Testing outfits for work! I should have experienced this long ago, throughout my five year or so being employed. That way, by now, I would have been an old pro, have tons, or a variety of working clothes to choose from. Instead, here I am this morning, unsure of the outfit that I would like to be seen in, later today in school.
It's rather difficult for me to create a professional look for myself. For now, perhaps. All my working life, it has always been uniforms, or casual look, meaning that jeans are allowed. Whereby looking professional, while it is welcomed with open arms, it is also normal to wear casually to work. After all, working in a manufacturing environment, the most important thing is feeling comfortable when working. Clothes that wouldn't hamper your movements, should you need to evacuate in a jiffy. I shunned skirts as they were always deemed to be a hassle when you have to do un-predicable work of perhaps, moving pc, wiring, etc.
Formal meetings at managerial level or figures of authority may encourage the members to don more business like suits and attires, but since I was never up till that stage, formal meetings, where image and professionalism were of importance, has always found me in formal attires. In others words, pants and formal shirts. The furthest I would go is to apply some lipstick, which would constitute my whole make up pallete. I'm that simple, and pathetic.
Being five years in the business of working hasn't really helped me in this aspect. I need look for more sources and inspirations to create an at least semi-professional look, not semi casual look. Since the start of this week, when casual wear is longer an option, I've been slowly but surely exhausting my formal wear collection, which is by the way, really countable within a minute!
That said, I should be getting myself more, especially jackets and coats, tidy little ones would be fine. Also, I've made up my mind to wear formal today. I'll keep my coat and skirts for the next time. Perhaps next week, when the working days are just 2 out of the whole workweek! Yes, but the lipstick will be applied. Morning cheers everyone.
