Specifically black pumps to go with a business suit.

Megane asked:

I work in a company in Tokyo, and that usually entails having to wear a business suit to office everyday.

Now, I came from a tropical country, so I’m not entirely sure what to do with the upcoming cold. Should I wear a coat over my business suit? Trench coat? Gloves? Scarf? Boots? Knee-length socks? Can I stack a multitude of garments under and over my business suit?

Although I’m not sure how cold it’s going to be. But last year, it snowed here. But not every year. Meaning it’s hovering around freezing point, give or take a couple of degrees.

That’s still very very cold for a tropical archipelago country person that I am. Autumn has just started to crawl over the country and I’m already shivering. What more when winter starts to take over right?

Oh, and I’m guessing they’ll heat the office. Right now it’s mild and very un-Autumn-ish at my workplace. Sometimes it gets hot even. While people are puffing mist outside.

That’s the gist of it. I can take cold temps, as I sleep with the air conditioner blowing on my head back at my home country. But I’m worried once I get outside.

I will be working in Japan for 3 months, where the dress code is conservative business professional. How many different suits will I need? (also, recommendations on what color/style of suits to buy would be good).
