5 Do's and Don'ts at the Workplace for Men and Women

I constantly find myself walking into professional establishments where the employees are certainly less than professional. Here's a list I composed of what you might think you should wear- but actually wear instead.

Men

Don't wear shirts where chest hair pokes out. Not only is it unsanitary it can be repulsive to customers.
Do wear collared shirts or button downs, they are always classy and give off a professional edge.

Don't let your fingernails grow above the skin of your finger.
Do trim them and clean out underneath-because nothing makes a girl cringe like man nails.

Don't wear flip flops to work. It can actually be annoying to hear the loud flip and flop of the shoes for customers or patients. Also, the same with the fingers- long nails and hairy toes are repulsive.
Do try out boat shoes that are light and comfortable on your feet.

Don't wear sweat pants or sweat shirts to professional jobs.
Do wear them for labor jobs.

Don't wear white socks with black or brown shoes. It sticks out like a sore thumb.
Do wear black, brown or argyle.

Women

Don't wear skirts shorter than three quarters down your thigh. When you bend over, we see all.
Do wear pencil skirts to the knee, its classy and still shows very nice shape in your curves.

Don't wear open toed shoes and pantie hose.
Do wear close toed shoes to eliminate frequent pedicures.

Don't wear thin strapped tank tops.
Do wear thick straps and a cardigan.

Don't wear low pants without a short shirt. Low pants are very comfortable but its not so you can show your mid-drift-it is very unprofessional and unnecessary.
Do wear low pants with a long shirt.

Don't wear heels higher than 4 inches. It is so hard to believe you can wear those heels all day unless you're sitting, and if you are sitting all day-what's the point? Save them for the club.
Do wear heels to make you feel confident but make sure you can walk and express it comfortably.
