In my opinion, say no to big clunky shoes at all. They tend to look juvenile and dated in the workplace. Invest in a few pairs of classic, good quality shoes with a moderate heel for work and you'll be set for awhile....just be sure to find a good shoe repair person to help you take care of your investment!

Same goes for good quality bras. Noone wants to see your nips... unless you're at Hooters wearing your suntan pantyhose. And, am I the only one who gets at women who wear bras that have noticible seems/sequins/beads/etc... ? Either wear a heavier shirt or buy a smoother bra. Maybe it's just me.

LOL...so true! Also, proper fitting good quality bras! No one needs to see you adjusting your ladies in public.

YES! I can't stand it when women buy bras that are like three sizes too small on them and you see the girls spilling out all over the place.

Belly shirts, low rise jeans, and bikinis were not made for every body.
Dress in what flatters your body.
When dressing for work, don't show off your belly, cleavage or thighs because then no one will take you seriously.
When there's a company picnic, carefully consider your attire - do you want the President to remember you wearing super-tight, too-short, inappropriate clothes??

A colleague at my new job wears demis and then spills out. She's a tiny woman, but the girls are too large for demis. After she wore a too-sheer top, I even considered telling her, but I think she would feel I'm outta line.

I know some of you will disagree with this, but if you have to dress in full on business attire, like a suit or business dress WEAR PANTYHOSE. Bare legs are fine with a sundress or more business casual type skirt or whatever, but I think if you're wearing a suit and everything... bare legs just don't go.

I completely agree.

Once you graduate from college, Charlotte Russe/Abercrombie/Aeropostale and American Eagle should slowly disappear from your wardrobe. Notable exceptions: you work in a night club or spend your days beach combing.

If you have a large chest, watch what you wear to work. The same shirt that appears demure on your B cup colleague will make you look like a porn star. I know it's not fair, but you don't have to hide yourself in turtlenecks-- just think twice when you're selecting your work clothing.

I can't remember the last time I stepped foot in those stores. I was probably still in college.

Here's one: denim shorts and heels are never attractive. In fact, I don't like demin shorts at all but that's more personal preference.
