Dress For Success

“To build a positive first impression, it’s better to air on the conservative side. You don’t want to wear something that you’d leave with the interviewers … that all they remember is that tattoo or nose ring.”
– Kelly Van Aken, recruiting director for Aerotek
According to Wikipedia, “business casual is a kind of middle ground between formal business wear and street wear.” That’s the reason we picture business casual as a mixture of business pieces with trendy everyday items. Even though every workplace is different, a rule of thumb is to stay away from denim, neon colors and sheer or shiny materials. Stay away from spaghetti straps, plunging v- necks,  ruffles and above the knee fashions. It is recommended to wear closed-toe shoes. Makeup should be kept neutral. It’s best to steer clear of false eyelashes, chunky mascara and ultra shiny lip gloss. Keep hair clean and avoid excessive products.
It is easy to look professional and stylish even in a conservative work environment.
XOXO,
