So, the story around town is that some jobs participate in Casual Fridays. There can be such an advantage when you don't have to wear tie or a girdle to work. Amen. However see that this is the first post of this series, I'm going to lay down a few ground rules.
1. Under no circumstances should you wear a line jacket with all of your pledge process memories to work, especially when you're pushing 45. Why not? Because 1. You most likely pledged in college. 2. You are since removed from said college. 3. That probably means that your line jacket is probably older than some of your coworkers. I need you to chill.
2. Now I love me a head tie BUT wearing it AT work? We have got to draw the line. And not only we will NOT wear it to work, MEN…you can't wear it either! I don't care how recent you jus got your locks retwisted. No. Hell no. No to the hell.
3. If you cannot stand/walk in your heels, work is not the place to test that out. Save your practice for your bedroom where no one will judge you for your leaning heels and your plastic pairs.
Last but certainly not least, no matter the dress code for your job, DRESS TO FLATTER YOURSELF. If you wear a uniform and it looks crazy, get it tailored. If you wear your own clothes, find something that works for your shape, your size, your complexion and your budget. Dress for the position you want, not the position you have. If you don't take yourself seriously, no one will.
Shoutout to Ms. Fairydust for this idea. See you next Friday!
