Comfortable career shoes for women? Know of any? Also "business Casual" tips?

Hi, I just accepted a job where the attire is business casual. I need some VERY comfortable, yet dressy shoes. I don't want heels, maybe a slight platform, but no pointy heels, I'll still need to move around, lift stuff, etc. The brand, or store where they sell the brand would be great.


Also, any tips on "Business Casual" dress code would be helpful, I've never had a good job before lol.

Comfortable career shoes for women? Know of any? Also "business Casual" tips?
Easy Spirit or Aerosoles brand shoes are comfy...some styles are a bit grandma, but if you browse all their stuff you'll find some nice casual and even trendy ones. For Biz Casual, avoid showing toe, as in sandals, but for most places clogs are okay. Definitely No Flip Flops!...I worked with someone who showed up in a nice casual outfit to work and got in trouble for the flips! Biz casual usually means, suits, blazers and such aren't necessary....I'd definitely avoid jeans unless others at the job wear them...it's usually smart to stick to slacks, skirts, blouses (no cleavage!) and button down shirts....avoid skirts above the knee if you're in an office setting. JJill.com Jcrew.com and Eddiebauer.com can give you some good ideas ....even if you don't end up shopping them because of price, you can easily copy their styles at other department stores. To get the best picture of how to dress though, stop by the new work place and check out what everyone else is wearing. Best of luck at your new job!
Reply:MACYS has great shoes..from sexy to office...i do all my work shoe shopping there. great sales too!
Reply:Try Clarks-Bostonian, or Easy Spirit. Both brands have a pretty good selection of comfortable, business casual appropriate shoes.
Reply:My favorite store for work clothes is New York %26amp; Company... If you sign up for email offers on their website you automatically get a 20% off total purchase coupon. In fact if I know I need a lot of stuff I'll make a new hotmail email address and sign it up, just to get the coupon!





I would try Sears for shoes... Aerosoles might be good. Sears usually carries a cheaper line than the other major department stores. JC Pennys might be a good spot too.





Congrats on job!
