Hello everybody. What is appropriate?

NathalieBrown · 08-16-2012, 10:14 PM

Guys, I need your suggestions.

I don't have any idea what to wear in my first job as an accountant.
They say it's better if I wear ladies suits and ladies formal jacket?
What do you think? What can you recommend?

Thank you!

I always use the bluntest rule of thumb when dressing for any sort of professional setting - don't wear anything you wouldn't think of wearing to church. Business suits, skirts (nothing above knee length), any sort of blouse or simple, professional looking shirt. Stick to neutral colors.

My go-to for internships in the past has been wide leg tailored pants (I have a favorite pair that's a steel grey), a blue and white pinstriped crew neck tee, and a burgundy blazer with 3/4 sleeves. It sounds odd, but it looks gorgeous put together, I've gotten so many compliments. I always wear ballet flats or Oxfords, because they're way comfortable, and you're going to be wearing them for awhile.

I hope that helps!

As I am reading your reply. Theres an idea that comes in my mind because...

Once, I have seen this site.. Womens Suits and Stylish Womens Clothing from LucyAlice .. It gives me knowledge on how to match my trousers and suits. What do you think of this attire??? Is this appropriate for me? A young lady... Because the models are almost 40's I think...Hmmmm???

I need your confirmation because I know you know the right one...

Again, Thank you very much!!!

That would totally work!

You can always add some small personal touches too, if you feel it's too formal. Add a bright bracelet, some red nail polish, something fun. I'm a fan of bright necklaces.

I got most of my stuff from WhiteHouseBlackMarket.com, Lulus.com, and Target.
