Relaxed Business Attire Principle #2: Cover It Up!

Principle #2:  Keep Covered

The more skin you show, the less credible you appear.  Period.  If women are perceived in the workplace as dressing sexy, they run the risk of not being taken seriously. Skirts should be at least knee length. Remember to keep cleavage to a minimum, as it’s not appropriate for business. Save your shimmery, glitzy and glittery fabrics for evening attire.

Hosiery is not necessarily required for relaxed business attire.  For women, hosiery is recommended if you wear a skirt. Also, while open-toed shoes allow you to show off your pedicure, they are better left for the weekend.  For men, hosiery is required with slacks.  Save the sockless look for the boat.
