We have already talked about how to choose the right oneyour own individual style of clothes. This will allow you to create an unusual, memorable and harmonious image. But no matter how you dress up in everyday life, it is clear that at work you should look absolutely different. Today in many companies there is a strict dress code, to go beyond which is not allowed. However, every woman, as well as a man, wants to be attractive and fashionable even among colleagues.

So, a strict wardrobe of a woman first of all includes a suit - it can be a skirt and jacket or trousers and a jacket. Also an obligatory attribute are light blouses, blazers made in muted tones, conservative shirts, restrained dresses with long or three-quarter sleeves. Do not forget about sundresses, but they are not recommended for wearing on a naked body. These things can be combined with a turtleneck or cover your hands with a jacket. Jeans for going to the office do not fit, as it is more casual clothing - better replace them with strict narrow, wide or slightly flared trousers. The outfits of a business woman (and men) must be made of high-quality, nymbling and "breathing" fabric. After all, today most of the time people spend at work, constantly moving from one place to another, then sitting down, then getting up, picking up papers; so that even at the end of the day look neat, give preference to such materials:

They should not be catchy and screaming: enough small earrings, one large ring on the finger, a brooch in the lapel of the jacket. Remember that everything should be in moderation! 
Strict clothing: style and color combinations
Strict style allows to show, what place inthe company you occupy, what you have achieved, demonstrates the status and role in the work process. Therefore, in this case, your individuality is not the main thing, it recedes into the background, giving way exclusively to professional qualities. However, with all this, it is absolutely not necessary to look gray and unfashionable - good quality items, properly selected jewelry and accessories are able to give even a business image "zest" and make it interesting. So, the style, as well as the color, of the costume for going to the office should inform others about your activities, discipline, respectability, command and obedience, without irritating, not striking and not causing unnecessary emotions in business partners, wards and bosses . All this guarantees conservative models, muted and neutral shades. Below we will consider the most suitable versions of strict clothing for modern women:
- Today, a classic business suit is notonly flat trousers with arrows and a jacket. Many ladies prefer jackets in combination with slightly flared pants, you can also choose an option such as a skirt plus blouse. By the way, shorts - now not only street clothes: they smoothly migrated into the wardrobe of working girls. Often they are sewn from dense wool or other costume fabric with or without a picture. Suitable length - to the knee.
- It is not forbidden to wear a dress in the office. Very fashionable style is "case", however such model will approach not to every woman. Choose clothes based on your type of figure, because each has its own individual characteristics - some have broad shoulders and a small chest, others suffer from full thighs. With the help of a suitable outfit you can hide your flaws and emphasize the main advantages. Remember that the dress must necessarily be with a sleeve - with a long or three quarters. Otherwise, it is necessary to cover bare hands with a short jacket or jacket up to the middle of the thigh.
- An irreplaceable attribute of every business lady is a white blouse, a shirt in a "man's" style that fits perfectly with trousers, and a pencil skirt with an overstated waist that visually makes it thinner.
- Stitched blazer of dark or sand color.
- With regard to clothes such as trousers, the classic "male" models can be replaced by narrow pants without arrows, smooth, long or ankle-deep. Do not forget also about Capri.
- Naturally, the only items of a strict wardrobe are jackets and jackets of non-dense, dense material: tweed, cotton, wool.
- The office attire will look beautiful andelegant only if it is chosen based on the characteristics of your figure and color appearance. The main requirement for clothing is not its price, but quality and the ideal cut. Even an inexpensive model of an unknown brand, sewn with skillful hands, can look like a thousand dollars.
It is worth mentioning that the style of clothing thatwe consider today, is characterized not only by restrained styles, but also by neutral muffled tones. Your wardrobe should not irritate others and attract attention too, so give preference to such shades: black and white, gray and blue, light blue, chocolate and olive, herbal, sand. However, if the above colors do not suit you or cause discomfort, you can slightly violate the rules (because they exist for this!). For example, pick a bright monophonic shirt, blouse or a business suit of a juicy tone, but in no case screaming. Be careful not to go beyond the generally accepted strict style! By the way, in this case there should be a minimum of jewelry, so that you can not be blamed for excessive jerkiness.
