What to wear at work? Here are some tips for Office fashion!

As the office is a place of work, it is imperative that you not only behave professionally but also look the part. However, finding an outfit that oozes confidence and professionalism while maintaining some level of comfort can prove to be quite the task at 7am on a Monday morning.

Let's look at a few of the ways you can fuse office fashion with comfort, and hopefully save you a headache or two.

Let's start from the feet up, shall we? When it comes to office fashion, it seems that women are still expected to wear heels. Now yes, while an archaic beauty standard, there are other options that can help you achieve the desired look without breaking your back. Why not trade in your stilettos for a pair of black boots or platformed heels? In the summer time, you can even swap the heels for a pair of neat, ballet pumps. Choose sophistication without the unnecessary pain.

Okay ladies, let's talk suits! Professionalism in the workplace does not always require you to wear and ultra-tight pencil skirt, blouse and blazer. No, not at all. In fact, many women actually feel rather uncomfortable when wearing a skirt, so why not jazz up your office style and try out a chic pant-suit? This is the 21st century girls, embrace your right to wear traditionally "male" clothing and do so with a fierce and sexy attitude. On another note, when deciding what to wear to the office, consider the particular season that you are also dressing for. The summer allows you to tone your style down; ditch the stiff and heavy materials for outfits that are light and breathable. You'll find that you can also get away with introducing a little more colour in to your outfits during the summer, which is always a bonus!

Let's accessorise. For office wear, the key is to keep it simple. Accessories have the power to enhance an outfit but similarly have the power to tear it apart. Keep your colours subtle and neutral; you can never go wrong with silver, so don't overthink it.

So there you have it, a few simple tips that can totally transform the way you view office fashion. Dare to succeed, dare to be bold, dare to be your most fashionable self, dare to dress according to your own comfort and beauty standards.
