Business Casual Business casual can sometimes be confusing but keep it simple for yourself All shirts should always have a collar and sleeves Khakis that are freshly pressed with no holes or rips Leather black or brown shoes Stay away from jeans, sneakers, T-shirts, hats, open-toe shoes, shorts

General Simple is always better Ties- Should be coordinated with shirt and suit coat, kept simple with dull colors, and end at the top of your belt Jewelry- If you are going to wear a watch or a ring make sure that they match your belt buckle, it is also good if these match the pen you are using.
