Building an Effective Executive Wardrobe Principle #1 Where are You?

You have worked hard to achieve the success you have right now. In today’s highly competitive world, putting attention on cultivating an executive wardrobe will accentuate the professional image that supports your objectives. While you know that you get only one chance to make the all-important first impression, it is equally imperative to make every day a day that you look your very best, even if you have no meetings except for the impromptu get-together you have in the lunchroom or around the water cooler.

Follow these tips to build an effective executive wardrobe that will convey confidence and competence throughout your workday.

Principle #1:  Know the Environment


Office climates are continually changing. Knowing what is considered appropriate for your office environment will ensure that you do not make any expensive mistakes when building your wardrobe. For example, in a conservative office a suit is a must; while in some offices, you might wear a pair of trousers with a sweater set. Keep this in mind when visiting another office that might have a different business dress style than yours.
