion. I'd suggest just taking inspiration from these looks, but fitting it into your own personal style and your own office needs! So if you love the blazer look, go for a more casual one that is a linen blend, and pair it with jeans...or do the dresses and skirts but leave the blazer off! Thanks so much for watching! xo

[@mrswhite645]

I get it. Something that I do is wear a brighter shirt. Even a bright cami under my white button down and allow the top buttons to be open to show the color. I also wear pale pink pants for example, instead of khakis or a colored or white loafer or oxford in summer. Cole Haan and Coach have good options and I get lots of compliments. They last for years. Fun light weight socks are a conversation piece too.

I work in technology. I'm a Business Systems/Programmer Analyst and work at a community college. When I started my career, I always dressed in a suite, slacks, blouses, dresses. Over the years, the work environment dress moved to more casual Friday everyday. I still wear an occasional suit, but really my go to attire is pants or jeans and a blazer - this is my uniform mostly. I love my blazers! They always finish my outfit and give me a more profession casual look in the office. I always have a blazer or professional looking jacket, so if I have an unexpected meeting and I'm wearing jeans, I can up my game and look more professional for my meeting. Love you video's Erin! Love your style and encouragement to have fun dressing as we age, and I'm a mature women who likes to look nice and dress sharp!

Hi Erin, I love your videos. I am a co-owner and a COO in an energy company - it’s our family business and we are more or less smart-casual, but we always appreciate when staff is trying to wear smart & stylish clothes and it visibly helps them to get “into the work mood”, they take their job much more seriously and it’s definitely much more professional than just be casual. Thanks for great styling tips.

[@oklibrarian]

Hi! I'm the Dean of the Library at a medium size university. (side note--I've lost quite a bit of weight over the past 6 months and this channel has been INVALUABLE with revamping my work style for my new body!). My uniform is slacks or jeans, a top, and a blazer for meetings. I usually do a neutral top and more vibrant blazer or vice versa. I'm a sucker for fun necklaces--kicks up an outfit without requiring too much thought. This summer I've been wearing a lot of navy and white as my neutrals, with bold pinks and lighter blues for color. I also invested in a few linen jackets this summer as part of my larger wardrobe refresh, and I LOVE them. Today is a no-meeting day and summers in higher ed are a bit more dressed down, so I'm in grey loafers and slacks, a white tee, and a pink, green and blue tropical-ish print button up layered on top and tied around the waist. Finished the look with one of those multi-strand paper clip necklaces in silver. If I'd had a meeting today I would have ditched the button-up and gone for one of the more colorful linen blazers, either a hot pink or aqua.

I'm a high school Science teacher and get dressed up every day. I don't dress like a typical Science teacher!! For a long time, I used to wear a lot of dresses (one and done) but now I am findining I'm loving separates. On the bottom half, I tend to wear dramatic pants or skirts. Then for tops I like to have a bit of stretch that allow me to move my arms around. I mostly wear some kind of heel. However, on the days when I teach each lesson I tend to wear my Superga one inch sole white leather sneakers. They are so comfy!!

I am a compliance consultant in the employee benefits industry. Normally I work from home, but have been to around 4-5 business conferences this year. I've had success with the blazer over the maxi dress look. It was super hot outside, but freezing in those hotel ballrooms. I took off the blazer and changed into sandals for the very casual mixer dinner at a BBQ joint. Worked well. So, that will be my go-to summer professional wear this year.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Great, easy way to go from day to night looks! Thanks for watching, Sarah!! xo

Erin you are so beautiful inside and out. You are a wealth of information. I hope one day you will write a reference type book. You have taught me so much! I am a registered nurse, yet I have stayed at home to raise our four children. My husband is a physician. When I step foot in a business type setting I love to apply as many of Erin’s principles as I can. I need to focus more on the details of the accessorizing. I would say I need to have more summer type of handbags to complement my outfit such as a basket weave bag, a white bag, more brightly pop of color bags. I love how Erin emphasized wearing white, the colorful outfits, maxi dresses can be extra feminine….and many, many, more important points. Thank you dear sweet Erin❤️

High school teacher here. The more casual the other admin/teachers get the more I step it up. Sure, you can teach in anything, but the students pay attention… They don’t even realize they are treating me with more respect than the teachers in jeans, but they do. (Works on co-workers/admin too!) Tip for wearing white pants: I usually pair them with a long beige cardigan that I can take off and on. Great layer when the AC gets too much and covers the spots that might get dirty!

