How to dress to go to the office?

Office essentials

Whatever your usual look, some essential clothes will allow you to always be well dressed in the office. Always keep a classic cut trouser suit, a pencil skirt and several plain tops in your wardrobes. Keep it basic:it is always possible to accessorize your outfits with costume jewelry or a printed scarf. As for the shoes, it's up to you:heels are of course more feminine, but flat ballet flats will prove to be much more practical if you have to work standing up!

The ideal look for a job interview

On the day of the interview, your appearance should be neat, but restrained. Since you're not sure yet if you'll have to wear business attire or if the company tolerates more extravagant looks, keep it simple. Classic black trousers combined with a fitted shirt or jacket, and you're ready! Choose shoes in which you are perfectly comfortable, for a natural gait. The objective is above all not to appear disguised. Ditto for make-up:subtlety is essential!

The right clothes for managers

If you're the leader of a team, you can't come to work looking sloppy:you need to be assertive at work! To do this, opt for straight or flared pants cut in a material that does not crease, such as woolen cloth. You will always be flawless! Combine it with a plain or printed top in a color that contrasts with that of the pants (but forget black and white, far too classic!). And, to break the total working-girl look, express your personality with a trendy or fancy necklace, bracelet or earrings:a chic detail that will make you more accessible to your employees!
