Dress code

They do say that first impressions last longer. So being at the workplace entales you to dress appropriately because the dress code for the workplace is strongly determined by the type of work that you are at. It can be the music industry, retail or a communication company.
 Now, the dress code is mostly a problem if there is no uniform. Women are often faced with not knowing what to wear. Wether to wear something tight or revealing, stilletos or flat shoes or the right make-up, as we do have day make-up and evening make-up. Men are often at ease with what to wear but may be sceptical about it. We often face challenges of what to wear for an interview or a meeting. How you dress, really tells a lot about you -but remember not to judge a book by its cover because at the end of the day it is not about having a fashion sense but having style. Is the dress code important? Remember to think carefully about your workplace and who you are going meet or interact with because at the end of the day- the way you dress is how you represent your company's image.You can view...http://humanresources.about.com/od/workrelationships/a/dress_code.htm and http://www.buzzle.com/articles/dress-codes-in-the-workplace.html for my insight on the dress code.

  2. Formal suits (blouse,shirt,skirt or trousers-not too tight) does it for for female Public Relations Practitioners, unless required to wear sports wear on that day for a certain occassion, suits are the best for a working environment.