That is what I did too...I was a psych professor and college administrator I taught once in awhile, also I was asst director of a state education agency at another time in my career. I retired at 50 to sail the Caribbean with my mate after spending my entire adult life in higher ed either as a student or professionally. Now we are retired just outside a beautiful Spanish colonial town in Central America, perched on the side of an extinct volcano, two other volcanos in the distance one sporadically active....at a safe distance. Year round Spring climate daytime, blazers or jackets at night when it is cooler. Professional and businesswomen here retired or not, dress in blazers and slacks or mostly. Many fly to MIami to shop once or twice a year. Several fly together and make a girls week of it. These local women and some retirees from the US, Canada, and Europe are my friends. My daughter, a just retired Coast Guard helicopter pilot, lives in the Ft. Lauderdale area, so I tend to shop there when visiting. We all have an active social life together, the women and their mates, lots of restaurant dates as groups and social activities. Funny how we dress very like we all did when working. Many especially like the British country look for casual clothing riding boots, tweed jackets, etc very popular here, like old Ralph Lauren ads. That really surprised me, the English country look in Latin America.Except for the boots that was often what I wore in my career, except I come from an era when female administrators had to wear skirted suits, pumps and pantyhose. I always joked my happiest day would be the day I made a bonfire of all my pantyhose the day I retired. It was all bathing suits and shorts on the sailboat before we settled here...the most free I have ever been was that period, just us, the Caribbean, anchored off as many tiny non inhabited islands as we could find...we carried 300 books...a serene life...this one is nice too, feels like we have fallen into a tropical Isabel Allende novel. Sublime. I loved my career and I have loved my retirement..I have been so lucky in life. Best regards to you, I hope you enjoy yourself as much as I did.

You explained this Avoid these mistakes really well! Thanks, for the great points about what should I avoid for my summer outfits. I'll remember those tips for next time. This really made me think about how it can me feel more confident and happy.

[@tammichadwell1277]

Hi Erin. I enjoy your videos and fashion. I worked for 40 years in the legal field as a secretary/paralegal. The large firms that I worked for expected the staff to be about as professionally dressed as the attorneys (sans the attorney's salary!). I remember at my last firm, when they allowed casual Fridays, I was amazed at how many people thought that meant you could wear ratty jeans and sandals. They finally gave an ultimatum and said that if casual Friday was to continue there would be no more blue jeans (they did concede to other-colored jeans). This was in central Florida!

PERFECT. Sales Analyst and thankfully, I work from home now. BUT we had a very casual work wear pre pandemic. I believe it is too easy to get lax in that environment. I recall someone asked to go home and change due to the form fitting outfit I get it. Sometimes when we are younger we really don't have good guidance on work wear. I appreciate you putting this out there for all age groups.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thanks so much for watching, Caroline! As someone who's worked from home for a long time now...it does help me to get dressed up a bit, even when I'm just staying home. Always important to dress for you! xo

Hi Erin! I'm Kathleen, and I've been following you and your great style advice since the beginning! I'm a librarian and no one really cares what I wear as long as I look professional, but I like to dress for me because it makes me happy. I'm often in jeans or very casual pants, dresses and skirts, but I do wear scarves, blazers, and accessories to personalize and polish my looks. Thanks for all the great content! You look amazing, by the way!

I'm really glad you covered this topic. I am a separates kind of attire person and in the summer it is hard to wear separates and stay cool so this was a great video for me! Lots of great ideas! Thanks!

I’m a stay at home mom and I still dress up! Why not? I’m loving white this summer -Dawn dish liquid is my best friend! I always said that if something were to happen to me I want to look good on the mortician’s table 😂

[@BusbeeStyle]

Why not!? Love that, Ann! Dress for YOU! Thanks so much for watching! xo

My name is Nancy and I kind of do it all at my husband’s 55 person and growing aerospace engineering company. I work with mostly men so I tend to wear very tailored pieces and not dresses. These blazers are very pretty 🤩 I personally like white because I feel now that I’m older it’s more flattering on me than the darker colors. Although I too am nervous about getting stains 😆

[@BusbeeStyle]

Wow, Nancy! Thanks for sharing and thanks so much for watching! xo

[@iss8504]

East coast lawyer here. I do everything you mentioned. Blazers can make almost anything office appropriate. Slingbacks tho are the most open shoes possible. No sandals. West coast you can get away with almost anything depending on the client. My west coast clients go around in flip flops and I dress down to see them but still dress better. I might wear a dark tailored jeans dress amd white blazer to see a west coast client. Nothing too short. Material or tailoring can transform your clothing.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thanks so much for watching! Love how much a blazer can add to a look! xo

[@jackiebourret4461]

Thanks Erin. Love your videos. I’m an insurance exec outside of Chicago. My office go to look is either dark blue or white jeans, heels and a blazer.

