I am going to start my job soon with an accounting firm %26amp; I am new to the work place in this country (USA). Pls give me some idea about the business attire thats appropriate. One major question that i have is if i am wearing a knee lenght skirt do i hv to wear a stocking with that or are stockings outdated ???
What kinda shoe should i wear ?? should is be closed toes ?? also i am not comfotable wearing heels. is flats ok ??
I have seen most women here wearing make up and I have never used make up in my life (other than lipstick and some eyeliner)
Pls keep in mind that i am not in the media/entertainment or fashion field so suggest clothes accordingly.
Work clothes crisis ???
In my opinion, skirts and dresses would be best working in an office or for a firm; try and stay away from pants (especially jeans!) as much as possible!
Do you like executive suits at all?
Also, wear nice feminine tops, nothing too tight or too floral and keep away from nasty and tacky polyester fabrics too!
Keep your makeup to a minimum: nice and light.
Light foundation, pale lipstick or lip gloss (no bright red tones!) of a pastel shade would be ideal combined with a discreet eyeliner and eyeshadow and mascara and you will look fantastic!
As far as footwear is concerned, if you're tall, flat shoes (no boots!) are okay but nothing too heavy looking!
If you're rather short, well at least get yourself a pair of heels that aren't too high, know what I mean?
Good luck with your new job!
Reply:trousers shirt . with or w/o blazer. or a knee length skirt. i don't think stockings are necessary. check with your firm for the dress code.
Reply:I think you should wear a suit ( womens) You can either get it in pants or a skirt( wear skin color tights). I recommend pants. And wear nice shoes with both( doesn't have to be high heels). And lipstick, eyeliner, and tan blush should be all you need for makeup!
Reply:Stockings are definitely NOT outdated! just keep the colors neutral with whatever skirt or dress you choose to wear. Flats are definitely fine, no need for high heels.
Make up is not a necessity, believe me! you are definitely on track, just don't be like some women who would wear jeans to an office which is definitely a NO NO! Me and my boyfriend went to the bank the other week and this woman behind the counter was wearing jeans, I can't believe her supervisor let her get away with that. Now that's inappropriate.
Reply:Congratulations on your new job!
Stockings are not out-dated.
They do complement the business attire, as long as they are not those fishnets or opaque fashionable tights. Try go for some nude/tan coloured stockings that have a shine/sheen to them... the more expensive ones.. They will make your outfit look very corporate presentable and also make your legs look fantastic.
Good luck =)
Reply:You have the right idea overall, the only i might avoid is the open toe.
All the ideas for the Skirts to the make up is fine.
Reply:Of course flats are ok! Closed toes look more formal, so it is far more recomended than sandals or something like it.
Pencil skirts and blouses are very appropriate to work and a fairly safe match.
It is ok not to use full-face make up - even because that ruins your skin! Just keep with your eyeliner and lipstick, and add a bit of blush so you won't look pale, this works perfectly for everyday use.
Other than that, I just wish you good luck in your new job =D
