Workwear Wednesday: What is Business Casual Anyway?

On Friday my husband & I are going to his (new) company party.  The invitation said "business casual" but it's in a slightly swanky location with a jazz band & casino entertainment.  He hasn't been with the company very long but it's the kind of office where most people wear jeans & t-shirts to work.  So we're kinda like, "Um, what exactly should we wear???"  With such super casual coworkers we'd hate to be over dressed!  But with all the higher-ups in attendance we also want to make a strong impression.  Should he wear a suit but no tie?  Should I wear a dress?  And did I mention it's freakin' freezing outside? Oh the choices!  So I leave it with the world of Pinterest to decide.  What do you think?

  1. It's casual BUT without seeming that you jumped from the sofá to the desk or table meeting ahahahah.

    Your choices are lovely. Girl under Ryan's photo is a bit overdone but after Ryan everyone seems something more or less, right? The guy has casual written all over ahahahahah.

    Cosy and comfortable (not drabby) and throw a nice jacket on top of it and you'll rule. Jacket is mandatory, at least for him. Go for casual look and add the classy touch on accessories - a difference without disturbing anyone.

    Have fun,
