Businesslook – how you style it and to which point you should pay attention

Hi Uniques,

soon it is time – the serious side of life starts again. On September 1st, my apprenticeship and academic studies start, that means I’m studying business administration and do an additional apprenticeship as an insurance salesman. While I can wear what I want on the campus, this looks somewhat different at the office. However I am looking forward to show another side of me sometimes, because a businesslook is not equal with boring. Finally, there are also a number of colors, cuts and patterns. But before you now try to combine a wild look there are some rules you should follow. Of course the severity varies, but the following rules are always appropriate in my opinion 😉

1. Handbag vs. briefcase

In my opinion, the handbag must not be replaced by a briefcase. However, the bag should match your look, as usual ; )

2. Deep Insights

The color of your underwear playing a role insofar as it should not be seen. A purple bra under the white blouse? On a fashion event you have done the lingerie trend probably well but at the work this is not appropriate. Instead, the following applies: no too deep neck and no too short skirt. You finally want to seem serious ; )

3. High heels

Shoes, yes they are always a problem. Often one thinks: “Oh , if they do not fit no one will notice it anyway ” but that’s not true. Shoes can round up your look perfectly. But what shoes can I wear at work? Well, Flip Flops are of course not a good idea, even if they are so comfortable. The high Glitter Heels should also better stay at home. The best shoes are ones with not too high heels. Now and then, a flashy color can spice up a very simple one or two -color look even a bit. If you are not sure how high the shoes should be and which colors are allowed and which are not, you can simply take a look at your colleagues ; )

4. Attention to details

Small details can often decide on a great or maybe not so great look. That’s why your jewelry should suit the colors of your look and you should not drape yourself like a Christmas tree. 4-5 pieces of jewelery are perfectly adequate. Personally, I always wear a watch, earrings, a necklace and a ring from time to time.

More details includes a tight without laddering. To me it is always very embarrassing if I get a ladder during the day, so I always take a second tight with me;)

As I noted in this post (link) also a perfect businesslook includes manicured nails too.

5. natural instead of artificial

Too much makeup often appears like a mask, so I generally wear not too much makeup. It is also true at work less is more. So you can sleep longer in the morning and appear much more natural)

Classic Looks are always perfect for work. You can see three classics here:

Who wants it more unusual may have to resort to more unusual cuts. In my opinion, you should have at least one of these three basic looks. At Sieh an!  you can get this three looks and a lot more for quite a good price.

Are you still in school, doing an apprenticeship, studying or are you working already? What do you wear there?
