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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

“Maybe” being the operative word and only in Creative environments.

Dearest BusiChic, I have a confession to make: I’m burnt out.         It’s my own fault really – with working a full-time job, running a daily blog and spending quality time with loved ones – all things that I love but are taking its toll. Which is where you come in. I [...]
