Sans cigarette, that would fit the bill. It's far dressier than I do business casual, I wouldn't think to rock a turtleneck at work, but I like the look. For me that seems to lean more towards a creative profession. My biz casual is a collared shirt (no tie), blazer, and slacks that are not necessarily wool.

That cut Shearling lined coat is pretty darned special. Someday it is destined to be an heirloom.

I never wore a tie in the classroom but when the temperature warranted it, I frequently did a turtleneck and corduroy jacket. I called it my 'rumpled poet look'. And the district did consider me very creative. (And just a bit weird)

I'd say that works. And I agree-- I like the coat.

At General Electric Medical Systems Business Casual used to mean no denim or canvas shoes with a sport coat or blazer, tie not required.

Chinos, (Khakis) bucks or loafers with polo shirts and sports jackets were quite popular.

My first day on the job Jan. 1, 1988 my boss, a chemist, told me that G.E. was a very conservative company. I should wear suits in three shades or grey or navy blue with any color shirt that I wish, as long as it's white!

But now that I am 60 and over the hill there's no telling what one can get away with.

Personally, I think your GE colleague had it right. Although I do like a tan suit in the summer.

Personally, I'm not a fan of "business casual" but I also recognize that I don't make the rules.
