How to Dress Up Any Outfit? Wear a Collared Shirt!

One of the best ways to formalize any outfit for the office is to wear a collared shirt.  There are many styles and colors to choose from. Wear yours under a sweater or blazer, or just wear it with a pair of jeans for casual Friday.


Classy Tip: Pair your collared shirt with nice black slacks, shiny black dress shoes and a string of pearls for an extra polished look! For an extra confident look, untuck your collar!

Late Summer, Early Fall Office Dresses

You can never go wrong with wearing black and white in the office. These colors coupled together radiate confidence and conservatism. Keep your neckline high and your hemline low.


Classy Tip: Add a thin, silver or black belt to polish your look. For an office environment that may be especially cold, add a form-fitting black blazer over your dress.

How to Wear Skinny Pants in the Office

When wearing Skinny Pants in the office, wear pants that are NOT form-fitting. Seeing your polka-dot underwear and every crease of your derriere is not a fashion statement, instead stick with looser-fitting pants that won't cause a distraction.

Classy Tip: Couple your Skinny Pants with power heels and a matching blazer.
