I knew it. I said a few weeks ago that the summer tempts us to be a bit more daring with our wardrobe choices Was that the understatement of summer or what? Now I don't know how it's been going around the corridors of your office, but the report from my cubicle has not been good. I hate to have to break it down, but I must. There are just some things you should know and I might as well be the one to tell you.
1. Cover your tattoos. Remember that tattoo you got 2 years ago across your back? Well it shows when you wear a scoop neck top. And guess what? It sends the wrong message. "Pookie's Girl" written in script on your back or peeking out from any other visible place does not make for a polished image. Now, if you have a hit song, a hot video and a stylist Ala Rihanna--it's cute. In Corporate America it is not.
2. If you decide to wear slingbacks, mules, or peek-toe shoes, please, please, please get a pedicure. It is a real treat and you can usually get one for under $40 at a nail salon.
3. Ladies, when you wear a sandal, even those with a heel, your foot should remain within the confines of the shoe. In other words, it is not okay to go outside of the lines. No peeking through the straps of your sandal or over the edge action. Keep it inside, ladies.
4. Dry your hair before you get to the office. A crowded elevator and dripping hair will get someone's day off to a bad start.
Stay Pressed, Stay Ready.
