Tips for Looking Your Best at Work

1. Understand the Workplace Dress Code

Before you revamp your wardrobe and make sure you understand the dress code that you need to follow in your workplace.

You should know by now whether this dress code is formal, business casual, or casual. Each environment will require you to have a different approach to style and you should respect that. 

Business Formal

For business formal wear, you can wear tailored suits, pencil skirts, blazers and classic-looking dresses. Below are some examples of business formal wear.

Business Casual

For business casual you should have dress pants, blouses, chinos and smart casual dresses as well. Below are some examples of business casual wear.

Casual

If the style is straight-up casual that means you have a lot of flexibility in terms of what you wear. 

Go for comfort as well as style because with a casual dress code you can wear jeans, stylish tops, coveralls for women, and whatever else suits your sense of style. Below are some examples of casual wear.

2. Get Timeless Staples

You want to invest and make sure that you have timeless staples into your wardrobe. This makes it easier to create outfits since you can pair your staples with everything.

Blazers

This means that you need to get classic blazers which can elevate your outfit. You can throw these over a pair of jeans or a simple dress to make it look very professional. Below are some great options for blazers.

White T-shirt

The classic white T-shirt is also something that you should consider as well. You can pair this with pants, skirts and blazers as well. Below are some good basic white t-shirts.

Once you have the basics down then you can start buying more statement pieces. This allows you to build off your basics and never have that feeling of having nothing to wear.

3. Look at the Fit

The fit of the clothes is very important. Ill-fitting clothing can make you look very unprofessional. Clothes that are too loose make you look frumpy and clothes that are too tight can make you look like a bit too revealing.

Comfort and mobility are important because it allows you to move quickly especially if your job requires you to have a lot of activity every day.

Finding the right outfit for everyday work is critical. You want to feel confident and look great at the same time. 

Believe it or not, this can help to improve your job performance. The better you feel about yourself the more likely you are to be productive and motivated. This can make it easier for you to get through the days, especially those tough ones. Take pride in your appearance and make sure you’re selecting clothes that will make you look and feel fabulous. 

Over time you will develop a trained eye and will be able to pick out the pieces that best suit you very quickly.
