Features of office style

- Even if your company has a strictly regulated dress code color and skirt length, you can always use different models of clothes and accessories.
- Black, gray, beige, brown, dark blue and white are considered safe colors for office style. However, if your company does not have a strictly accepted dress code color, you can feel free to experiment with different tones of other colors. The main thing is to follow the rule of color combination and not use more than three colors in one image.
- In a business style, deep necklines, open shoulders, overly short skirts and tight-fitting trousers are prohibited.
- Business style does not recognize sandals and any other open shoes. And in some companies, wearing tights is a prerequisite for the dress code, even in the hot season.
- It does not comply with the rules of business etiquette to go to work in the same clothes for more than two days in a row.At the same time, because of this rule, it is not necessary to constantly buy new things. It is enough to have things that can be worn in different sets.
