Day-to-day Wardrobe for Analysts
Hey all, wondering if any analysts on here can comment on what is in their closet.
More specifically 1. How many suits, shirts, shoes and ties 2. What color/pattern of ties
I have seen a couple of older posts, but i wanted to get an updated census with more input to offset outliers.
Thanks!
Two suits — navy and charcoal. ~15 shirts — mix of light blue, white, and a few patterned shirts Three pairs of shoes — black cap toe, brown cap toe, brown penny loafers ~10 ties — different shades of blue, purple, pink, red, etc
Just buy a fuck ton of white shirts and grey pants and you’ll be good.
Similar to above poster. ~15 shirts (all white), ~6 dress pants (navy/grey), 3 suits (navy,charcoal). Only have a handful of ties as office is biz casual.
comfy PJs and crisp oxfords.
Why tf do you need 15 shirts? Do your moms come every three weeks to do your laundry?
lol exactly. do people not do laundry every week?
White shirts are commodities for analysts. They will get stained easily or you'll sweat through them on the subway, and you'll want to keep them clean/fresh. If not, you'll still want enough to rotate through for airing after each wear, when laundering isn't necessary. Since they're usually sold on discount if you buy multiple at a time, a dozen within the $25-$50 range a pop sounds like a reasonable one-time purchase (no need to overspend on shirts at this level).
2 suits to alternate (3 if you want) 10 shirts (white and light blue) 2 pairs of shoes to alternate (3 if you want) 2 ties (leave one at the office and leave one at home)
2 suits – both navy. 5 shirts – mix of light blue and white. don't understand why people need 10-15 if you can just do laundry every week. works out for me since i have in unit washer/dryer and i wear non-iron shirts from CT 2 pairs of shoes – black cap toe and black penny loafers 4 ties – got them back in college - last one i bought was like 2.5 years ago. 2 ties are enough tbh
I would recommend at least 10 shirts (2+ weeks worth) if not 15+. I've had plenty of weekends blown up where I didn't have a chance to either drop off or pick up my cleaning so I always have backups. IMO it's better to pay for convenience than to use your (very limited) free time to do laundry.
when you go to office on the weekends, what is the dress code like?
At my EB see a wide variety. Some people in T-shirt + shorts, others biz casual.
