Working in an Office Reviews
Newest Review: ... which you have more than one of - alternate colours (last thing you want is your manager pulling you to one side re: personal hygiene, because you have had the same top on for a week even though you have washed it every single night) * All that said, your work wear 'wardrobe' only need consist of 3 different tops (2 to alternate while the other one is in the wash) and 2 pairs of trousers / skirt and a pair of shoes. I started at my current employer went to Primark spent £50 and got 5 different mix and match outfits, shoes, pumps, boots and a handbag! * Don't clip clop around the office in towering heels, low cut tops, tight trousers (men,... more
