The 12 Best Stores You Need To Shop In For All Things Business Casual

Dressing for success doesn't need to break your wallet, either.

"Business casual." Those are two of the most confusingly vague words ever. They seem to contradict each other, yet they form an extremely important term. In college, you will probably find yourself having to dress in business casual attire at some point.

Whether it is for a sorority meeting, internship, practicum, presentation, student teaching, or etc., you will have to do it sometime.

In a previous article, I recommended some business casual wardrobe staples. However, where can you find these pieces and other business casual attire? Here is a list of twelve stores to satisfy all of your business casual needs:

1. JCrew

Even if you do not consider yourself to be "preppy," JCrew has high-quality, professional clothing that will be perfect for your first day of your internship.

2. Loft

Loft is great for business casual attire. From dressy sweater to dress pants, Loft has you covered! They have an outlet as well!

3. Jcrew Factory

Jcrew Factory is like the outlet of Jcrew. They have similar quality as regular Jcrew, but at a lower price!

4. Ann Taylor

Another store with lots of variety for your business casual looks!

5. Old Navy

If you are tight on cash and need something in a pinch, you can get some great deals at Old Navy on business casual clothing!

6. New York and Company

Similar to Old Navy in terms of affordability, New York and Company can save you when you do not want to blow a ton of money at the mall on a business casual outfit.

7. Kohl's

If you want a lot of selection, a department store like Kohl's will give you lots of options without breaking the bank!

8. Marshall's

It can be hit or miss but you can get some great deals here!

9. TJ Maxx

Similar to Marshall's, it can be hit or miss but worth the trip!

10. Target

Everyone loves Target. Since you probably already go there all the time, check out their clothing section! You can find some great, comfortable pieces for your business casual looks! Be sure to check Cartwheel for coupons too because they do have them for clothing sometimes as well!

11. Francesca's

Francesca's is a great store you may already shop at! Check out their dresses and sale items because you can find some great business casual dresses for those warm days!

12. Kiel James Patrick

KJP has some unique preppy looks you will love (even if you are not that preppy). My personal favorite Oxford shirts come from here because they are the highest quality and have the best fit. Everything is made in America too!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
