Many people make the mistake of not dressing appropriately to work. The way you dress affects how others view you. What you wear to work also depends on the industry as there are industry standards. Basically dress for your job. If you are a fashion, creative designer, hair or make-up artists, you can afford to be more outrageous in your dressing. However if you are working in an office and is unsure what to wear, avoid clothes that are overly trendy; choose styles that are classic and understated elegance.

The following are some tips on what NOT to wear to work :

Overly Revealing Attire :

In most professions, you should stay away from overly revealing attires like dresses, blouses or tops that show too much cleavage at the front or backless clothes that leave your back revealing. Bare midriff and tube tops are also not advisable. Women who dress in unprofessional attire will most likely be passed off as someone who seeks attention through their clothes than their skills or ability.

Outrageous Hair Colour :

Unless you are working in a salon, extreme hair colour like blue, magenta or multi colours are distracting to colleagues and business clients in the office. Natural looking colours black, dark brown are fine.

Long, fake or bright-coloured nails :

Avoid nails that are too long with multi-flowered patterns and bright colours.  Just keep to neatly manicured hands will be ideal eg short nails and neutral polish.

Fishnet stockings :

They might be a trend now but they are too sexy for office environment.

Over accessorizing :

Using fashion jewelry is ideal to enhance your outfit example earrings, necklaces, rings, bracelets, belts etc. However, when worn in bulk it will look tacky. Too much real diamond and gold used can be seen as “show off” as well. Avoid too noisy jewelry example crash in colours and extremely large or ornate pieces. A rule of thumb, let just one piece of jewelry be the focal point. If your emphasis is on your earrings which are long and colourful, then play down the necklace and bracelet if you need to wear them. If you are wearing a chunky beaded necklace, skipping earrings and bracelet will be a good choice.

Tattoos :

Although tattoos may seem common these days, but many business people are still put off by them especially tattoos on obvious places like on the neck or on the arms (if you are wearing a sleeveless blouse). These tattoos look cool during off working hours but they are best keep under wraps during working hours.

Appearance can create credibility. Quoted by Mark Twain “Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence in society.”

It is the reason they agonise over what to wear for a special occasion, or when
they are getting ready to meet someone new or important. However, most of the
time women find themselves wearing the same dress, top, skirt and jeans that
they like. How can they make the wardrobe more versatile? The solution to this
problem is accessories. Accessories will change the look of the same outfit
dramatically.

When selecting accessories, there are
some tips on how to select fashion accessories to camouflage figure faults to
achieve pleasing line and proportion :

1) Round Face

Necklace : Use a necklace that is longer
with V-shaped or longer design.

Earrings : In order to look taller and
longer, choose earrings that are oval, rectangle shape. Dangling earrings are
suitable as well.

2) Long Narrow Face

Necklace : Use a necklace that is round
in shape and shorter in length. String of pearls would also be suitable.
Alternatively soften the “V” neckline with scarf.

3) Long Neck

Necklace : Advisable to use chokers or
jewel-length necklaces to shorten neck. Higher necklines should be used.

Earrings : Slightly bigger rounded
earrings will flatter such face shape.

4) Short Neck

Necklace : Several longer necklaces to
create a layered effect to add length. Avoid chokers and turtle-neck tops.

5) Broad Shoulders

Necklace : Use longer necklaces to
create vertical lines. Scarf is also suitable.

Earrings : Use slightly longer designs.

6) Heavy Bust

Necklace : Avoid long necklaces which
dangle over the cleavage.

Belt : Avoid wide belts as they shorten
the waist and make the bust appear larger.

Brooch : Use brooches to the side to
direct attention away from bust.

7) Short-Waisted

Necklace : Use shorter jewellery to
create more distance from jewellery to waist.

Belts : Avoid wide belts. Wear tops
outside, belted. Wear belt lower than normal waistline if possible.

shorten distance from jewellery to waist.
