If I'm going to ride Godiva-style, it will be on the beach, not on fake grass.:p

If you were going to ride Lady Godiva style you would probably cut your hair beforehand.

Being a future teacher, one of my other professors told me some really good tips on how to dress that I have never forgotten.

* Skirt length no shorter than the knee, or right above it.
* Necline no lower than your collar bone.
* Try to steer clear of the juniors section. You don't want to show up one day wearing the same thing as one of your students.
* Minimal make-up. It's not cute when you and your student show up wearing the same bright pink glittery eye shadow.
* ALWAYS wear hoes, even with pants. (I wore dress socks.)

P.S. I LOVE Kohls' apt. 9 collection! I always fine the nicest clothes!

Apparently one of my coworkers also missed the memo that you can't wear anything except nude colored underwear under white pants. Little blue flowers, how adorable.

This seems very conservative -- there are very few necklines that aren't lower than your collar bone. What's left, turtlenecks? LOL. And no open toed shoes, ever?! Yikes.

IF YOU cannot dress as a Professional in your profession then why be there?

Dress like a hooker then peole will treat you like a hooker!:rolleyes:

If you do not have legs, feet, bust, toes, or waist, then maybe New Fashions are not for you?

Big Boobs, cool show them off and see where people think your brains are!:) :D

Dress in your style that fits best for you!;) It isnt TV!

This has always worked very well for me!

Many offices nowadays and/or certain industries are more casual Tom. I work in the entertainment industry and never ever ever have I had to own a suit, etc for work. Jeans are the norm, even for interviews. My male coworkers regularly wear t shirts, surf shorts and flip flops. Its the culture in this industry.

This thread has been an attack thread for pages now ... some of you ladies can be super harsh
AYE! We're here to give friendly beneficial pointers, not insult each other.



In other news:

- Some science teacher at my secondary school wore striped undies with light colored pants. A very outspoken girl pointed it out. The teacher was embarrassed- and another girl said "don't worry, we're among women here". It was an all-girl school. I was not in that class, btw, but the rumor quickly went around.

- The worst part about those shoes would be the color. Does not help that the other colors available are also fluorescent hues that should have stayed back in the 80s. I hate lime green so much- and another co-worker was dissing it today as well.

Another former equestrian here! I was terrible with diagonals!!! But I, too, love high boots-- they remind me of my riding days!

No stirrup pants. You know which ones I'm talking about!

I HATE those shirts that snap at the bottom like an infant "onesie" does.

Also, no SCRUNCHIES. Try the Goody's brand plain black hair ties. No big fluffy scrunchies!

Your makeup should complement your skin and clothes when possible, but don not try to match your eyeshadow with a top that is a weird color like LIME GREEN.

They're called bodysuits. They were fashionable back in the 90s. I never had any of those.

Ack. More 80s fashion disasters.

Back in 1991, when I was 13, I went to a modeling camp. They said that green and blue eyeshadow were not to be used anymore. I do not know if this still applies given all the 80s flashbacks. But I never really cared for green eyeshadow.

I agree, they make you itchier and more uncomfortable. Maybe all the hopping around from their awfulness is supposed to make you warm? :confused:

I remember buying elastic stirrups so that I could make any pair of pants "stirrup pants" - and tuck 'em into my elf boots!! :)