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thanks so much for watching and sharing a little bit about you, Jackie!! xo

[@muriellawrence9454]

Great video!

[@carpediem9382]

Great video! I work in legal industry so blazer is a must, especially for court. I couldn't wear the maxi dress even under a blazer, but those stretchy whites pants, brown belt or no belt and white blazer are perfect. I also liked the 'go bold with color & pair with white' idea, really great. And those shoes you showed at the top end of the video! Love!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed this one! xo

Hi. I can't find the relevant video but had to thank you for the huge boost you've given me. I've been rolling up my sleeves the way you suggested, doing the jewelry and really dressing to emphasize the good parts of my body. I went from feeling frumpy to feeling great about myself. My body didn't change overnight, but it looked like it did. I have an audition in a few days and know I'll nail it. Thank you so much!

[@BusbeeStyle]

I am SO glad that you've found my videos helpful! Thank you SO much for your sweet comment. Such a difference it can make to wear things that you feel great in. So glad you are here! xo

[@krcal3020]

I’m a physician - I wear a white coat in the office every day. Suits would not work most days - but I do like to add a cute blazer if I am going to a meeting. I have some nice light neutral linen blazers that work great with summer outfits. I loved the flowery maxi dress - but it would be too long and impractical in my office. Longer skirts get caught in the rolling chairs. I prefer knee length fit and flare dresses - cute, cool, and flattering. Keep up the great videos!

I’m a real estate agent in Philly! I was taught to dress one level up from my clientele so they are comfortable and I still look professional. So if my clients are super casual, I don’t want to dress super corporate, but just a nicer casual.

[@BusbeeStyle]

What you wear does make such a difference...Thanks so much for watching and sharing a bit about you, Stacy! xo

[@Venus77x]

I work for myself, I'm a writer and illustrator but even so I always dress in a groomed way, smart casual or even when casual never sloppy. It's just part of my personality to put effort into my appearance and yet it is no effort it is just part of my daily ritual. It helps you to focus and feel at peace in yourself. Once I'm done clothes, hair, makeup (no longer than 45 mins) in total I never have to keep checking or feeling undone, I get on with my day relaxed and professional. Xx

[@BusbeeStyle]

Love to hear that...Thanks so much for sharing and thanks for watching! How you prepare yourself each and every day makes SUCH a difference in productivity and your overall mood. xo

[@1974lilli]

I am an engineer and work in absolutely male dominated environment. 99% of the time I am the only woman in the room. We have basically no dress code. Kinda like tech industry and google. But clothing is still important. May be even more important than when you have a dress code. I need to think before all meetings about how I want to be perceived, which emotions I want to cause? I need to think about what is my strat for the meeting and dress so that it supports my goals. I love and use a lot the look: "summer dress with a blazer". I have blazers in various colors, but never printed. And they go pretty well with very floral summery printed light dresses.

[@angelsshare.]

I can so relate to your comment. After 30 years in Silicon Valley high tech, I'm STILL the only woman in the room. You have a great outlook on how curated fashion choices can distinguish you amongst all the male colleagues. It's so easy to fall into the Tech Bro no-dress-code-because-I'm too-smart-to-care attitude that pervades high tech, and I do see a fair number of younger women in the field adopting the gray hoodie and jeans look. In some cases, they look like male robots. IMO, you're definitely on the right track to success!

[@BusbeeStyle]

Makes such a difference! Thanks so much for sharing...And thanks for watching! xo

[@pamb2868]

I love suits. I want to buy one, but I can’t decide on a color I want. I used to wear them all the time back in the 90’s. And I loved them then. I’m so glad they’re back. I wear white shirts. Not too much in shorts or pants. I love color. I even thought about buying a bright pink suit. I just haven’t decided yet. I love the white suit. But I live in Georgia, in the country, and have three small dogs. They jump all over me when I get home. I guess I should probably get an orange or rusty looking color to match the mud I’ll be wearing.

[@BusbeeStyle]

I totally get it, Pam! Pick a color that you feel excited to wear! Can't wait to hear what you decide...please share! xo
