I know I will probably step on some toes with this article, but its not my job to be a cheerleader. My job is to provide the information that will allow you to maximize your personal and professional life. So, at times I have to call some people to the carpet. Today, its the ladies.
Its time to stop dressing like youre going to the club when you go to work. What looks cute at The Epicentre may not be appropriate for Bank of America. I know we all want to feel comfortable when we are at work. However, there is a thick line between comfort and conspicuous.
When you are at work, you should look professional. Dont you want to be treated as an equal? Professionals dress with the intention of displaying power, confidence, strength and dependability. Their goal is to display to their clients that they have the ability to perform their needed task. Ninety percent of professional women do that. To the other 10 percent of you who are upset, tough! I just call it like I see it.
I know some of you are going to say, Sex sells. I agree in advertising. If you are trying to look good, look professional. Most men love looking at beautiful, strong, confident women. They respect them. They appreciate them. Most importantly, they do business with them. If you are attractive, trust me, we know it.
