Unfortunately or fortunately, not all of us have the opportunity to work remotely. Many work in the offices of their companies and structures, and this provides not only a good company of colleagues, but also the selection of everyday office looks. Of course, without prior preparation, this can become a tedious task. Therefore, if you are thinking about what to wear to the office in the summer, and how to choose business-style clothes, today’s article will be extremely useful for you!
Whether your company has a strict dress code, or your management is open to smart casual (or even T-shirts with jeans), we’re looking at a variety of options to solve the issue of how to dress for the office forever.
CAPSULE APPROACH
Putting together an office-style capsule wardrobe means simplifying your life for months ahead and saving time on morning preparations. Let me remind you that you will need a basic business wardrobe and a few color accents to compile a capsule. For example, as a basis, you can take a classic sheath dress in white, beige, blush or dark color, suiting trousers with crease and a high rise, a light jacket, a pencil skirt, an A-line dress in midi length, a midi flared skirt in dark color and several blouses in pastel colors. And then it’s worth adding accents: depending on the prevailing shades of basic clothing, add contrasting items that will make the office look brighter. For this you can use a jacket, a belt, shoes, the color of a tie on a blouse or a print on a dress.
MODELS IN BUSINESS STYLE
The patterns I mentioned for creating the capsule are not the only “allowed” styles for a business wardrobe. You can also include summer suits with culottes and a linen shirt, dresses made of eco leather and faux suede, wrap dresses with a waistband, classic-style jumpsuits with sleeves and straight trousers, and even gray jeans and oversize jackets. The main thing is to know exactly what the office dress code allows you to wear.
IS IT POSSIBLE TO WEAR ACCESSORIES WITH OFFICE CLOTHES?
It is possible and even necessary! Of course, it all depends on the severity of the dress code adopted at your job, but picking up something universal is quite simple. If we are talking about jewelry, it is better to buy minimalist jewelry in the form of small pendants on a thin chain, ladies’ watches, narrow bracelets with a beautiful interlacing of metal links. If you like massive jewelry, choose one chain or pendant made of light metal.
As for belts, corset belts, which are so popular this year, will not fit into the office. It is better to choose a thin leather strap under a sheath dress or a loose hoodie dress, and also pick up a handbag to match.
