    Hi,

    I am starting a a new job in a big cooperation at the end of the month, I asked the interviewer what is the dress code he said just casual. I will be working in office not to sure what he means by casual.

    Can some please send me some links where I can buy casual clothes also, not my area of expertise.

    Play it safe with a shirt and trousers for the first day, definitely no jeans etc until you see what others are wearing. Suss it out for the first few days before you start shopping.
    Congrats on the new job!

    Do you not have a pair of trousers and a shirt?

    What did you wear to the interview?

    As other people have advised just stay safe with a shirt and trousers the first few days until you see what other people in the office are wearing.

    You can get trousers everywhere for example Brown Thomas, Debenhams, Local menswear shop, M&S, Riverisland, H&M etc.

    Excuse me?
