6 Fashion Faux Pas that You Shouldn’t Make at Work

4. Avoid shiny accessories or jewelry

There is nothing wrong with wearing accessories or jewelry to work but you may be out of line if you wear flashy stuff that may be best suited for a party. Wear minimal jewelry that is subtle and looks sophisticated. Avoid the use of quirky accessories, over the top jewelry or other knick knacks that may be more appropriate for a casual look.

5. Wear skirts with an appropriate hemline

Don’t make the fashion faux pas of wearing a skirt that has a hemline high enough to be deemed inappropriate. Skirts are a great pick for formal wear but hemlines for business environments typically end just at or above the knees. Wearing skirts with very short hemlines could be considered provocative, which does not fit well in a workplace or office environment.

6. Wear clothing that is appropriate for your body

Wearing clothing of the wrong size can be damaging to your image at work. Wearing pants or skirts that are too loose can project a shabby image. On the other hand, wearing clothes that are too small or too tight can make you come across as ‘sexy’ which may be considered inappropriate for work. Try to strike the perfect balance by wearing clothes that fit you well and are stylish at the same time. The point is not to be completely conservative but not to go to the opposite extreme either.
