Evening all,

Long time lurker, finally coming out of the shadows...

So. New job. Former job highly corporate.

New job... Very exclusive school. But not part of the teaching team.

Was told to attend in smart/casual, so today wore loafers, chinos, top and cardi With hermès scarf. This, I'm told, is fine for holidays but not sufficient for term.

So... All ye in a similar workplace - heels aren't really an option- arthritis and lots of on-site walking. But what would you wear?

Am 5'9, senior management, and a size 14 hourglass.

Many thanks !! WineWineThanksThanks

Check out just last season for work ish dresses. I tend to go for dresses with sleeves to avoid buying jackets as I struggle to get those to fit. Just a few in the summer.

I do love a pointy flat too.

I usually wear long sleeves, but keep a cardi in school just in case I'm having a cold day
