    Shell suit, baseball cap, old trainers and my car keys on a chain around my waist with a polished Vauxhall Chavalier emblem

    Normally I wear a nice pin-striped suit and sometimes a variety of flashy shirts and ties, or just plain colour shirts with a quality tie depending on my mood. Admit I have enough shirts to last me 3-4 weeks without cleaning any

            Seeing suspenders outlined through the pencil skirt is slightly tarty, not a look I always want to portray.

            Lacy hold-ups perform the job admirably, I find...
            I am not sure if the job the Lacy hold-ups perform admirably is to achieve a slightly tarty look..... or the opposite....

            and I like the fact that you (at least sometimes) do want to portray a slightly tarty look....

            However my current working attire is:
            As I enter the door - (Darkish but light weight) Suit, White shirt plus Tie
            as I sit down - the jacket comes off (and stays off til I leave unless I have a high-level meeting or I am giving a presentation)

            Last role:
            Shirt and Trousers....

            Previous role:
            Anything goes - I wore shirt and trousers, sometimes polo shirt but as it was a fashion retailer the "code" really was wear what you like...
            Blokes wandering round in shorts, Tee and flipflops...
            Girls in skimpy and short.......
            Tulip role but it had compensations!

                Lewins had some great strongly striped fitted shirts in a couple of months ago but the gents choice seemed to be sadly lacking when I went in. Only a small shop in Manc though.
                Most of my suits are designer (and tailored) or Austin Reed (again Tailored)

                Sorry gave my old white dress away on freecycle. (bit of a waste of a one off, but hey that's divorce for ya).

                I think Mr Norr might have summat to say about that.
