How to dress up @ work
Choosing clothing at work sometimes becomes difficult as many people are unaware of the fact that office is a work place where style and fashion doesn’t matter. People tend to wear stylish outfits, sneakers and heels at work to manifest there style regardless that they are professional people. It is not that we should alter our own personal style when going at work but dressing in a proper sense which gives you polished professional look is a new trend.
A polished look refers to sensible blend of style, colour, length and fitting which may project your competent and professional image. If you are concerned about your future then perhaps you would also be concerned about professional attire than appearing cute or sweet in funky wear.
For women it is necessary to leave trendy look behind and bear professional look which will help them in there career path. Gaudy dresses, chic designs, designer jewelry and sandals are big no in office. These jangles earrings and bangles are almost misappropriate and generally distracts everyone at work.
Here are some guidelines so as to get onto the track when getting ready for office:
- For more polished attire colours like black, red, navy blue and gray are consider traditional career hues which go along imparting you a professional touch.
- These colours work well in pant suits, skirts and shoes if mix and matched with more soft feminine colours like lilac, soft blue, ice blue and ivory. While bright and loud colour should be avoided as they can be riskier in office.
- Try to project an organized image through possessing structured style. Jangle jewelry, stacks and chandelier earrings can put off your image so opt for stud earrings and single bangle.
- Other things that would project your simple and professional presence in office are neat hair, scuff-free shoes and manicured nails.
- Fit outfits is what important in dress code at work. When wearing pants it should be fit and free from any wrinkles and panty lines showing at the back. Straight pencil fitting skirts should be loose enough to stand and sit comfortably.
- Always button your blazers and jackets as it makes you look unprofessional and wearisome. Blouses shouldn’t have gap between the button holes.
- Do not put on excessive make up, though little is necessary. Designer brand outfits are great but excessive designer look and accessories appears frivolous especially at work. So simplicity and soberness is the key mantra in office.
- There are some fashion killer things which seem to shun such as miniskirts, sexy dresses, falling neck outfits, halter necks, see-through lace, spaghetti straps and strap stiletto sandals. This would kill your professional image.
- Even too casual things like sneakers, jeans, t-shirts, shorts, crushed and baggy clothing would not be appropriate for office environment.
Corporate wear is something of its kind which includes denim pants, dressy pants and blouse, sleek jersey knit and skirts are best examples preferred by many women. The formal attire preferred by men of corporate is pant suits, collared shirts and blazers.
