[FOR GIRLS] What should I wear??

I’m a woman HF associate and I’ll say this: it’s been three years I still think the Patagonia vests are so fucking ugly and I’ll never get to a day where I feel good wearing it to work every day. Curious what other ladies in investing do.

I wear blouses, nice sweaters with subtle prints or designs, dresses below knee length and sometimes casual blazers in different styles (denim, cool colors, etc). I also love cardigans. Im not sure about your HF, but a lot of them are business casual, so I’ll wear jeans on Fridays or something as well . I’m definitely on the more stylish side so I take the normal business casual guidelines and wear different cuts, textures and colors. I also have a vast array of earrings for any outfit :)
