How to Navigate Dress Codes at the Office: A Personal Stylist’s Guide
Even before COVID, dress codes and wardrobe guidelines were loosening up or being eliminated, especially in more creative industries. While this may feel liberating, I have heard from many clients that this causes more confusion and anxiety when it comes to dressing for the office. On the other side, I have consulted with businesses expressing exasperation at the way some of their employees are dressing but they don’t know how to communicate their expectations in an empowering way.
Here are some tips if you are confounded by your no dress code office style.

“But I Have Nothing To Wear!” Why Hero Wardrobe Pieces Are Better Than Microtrends
While microtrends can be fun and provide a temporary burst of inspiration, they are often not the most sustainable or thoughtful choice when it comes to shopping. Building a wardrobe grounded in personal style, quality, and versatility is more likely to create a lasting and satisfying collection of garments. Instead of chasing every new trend, consider investing in timeless pieces that reflect your authentic self, serve multiple functions, and have longevity. This approach will not only enhance your personal style but also contribute to a more sustainable fashion industry. We recommend looking for hero pieces, and starting your style from the inside out!

BU Style x Nomasei
Nomasei: Sophisticated and Playful Shoes for the Modern Woman
Created by Paule Tenaillon and Marine Braquet, the Paris-based ethical and sustainable shoe brand is also a celeb favorite. It’s been seen on the streets, worn by Nicole Kidman, Blake Lively, Sandra Bullock, the Hadids, Kristen Stewart, and Katie Holmes. The brand’s designers spent over 20 years designing shoes for brands like Dior, Givenchy, Chanel and Chloé, but decided to branch out on their own for a direct-to-consumer shoe they could pour their whole selves into. All with a slower-fashion model.
And that’s how Nomasei was born!
Nomasei is their foray into sustainable luxury fashion, made with thoughtful and sustainable materials, and assembled in an eco-factory placed in Tuscany. Paule and Marine believe in creating better working conditions for factory workers, and emphasize a clean production line. Their factory even uses less electricity and energy, with solar electricity providing 40% of their own energy consumption.
