Father and Son

April 16, 2012 Corporate

A strong start to the week with this father and son duo who I snapped one fine Melbourne evening. Father is in Smart Casual while son is in Corporate. I was cycling past when I had to pull over to see whether these gents would allow me to photograph them. I like their glasses and [...]

The blazer

April 13, 2012 Autumn

It’s (finally) Friday! A day that is typically an opportunity to dress down in the office. Regular BusiChics will know that I like to advocate experimenting with Polished style rather than going super casual, per se. Take for example today’s BusiChic featuree, Troy: What do you think of Troy’s ensemble? Do you smarten up on [...]

April 12, 2012 Autumn

So did you have a good long weekend, BusiChic? I still can’t believe that it has already been and gone. However by my workload, well I’m certainly feeling the loss of that one work day! As such, I’m going to be in some comfortable workwear myself today, much like today’s BusiChic! I am inspired by [...]

Summer and Fringe Food at My Mexican Cousin

February 9, 2012 Afterwork

My boss assures me that the weather will start heating up towards the end of next week or at least the week after and I can vouch that he is a reliable alternate source for when I don’t have time to BOM or ask Siri. So today’s business chic look is a very summery one [...]

February 2, 2012 Black Dress Project

Were any of your own teachers as chic as the BusiChic I’ve captured here today? In an Alpha60 dress and sandals by Gorman, I like the overall discreet and effortless elegance [...]

Clash of the vibrant prints

January 27, 2012 Autumn

It’s Friday and what better day then to share these images of a Creative sporting strong prints, a classic blazer and a pocket square? Smart Casual folks may wish to not roll up their jeans if in a more conservative workplace than Filip’s. Otherwise, I hope Filip’s style will inspire other blokes to [...]

Lady in a green skirt

January 18, 2012 Contemporary business wear

Today’s BusiChic had me stumped for categorisation. Is it Creative or relaxed Contemporary Business Wear or the dressier side of Smart Casual? I think it’s a triangle of workplace dress codes that warps into appropriateness across all categories due to the omnipresent heat! What I know is the lady was leaving her office in this [...]

The case for boutique shopping

December 30, 2011 Creative

In the final installment of the BusiChic Retail Girl series, we take a look at a charming print that had me rushing to the shops and on to a lesson about good service. Hayley is not a shop girl per se, however I’ve photographed her in a Fleur Wood frock that belongs to a Fleur [...]

Join the dots

December 21, 2011 Creative

As we wrap things up at work this week, some of us will have the opportunity to opt for more Smart Casual work attire. Here’s some inspiration for ladies as the mercury rises… The glow of Roxy’s necklace in this Creative ensemble positively mesmerised me – wow! I also much like that Roxy’s rockin’ polka [...]
