My casual look is almost perfect for my merch assignments. There were a few days when I wore what I could, which was less than what was wanted. Fortunately, I can wear decent shoes again, and there are only 3-4 planned merch days for the rest of the year. I may or may not wear the nice jackets to those jobs. It might be more practical to wear the heavier sweaters. Weather and early job start/end times will determine how many days I will need.
John, my merch jobs request closed shoes; no rips, tears, or stains; and otherwise business casual. Usually, I wear black pants, top, and black shoes. Occasionally, I have worn jeans and walking shoes due to foot issues and time limitations (no time for laundry). shoppers who wear khakis and polo shirts for that one company could wear that to these merch jobs. These are not glamorous, and sometimes sweaters have been snagged. You might want want to look like your version of Irene.
I am not interested in putting on the ritz for brands and places. When I occasionally want their products, I I will order something online or (if lucky) find it at consignment prices. The stores I frequent are casual friendly. Can you say, Dillard's and Macy's? For dietary reasons, I am avoiding restaurants indefinitely. I have no reason to dress for other people, places, or most jobs. I dress for me now. It is very liberating.
My work plan for next year is to do any recurring or interesting sounding merches that will have me/my back will consent to do and wait for bonuses generally. This will involve little work. It is likely that in some months I will not work at all. My casual look will be perfect for me.
