Casual Fridys do not exist at my current place of employ, all for the better. The concept of ‘casual’ in the workplace has infected the professional male’s sartorial compass to the point where they actual look forward to…’shudder’… dressing down.
To combat this, I’ve instituted ‘Formal Fridays,’ a day to look your best. Wear a tie, throw on that blazer, but most importantly put a smile on your face. Why? It’s fun to dress well!
Those who know me may recall my long running theme of blazer fridays. This gradually evolved into Tie-Day Fridays. Here we are at the next step in the evolution of the movement to discredit and dishearten the casual Friday crowd; formal Fridays.
Others are joining the movement.
So what if you dress code only requires a button down and trousers (the so-called business causal look)? Dress to impress and intimidate. No one is ever going to look down on you for wearing a tie or blazer.
I’m looking forward to next Formal Friday. I hope you are too.
Dress to the nines, I say!
