There are many reasons why career women should look professional in their clothes. One of them is because of whom they are – women and one of their assets as professionals is their image.
The image of a woman should exude confidence in and portray her professionalism. That is why women should choose their wardrobe with care because not all dresses are good for business purposes.
Types of business clothing
There are two general categories of business clothing. These are casual business and conservative business. You must choose your clothes to suit the kind of environment at your work. This can be hard but you can get this done by finding out the dress code of your office. You can ask about this during your interview. This will make you look like someone who takes details into consideration.
How to choose your clothes
Dress code
The best thing to do is to obey your office’s dress code. There are certain things to avoid like extremely high heel shoes, short skirts, dresses with low necklines, and very tight dresses. Generally, dresses considered to be provocative should be avoided because they could be interpreted as trying to impress unethically.
You can get ideas for your choice of clothes in two ways. First, study carefully the dressing policies of your office for the basic facts. You can then add your personalize feel to it to make you feel comfortable and unique. The other way is to observe your colleagues who command respect in the office by management so that you can adopt their way of dressing, but with your own personality reflecting in it.
The fabric
The choice of fabric is another important thing. Your clothes should be easy to manage and must easily be interchangeable with other quality items. This will make your clothes last longer while still keeping their great shape. they should be easy washable as these are the daily wearable clothes.
Prepare for emergencies
Keep a spare blouse at your office for emergencies like spilt tea or any other thing of that nature.
There are some offices with very strict dress codes and mostly these are conservative in nature. This means a preference for suits and skirts.
