Honesty who gives a fuck if it’s ugly. At the end of the day you wear your apron over everything so it doesn’t even matter

i ordered a bunch of plain t-shirts (brown, black, cream) from h&m and they work wonderfully. cheap too. sometimes i wear nice clothes to work but they always have that starbucks smell after work :/

don’t wear long-sleeve white shirts. don’t wear expensive things to work. don’t wear heavy sweaters. you’ll sweat so much.

I always got things from thrift shops, except shoes, get a comfy pair of non-slip shoes you won’t regret it

If u need something cheap but decently durable to get you started, Walmart construction boots worked for me. Just PLEASE don’t try wearing nicer clothes. So many new baristas have ruined nice, new clothing and it makes me so so sad

Girl, it’s a job. Just wear the ugly clothes!

get leather shoes. you can clean them easier, and if you spill something on them you can’t feel it. really any non-canvas shoe should be good. (i personally just mop mine once they get too dirty lol) i also went to the men’s section in walmart and bought one of the multi-packs of tshirts when i first started, just so i wasn’t wearing the same shirt every day.

goodwill/secondhand shops are your friend. also sketchers work shoes are the absolute best, next to crocs. just remember you'll probably spill stuff on yourself so you don't wanna wear something you like 😂

tbh you’re gonna stop caring about your clothes real quick when you realize no matter what shoes or shirts you wear, it’s gonna get stained and gross every time 😂 just get anything simple like a black or solid tee shirt and black pants that are cheap and you won’t care much about

Hit up Old Navy! I grabbed a couple plain black shirts from them on clearance specifically for work and it’s great. If I get milk on them, I get milk on them. Whatever. That’s why I bought em!

neutral colored sweaters from the thrift store and jeans are my go to. Cute but affordable.

Mark's Work Warehouse

Thrift if you can but a store like H&M is a great option so is Walmart

H&M men's section is my favorite place to buy plain clothes, pretty wide range of sizes and cuts. Pretty good quality too. Old navy, thrift shops are also really good

One thing I might add? When you can afford it, get a *good* pair of shoes. Take the insoles out and replace them with runners insoles. I always bought my clothes at thrift stores, but my feet thanked me for those nurses clogs.

All my work clothes are from target. The Universal Thread line makes great jeans and the a new day line has the best tshirts!

Target, I bought 2 pairs of pants for $20 each and 5 shirts that were $5-$10 each. They’re very durable and are comfy.
