When it comes to office fashion, it can be tough to decide what’s appropriate. Individuals who work in creative fields may have more leeway, while lawyers and businesspeople may need to stick to conservative attire. It’s impossible to overstate the importance of the proper clothes on making a good impression and advancing your career.

In an interview with Forbes, fashion editor and corporate style consultant Jacqui Stafford said, “At all times, whether you’re the secretary or CEO, people will judge you in nanoseconds by what you’re wearing. I’ve seen smart, talented people passed over for promotions simply because they didn’t dress correctly.” Know the accepted guidelines for your office to turn heads for the fabulous work you do, not the questionable outfit you wore.

February 5, 2013 By Teresa Te

Any outfit won’t be complete without some accessories. Don’t go overboard, though, as to wear several of them because less is always better. You can choose between accentuating your outfit with a belt, a scarf, a necklace, a huge ring or a pair of sunglasses and perhaps some bangles or bracelets.

Bangles and bracelets are always in fashion. Whether it’s the chunky bangles you like or several pieces of bracelets, they improve one’s look and appeal.

The great thing about these bracelets is you can mix and match them regardless of the size, color and texture. If you’re not familiar with the ways on how to do that, we share some simple steps you can follow.

Bangles and bracelets are made from different materials. The wooden type is the most versatile as it can match everything even the chunky bracelets.

If you want to use the metallic colored ones, you can choose to wear a single piece particularly one that looks elegant. Feel free as well to use them together with the wooden ones.

There are also the metal bangles which you can use in a bunch particularly the small ones. The sound they make when you move your arm should be music to your ears.

For the jeweled bracelets and bangles, the best way to use them is by wearing only one piece and on one arm. This is most ideal for the more formal occasions although it can also be worn casually.

Flower prints go well with a white outfit and flats while animals prints can be paired with green and wooden bangles to achieve a jungle and sexy accent to your outfit.

Overall, the key is to mix and match. Plain colored ones can go with patterned and printed bangles while bangles with prints and patterns are best paired with plain colored outfits.
