Clothes help!

[PriceTags]

I am going to work in a primary school for my work experience, and I've been asked to dress 'smart casual'. Now I'm not too sure what it means, so if anyone would like to show me some examples of clothes I could buy, I would be very grateful.

+rep to all good suggestions.

[dirrty]

[Ramones]

jeans and polo shirt? or a shirt under a jumper etcetcetc. Not shirt and tie.

[,Lexiilu]

What I would wear is a vest (black or grey, pinstripes are nice :D) with a white button down shirt, jeans and some boots or ballet flats. In case you need an example, here's one :D

girls? lol k,

I would say jeans and smart shirt as everyone else says. I have a white shirt i wear which isnt a school type shirt, its got a type of raised squre pattern on it?? if that makes sense. I wear a white tee under it and when i went to an interview for morrisons, i saw they wrote down smart casual.

So yeh, that :)

I'm sure he would scare the kiddies dressed in those love. :rolleyes:

[Ras]

come in a suit and impress them :D

[,Lexiilu]

Holy crap. I'M SORRY, I MAKE THE GENDER MISTAKE A LOT D:

[5,5]

just wear a tux

[Danzilla]

Well, i do my work experience in a hospital and i strictly not aloud to wear jeans or trainers. So i wear trousers, leather shoes and a white shirt.
In a school i would just wear jeans and a plain polo shirt with nice shoes. But maybe on your first day wear a white shirt just incase.

[PriceTags]

I am thinking of wearing some nice black trousers, because jeans are a bit iffy for me, but I'm not sure about what to wear on the top. A shirt would be good, I don't look all that good in shirts. Someone said about a jumper over a shirt, which might be a nice idea.

[MrGazet]

well smart casual is sort of like dressing casual but looking smart.not too casual nor too formal.so wearing a tie is over dressing.so try getting shirts with short sleeves.if not,roll up the long sleeved shirts so you will not look so formal.so,i have some suggestions ere:

shirts:

you should also wear trousers and if u want to look more appealing wear a white one.blacks good too.try to avoid jeans.as for shoes,go for casual ones.if u cud,try to get the same colour that matches the shirt.good luck :D

[MissAlice]

Some good tips from MrGazet!

Pair of plain trousers, shirt if possible, or a jumper, and a clean pair of shoes on your feet. No suits you aren't there as the headmaster ;) You don't need a tie and you certainly shouldn't wear jeans, and remember first impressions count, so look your best :)

Good luck with your work experience, I loved my two weeks at a primary school.

[,Lexiilu]

I like MrGazet's clothing ideas! The first shirt with a pair of plain black pants (or trousers as you British call them) would look excellent :D

[Ramones]

Just don't overdress yourself as you'll feel like a *****. The kinda shirts that guy above suggested would be fine, nothing to over-smart, and i think a pair of dark jeans would be fine as an alternative to bloody trousers.

[Crimson]

a shirt, jeans n shoes is always a win. Or something like that....

[partie2]

shart and jeans SIMPLE!

[Metric1]

SUIT & TIE

I wear stuff like:

& a pair of smart pants or jeans.

[Virgin Mary]

Look in Burton, their entire range is basically "smart casual".

[Kevin]

I've compiled an outfit for you

[Alkaz]

I would wear, shoes, smart trousers and a casual shirt or jumper of some sorts.

[leah]

wear a suit and take some pics jack xx

[Throne Sofa]

Smart casual is not jeans. It's like a shirt and formal trousers and formal shoes.
