Most women wear the following to their office: a pencil skirt, a button down dress shirt and pumps to go well with the outfit. Did you know that you can add just a few clothing items to make this look appropriate for a night out with your girlfriends? Here is how you change your office look to a night out look.
How you choose to dress each morning reflects how you feel about your job – that you take your position seriously, that you are ready to work and that you pay attention to detail and know what you expect to encounter that day. You wouldn’t go to a construction site in your favorite four-inch stilettos, right? Of course not, you’d go in a hard hat, because it’s appropriate for the situation.
Your goal to getting dressed for work is to project a professional, competent image, regardless of your employment level or career path.The styles, colors, lengths and fit of your fashion choices will speak volumes about your ability to do your job. If you are concerned about your career, you'll be more concerned with looking professional than looking cute or trendy.
Clohtes' Color
Color plays a big part in professional image. Traditional career colors include red (aggressive), navy (trustworthy), gray (conservative) and black (chic). Most of these colors work well in pantsuits, skirts and shoes and mix back with softer feminine colors that are appropriate like ice blue, lilac, soft pink and ivory. Loud colors like hot pink and wild prints are much riskier in the office, but some creative types can still pull them off.
Wear light materials
Linens, cottons, silks and seersucker are great fabrics to sport during the summer. You can find these easy materials in clothes suitable for the office, either in blouses, oxford shirts, slacks, skirts or simple dresses, in A-line shapes or even shirtdresses. Make sure your professional summer fashion comes across as office-appropriate by keeping your garments pressed; although linen is expected to wrinkle, you should still have it dry cleaned or ironed before wearing.
Keep your outfits simple
Fit is everything when you are talking about tailored work clothes. Pants should be fitted, but free of visible panty lines. Skirts, especially straight styles like pencil skirts, should be loose enough to sit down in comfortably. Jackets should be able to be buttoned. And blouses shouldn't gap between buttonholes.
Compromise office shoes
Avoid a pointy,super-narrow toe-box. The less space for toes, the greater chances of developing bunions and neuromas—and the more pressure is placed on toes when you’re upright.Opened-back, slide-on footwear requires toe gripping that can lead to hammer toes and foot tension. Find a style with straps that keep the shoe attached to your body so your toes do not have to work.Adding a lot of comfort features to their shoes and have a nice collection of career styles.
