Maintaining Your Style While Working Remotely

For the past few months, Americans have been hit with the unthinkable… working remotely for an extended period of time. This begs the question: how do we define our style and remain professional while working out of the office? All of a sudden, we have more time in the morning, there's no commute. and no real need for a face full of make up and styled hair, because who will we see? How many of you have found yourself in your PJ’s, no make-up, and unbrushed hair at the end of the day?

Did you feel free or like a slug?

That last question is not a judgement but a real question. Now is certainly a time to experiment with different styles; for example:

  • Try the casual jogger instead of dress pants.
  • Add a sweater or casual comfy pullover instead of a silk blouse.
  • Slip on some cool sneakers instead of those heels!

Have fun experimenting with different looks. Just because we are in a season of being casual, doesn't mean we have to look sloppy and not put together.

Personally, I find that I do everything better if I am dressed everyday with makeup and styled hair. Some days I am pretty casual, but I am always put together. You must be thinking it’s pretty easy me when I have all these fabulous clothes, shoes and jewelry at my fingertips…. But this has been MY mindset forever. It has always been important to look my best, because when I think I look good- I feel good and I am more productive.

So, while you are working at home be casual and comfy, but still try to look put together. It may just make the transition back to work easier.
