Casual Office Clothes?

Well, I just started working at a small office and I need to dress appropriately, but casual at the same time. Such as black dress pants with a polo shirt and some shoes that won't be to dressy but nothing that looks like I just finished running a marathon. Any and all suggestions are welcome. Thank you.

Casual Office Clothes?
Business casual is basically slacks and a collared shirt but no tie required. usually your shirt does still have to be tucked in and you do still have to have a belt. As for the shoes just get some solid black like leather shoes n you'll be good (black goes with everything)
Reply:Most businesses are allowing jeans with a decent shirt, not a tshirt. Sketcher type shoes but not sneakers.
Reply:Casual pants have no cargo pockets, and should be wrinkle free cotton, cotton polyester blend, or all polyester. Dockers and Haggar are some good brands, however most major retailers have a store brand, just make sure they are wrinkle free on the label. Pants should not be shredded anywhere and certainly not at the cuff. Sock color should match pant color. A polo shirt or casual button down the front shirt in a solid or pattern, again wrinkle free. Belt and shoes should match. Make sure the pants are closer to the waist, about 1-2" below your belly button. Otherwise you are too casual for the office, but ok for a date. Employers do notice these things.
