Re: Query from Kalyani Ananthraman

What to wear to office 

A black trouser is must in your closet. The other things you must have are business suits, skirts, formal jackets, leggings, blazers, and shirts. Indian wears like salwar kameez, churidar kurta, and sari can make you feel comfortable at your work place.


Dazzling colours are big no no when you are getting dressed up for office. Avoid wearing peppy shades like pinks and yellows for office. Professional atmosphere prefers colours like black, white, grey, navy, pastel shades, and sometimes red. Mix and match the colour of your attire with the colour of your shoes or handbag and get the perfect look.

Too tight or too loose clothing can put forward bad impression. The clothes you are wearing for work should be well-fitting, clean and well-ironed.

With eye-pleasing attire, professional look also demands minimal accessories. A single bracelet or a ring can also enhance the look. You do not need dozens of bangles and heavy earrings to look gorgeous. 

Comfort is important when your mind is at work. If your attire is not comfortable, your entire day can get ruined. The gaps between the buttons of your shirt are indicating that you wearing one size smaller than your original size. Too tight or too loose clothing can put forward bad impression. The clothes you are wearing for work should be well-fitting, clean and well-ironed

Right clothing is necessary for success but other things such as clean nails, well set 
hair, and good smell are also significant.
