5 Things You Should Never Wear To Work

With more people than ever before working from home and global entrepreneurial icons like Mark Zuckerberg flaunting tees and jeans as their choice of work-wear, it is safe to say that the corporate world is leaning towards a much more relaxed and casual approach when it comes to dress code.

However, no matter how casual or relaxed a workplace (unless you work as a lifeguard at a beach), here are 5 things you should never wear to work.

1. Anything too tight/revealing

Let's start the list with a no brainer. As much as you maybe for feminism, women's rights and equality, you are making your coworkers extremely uncomfortable when you flash your cleavage.

And while we are on that, a skirt that barely covers your bum isn't a good idea either.

2. Too much perfume

You know how they say too much of a good thing is bad? That applies to perfume too. Yes, it is important to smell nice when you are working around people all day (erm...it's important otherwise too), but there is such a thing as overdoing it.

Stick to classic scents and a few spritzes to avoid offending your coworkers. You also don't want to come off as the person who had to resort to an overkill of perfume cause they didn't shower all week. EEKS.

3. Flip flops/sandals

Unless you work at a beach, keep your toes hidden.

Casual dress attire can still be appealing and professional if done correctly, but flip-flops may not set the 'take me seriously' tone that most employees should strive for.

4. Sweats/tracksuits

Trust us, we know how comfortable sweats and hoodies are. We would live in tracksuits if we could, but they just don't set the right professional tone.

As popular as athleisure has become in the recent times, your tracks are best saved for the gym/airport.

5. Distracting jewellery

Yes, we get it. You are a princess. But you do not need to flaunt that with a head crown or other distracting jewellery.

Save the dangling earrings for a night out and the head crown for Coachella.
