I am transitioning from a healthcare job where my daily uniform is scrubs to a professional office setting. While I do have some outfits that qualify as business casual, I need to expand my wardrobe. I generally dislike shopping in general. Any specific websites or retailers you suggest? Already exploring Amazon and Zappos. Thanks in advance!

My girlfriend went from being an RN to working at a business casual tech company.

She buys stuff from Madewell, Everlane, J Crew, Old Navy, Ann Taylor, and then one-offs from other brands she doesn't frequent as much.

(Also, if you commute via public transit - she has sneakers for walking like Hokas and ON shoes, and then keeps a couple pairs of flats in the bottom drawer of her desk cabinet. This is something I've seen a lot of women do at the tech companies I have worked at.)

Thanks for the tip about keeping a pair of flats at the office. Comfortable feet = very important
