1. The Little Black Dress -- choose a black dress that can be either professional with a blazer or cardigan that will transform to after 5 by removing the blazer or cardigan. Make sure the dress is appropriate for the office environment. If necessary, add jewelry or accessories for the after 5 look.
2. The Classic Suit -- No matter how casual the office environment is the classic business suit is a must. Perfect for meetings, presentations, and events, you will look polished and professional and commanding. Alter your look with a variety of blouses and tops.
3. Versatile Tops -- Make sure your tops are versatile and professional. Change your basics by rotating a selection of tops to create the impression that you have more outfits than you do.
4. Versatile Bottoms -- If chosen correctly, your basic wardrobe can be mixed and matched to make it appear as if you have a much greater wardrobe than you do. If your budget is small choose the following skirts or slacks to give you that mix and match option.
a. Black -- a classic color that always presents as professional. Mix it with one of your professional looking tops and you have a timeless look for most office activity.
b. Navy -- Crisp and professional, navy provides a dynamite mix with white. Navy and white combination gives a professional, in-charge look every time. Other colors to pair navy with are cream, red, yellow and certain shades of green.
c. Grey --Grey can really pop when coupled with a classic, professional white top. Grey is versatile and pairs beautifully with many colors on the spectrum.
5. A Third Layer -- By creating a 3rd layer, a blazer or cardigan, you are creating a polished look. Choose your colors based on your mix and match collection. Introduce some color or stay with the basics, either way, a third layer will enhance your professional office look.
6. Shoes -- When your budget is limited there is one basic pair of shoes that you must have for professional wear; a pair of black pumps. Choose wisely when selecting these shoes. They should be professional looking, at a reasonable height, classic in design, and comfortable. If you select the right shoe your feet will take you through the day in comfort as well as in a stylish and professional look.
7. A Great Bag -- One good bag big enough to hold your laptop, lunch and personal items will give you a professional look. Using separate bags for all your items looks clunky and awkward. The bag shouldn't be too big, but big enough to hold everything.
