Deadlines. Spreadsheets. Meetings. Conference Calls. The working day is stressful enough without the worry of what to wear in the morning. Is there anything more frustrating than staring into your wardrobe desperately trying to form competent-looking attire from the jumble, as the clock ticks pitilessly closer to run-out-the-door time?
Don’t keep all your favourite pieces for weekend brunches and after-hours gallivanting. You spend most of your time at work (sigh) so you should look stylish and feel confident. For petite women, good fitting workwear is particularly important. Badly proportioned pieces can make you look childish and unprofessional. And you don’t want that. Think of your office pieces as armour. From the right court shoes, to that pulled-together blazer, the take-no-nonsense bag, and the brave-anything dress – this petite style means business.
