Most office attire is the same; employees typically turn to simple outfits such as a dress shirt and dress pants or a skirt. This summer, why not give yourself a challenge and introduce new ideas to help you stand out in the workplace? Color affects our moods, how we think and how we carry ourselves. When you are comfortable and excited about your outfit, others will notice too. Check out how color and accessories can help you reach a new success.
A two-tone block dress can be spiced up with a simple flower top to bring some color into your life. Add a belt and some low-heel shoes to create a perfect outfit for a day in the office. The dress shows your sophisticated side, while the colorful top reflects your outgoing personality.
The suit look should be saved for the interview. A simple blue dress shirt, a vest and a tie paired with black dress pants will do the trick. This year, you can walk around in the office sporting a professional look that will not intimidate others.
Dark-colored khakis with a pastel top can be paired with flats and a skinny belt to show off your waist. This outfit is simple and professional, a perfect look for the office. You will be walking around the office with complete confidence in yourself and your work. Substituting the flats with a pair of gold heels boosts the outfit from comfortable to trendy.
Job interview vs. going to workThe interview look is different from an everyday office look: You want to dress to impress. A woman should stick to basic colors such as navy blue, gray or black for pants, and white for a shirt. Pants or skirts are acceptable, as long as the skirt is length- appropriate. Simple accessories and closed-toed shoes complete the look. Men should wear a solid or striped gray or navy blue suit, with a white dress shirt and a tie. |
