*EVERY sorority item you own does not need to be displayed in your office/cubicle.

*Invest in some resonably mature looking office supplies. You look realy silly working in a top 100 law firm or something, writing on pink scented paper with "princess" at the top with fethered "princess" pink scented pens!

The first thing that came to mind-
"It's pink..." "and it's scented! I think it gives it a little something extra, don't you think?"- Legally Blonde

Glad I'm not the only one.

I thought the same thing.

Here's another tip, and it is something that came up recently in my office: Observe the dress code. Your strapless top or sundress may be fine for a date or picnic, or even at church, but it needs to be covered with a cardigan while you are at work. Unless you're a model on a photo shoot.

It just takes one person like this to make your boss cancel Casual Friday. (It hasn't happened yet here, but we fear it is only a matter of time!).

Don't take advantage of the dress code. Business casual still means businesslike.

Don't keep a framed photo of you wearing your skimpy bikini on your desk in plain sight. I don't care how amazing you think you look. There's a more work-appropriate photo of your vacation to Bermuda that of your belly button ring.

Well, nobody in my company has gotten into trouble for sleeveless shirts/dresses yet. But if someone did get yelled at for capris and moccassins, they may crack down on more. Hence I wear either a shawl or a crochet cardigan over sleeveless shirts unless it is 90+ degree weather.

Sleeveless and strapless are not the same thing.

Please tell me I either read this wrong, or I've got the completely wrong picture in my mind, because this is what I'm getting:

I own the cardigan version of this from Ann Taylor, which is what I'm hoping Scandia meant. Although with her, you never know.

It's very close to what KLPDaisy means. I don't own a poncho.
