What is the Dress Code for This Year?

In summary, there is no dress code for this year's conference, but if you are new, you would have no way of knowing this. Some who are new have said they've never seen a dress code for this year, so I went in search, and also cannot find anywhere it's written - including the Business Guide and Consultant Policy manuals. Some are finding out at this late date that they may need to wear dressier clothes than they are used to. I know in the past the policy has always been business casual. Please clarify this and it would be helpful if something could go out to all consultants letting them know. Thanks!

I will be wearing capri pants and nice tops. I will also be wearing heels...I wear heels all the time...but I will be bringing my nice pair of sadals...which some might consider to be flip flops. When I think of flip flops I think of old navy...that is where I buy all my flip flops...but there are similar shoes that are dressier.

I am wearing nicer flip flops most of the time. They are super comfy and outside of tennis shoes they are the only shoes I can wear for an extended period of time. I don't see anything wrong with it. Most nice shoes aren't comfortable anyway

If that is how you are most comfortable than go for it.

But I beg to differ on the nice shoes. I saved up and went to a "real" shoe store and found nice shoes that actually feel good! They are even heels and I NEVER wear heels.

Yes, make sure your feet are comfy. I will say, though, that the pumps and heels I'll be wearing are very comfortable, even when I wear them all day. I have jeans and funky sneakers to change into for after hours, but that's just because I'm faster in my sneaks.

Oh, I am sure there are shoes out there that are more comfortable! I'm just too cheap to spend the money on them!. I can handle wearing them to church, but not 8 hours with lots of walking lol

I am taking nicer shoes to wear, but throwing my leather flip flops in my bag, because I would rather have comfort over blisters and be limping around!!. And when you say flip flops are you meaning cute nicer flip flops or Old Navy flip flops. There is a definate difference!!

I agree - my dressiest sandals I guess could be termed "flip-flops" depending on peoples definition. Who knows...I may be wearing flip flops part of the time without even realizing it! :D

Me too. I have a pair of Rockport's that are "flip-flops" but definitely were not $5 at the corner store.

Last year was my first year at NC and I really stressed about the dress code. I was so stressed that I almost didn't go. This year I have a different attitude. I wear jeans all the time. I don't own dress clothes. I work in a school kitchen, so I don't have "business clothes." I go to a church that's very casual (even the pastor doesn't dress up). I did buy one pair of black dress pants, which I will be bringing with me again this year, along with a pair of black twill pants. That's going to have to do.

As far as shoes, I am wearing my black Birkinstock clogs. I have arthritis in both feet, and if the Birk's start to hurt, I am switching to my black flip flops. Sorry, but that's the way it is.

I especially took note of the "dress du jour" last year. There was everything from super dressy to super casual. And the bottom line? It really doesn't matter. For what it's worth, I saw many women with their "business shoes" taking their shoes off before a workshop and applying Band-aids. So how professional looking is that?

The most important thing to remember is that we are at NC to LEARN.

I've got a cute pair of black crocks and also a pair of dressy "flip flops". It'll have to do Since I am leaving in 6 hrs..... need to go to bed.

Oh, and I hit up the clearance rack at Macy's the other day and got some awesome deals and lots of cute stuff. Got a few shirts at $4 each!!!!!
