There was a recent survey about what kind of “looks” are acceptable at work. It also talks about the least popular looks at work among employers – highlighting some fashion faux pas that some people might even think are ok (and some you wouldn’t believe that some people are even chosen.) Among men the most complained about look isn’t even clothing related, but these new “hipster” beards.
Among women, though? The list is endless. Short skirts, heels that are too high, tops that are cut too low and, my personal favourite, the boob tube. These are all things that people have worn to work and had to be called up on. There is also a list of looks that are endorsed but, unfortunately, are all a little bit too boring. Normal suits for men in a small spectrum of colours, and for ladies? Well the looks are pretty limited as well – skirts or trousers, plain coloured blouses and jackets. It’s practical, but boring.
