KELLY’S WORLD – I SHOULD USE WHAT TO CURE WHAT?
Like many people, I have dry scalp and eczema (you wouldn’t know it by my roguishly good looks). Once I have my medication – a combination of creams and a soap (along with good old dandruff shampoo) – working, my skin is fine.
HAVING A basic understanding of work wardrobe essentials is important to looking stylish and feeling confident every day at the office. Creating a wardrobe can be expensive and, as women, we cannot get away with mixing and matching the same pieces on a regular basis as often as men. However, if you do your first real workplace shopping correctly, you can save a lot of money in the long run.
Flair came up with 12 wardrobes musthaves that are a mixture of classic and vibrant pieces that are important investments for your work wardrobe. Your wardrobe must have:
LIGHTWEIGHT BLAZER
A lightweight blazer is a quick and easy way to look pulled together fast.
MEETING/INTERVIEW-READY DRESS
A sheath dress is a must for the conservative office – it’s a great structured, tailored piece that you can dress up or down with a blazer.
COMFORTABLE, WORK-APPROPRIATE PANTS
One of the greatest workhorses for a busy working woman is a pair of machinewashable, work-appropriate pants. These can be worn as a part of a suit or paired with something else.
LOW-HEELED PUMPS
Low heels are needed for those long days that require staying on your feet to network or do a presentation.
TOTE BAG
A tote bag is a must! You need something that is big, yet light enough, and not to mention durable for carrying around your daily essentials.
BASIC VERSATILE SHIRT
Tops such as shells, sleeveless, and blouses are great alternatives to wearing shirts with sleeves. These are perfect for creating a layered look with clean lines.
SOLID/PATTERN SHIRT
These are great for cardigans and blazers. They are perfect for looking casual while being professional.
CASUAL DRESS
For days when you need to attend a corporate event, having a few of these in your closet will be your saving grace.
CARDIGAN
Cardigans are essential for keeping warm while giving a laid-back, casual look.
NEUTRAL FLATS
These are a must if you are on your feet a lot.
SHARP PENCIL SKIRT
A sharp pencil skirt will always give a professional look and is a great alternative to pants.
BUTTON-UP SHIRT
This is a great layering piece that is incredibly versatile. It can be paired with a blazer, cardigan, or more.
