Strange dress code

Ok so my dress code is business casual but with a tie for 4 days of the week. I am not really used to wearing a tie without a suit but I guess I will have to buy ties.

Can someone estimate the number of ties and shirts that I should have?

Enough to not repeat anything for 2 weeks.

Btw, if you think about it, the dress code is really just "business formal, leave your blazer at your desk."

in it 2 win it
 

Yep, Business casual doesn't include ties.

Buy one white tie and tons of white shirts.

Can't be serious

Heh, true I was kidding.

Hit up the department store and by the pre-boxed shirt and tie combinations and then knock em' dead slick.

I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

Assuming you're an SA, get 4 or 5 dress shirts and 4 or 5 ties. Friday, wear a sport shirt. Boom.

If you're wearing a tie with no jacket (or will have your jacket off most of the time) invest in a tie clip to keep your shit in check dude
