Tacky, Sloppy & Scary: Things You Should Never Wear on Casual Friday
WORSTS
Tags: work, fashion, casual friday, clothes, bad fashion, the office, faux pas
Casual Friday is easily the best day of the week for most of corporate America. However, for some, it becomes the worst when confused coworkers show up in outfits that expose too much or are just plain tasteless. Here's a list of how to avoid white-collar fashion mishaps.
| 1. | Shorts/Miniskirt with High Heels (ladies): It doesn't matter if you're a sexy 20-something intern or mid-life senior manager, this is still highly inappropriate. This flashy combo may show off a bangin' bod, but chances are it still probably doesn't look "good". |
| 2. | Hawaiian Shirts (men): Oh dear. This is an unflattering look on anyone. The last thing an office worker needs to see is a fluorescent hibiscus patten strapped to the back of an unassuming co-worker. In addition to being highly distracting, it also confirms that you do, in fact, shop at K-Mart. |
| 3. | Shirts With Stupid Sayings On Them (ladies & men): No one cares if you're "99% Perfect" or "This is Your Girlfriend's Shirt". They're just going to think you're a tool. |
| 4. | Shorts with Socks Pulled Up (men): This combo looks ridiculous inside or outside of the office. You'll be a lot better off if you simply avoid it. So will your fellow workers. |
| 5. | Mid-Life Crisis Ensemble (ladies & men): Whether it's a 45 year old woman shopping at "Forever 21" or a man wearing oddly-out-of-character Harley Davidson gear, it's really best if you check your mortality issues at the door. |
| 6. | Much Cleavage (ladies): You can show your feminine side while still showing self-respect. We all know you have boobs even when you aren't sporting a nipple-grazing neckline. Women of all ages, tuck them in! They're... not productive. |
| 7. | Loud Logos (ladies & men): Nothing spells "asshole" quite like "Express" "DKNY" or "Coach". Chances are, the people around you know exactly how much you make... are status symbols really necessary? |
| 8. | Jesus Sandals and/or Scary Velcro Sandals (men): You know exactly which pair I'm talking about. Maybe it's the taupe, faux leather pair you got on sale at LL Bean. Maybe it's the black velcro monsters that look like they belong on your eight-year old son. They simply look... un-good. |
