Fashion Staples that Show You Mean Business

Fashion Staples that Show You Mean Business

Fashion is kind of my thing. What you wear tells the world how you want to be perceived. So, why not fill your closet with pieces that say, “I am a smart, serious young woman.”  Your confident message will attract the right kind of attention from day to night, commanding respect from colleagues, dates and family members.

 

The Pantsuit

It’s all about the cut for this fashion staple.  Look for a nipped waist and flattering, straight-cut trousers that make this menswear-inspired piece look feminine.  Wear it with delicate jewelry, like diamond stud earrings and the lightest of gold chain necklaces.  Armani, Stella McCartney and Anne Klein have all created pantsuits for your consideration.

 

The Dress

Dresses are the clothing of choice for women who deliver the news.  Have you noticed that most (female) news anchors, correspondents, and interviewers are always sporting some perfect, stylish frock?  Throw one on and you’re dressed for the day, without having to coordinate different pieces.  Dresses don’t even have to match your shoes these days, just wear what you love and head out the door.  Try a dress by Jason Wu, Tahari or Diane von Furstenberg.

Button Down Shirt

The Crisp Button-Down Shirt

Buy these in multiple colors, and you can get away with wearing them every day of the week.  Chic and versatile, the button-down goes with everything.  Wear it with your richly patterned skirts or neon cardigans, slip it over a dress, or top your shorts or pencil skirt.  You’ll look polished and smart, especially in the shirts from Jones New York that don’t require ironing.

 

When you look good, you stand a little straighter and taller, and you walk with confidence.  Your positive attitude is the best accessory to business attire.
