The summer has drawn to a close. People have once more started covering their bodies with more layers of clothing in order to accommodate the wildly fluctuating temperatures of the fall. HOWEVER...That doesn't mean that some people do not try to keep summer alive. The sad, sad truth is that companies need to put forth some sort of dress codes. If only to educate the clueless.
This summer my eyes have been assaulted with cleavage baring tops on people where more fabric is a necessity not a fashion statement. Skirts that with a stiff wind or an inappropriate bend the world would be privy to their privates. More knarly, sparkly flip-flops that were stinky bio-hazards that did not belong in a corporate environment. All of the above a direct violation of the company's dress code.
People. I am not the fashion police. I'm sure that people look at me and say I could desperately use a make over. But when I leave the house in the morning, I know that no fashion catastophe will happen. All my bits and parts will stay properly covered and never see the light of day so that my co-workers will wish never had happened.
The advice of a good friend follows : Folks – put a mirror in your foyer – one last look before you leave for work, doesn’t hurt. If you have to question to yourself whether or not something is appropriate, it probably isn’t!
