WHAT TO WEAR: Internship

January 23rd, 2015 at 2:00am

Waking up flawlessly doesn’t happen everyday. Sadly we can’t all be Beyoncé. However, we are all capable of getting dressed and being the best versions of ourselves, which brings me to landing our dream job or internship. First impressions are extremely important, and what you wear is a contributing factor. Luckily for us, the general rule of business attire is slowly changing. Depending on the job you’ve landed, you might be given the opportunity to express yourself however you please. And who better to represent you other than yourself?

Normally, many would go for the typical suit and tie. However, this Fashionisto gives it a little twist. His whole ensemble shows that he’s ready to take on any task and that he cares enough to look put together. Opting for a simple gingham collared top, he layers it with a denim jacket. Denim jackets are already a wardrobe staple. Their versatility becomes very useful when trying to dress up an outfit, and it keeps him from looking mediocre. The belted, black skinny jeans and brown Chelsea boots give him edginess and sophistication. His shoes will allow him to walk around without his feet hurting later on.

This Fashionisto also proves that a cute messenger bag is a great accessory to have. It’s perfect for carry around your laptop and any other essentials you might need on the job. You always want to be prepared for anything.

Breaking away from the norm is always fun. It spices up our life a little, and there’s nothing wrong with trying something new and embracing who we are at a workplace.

One Simple Change: Going out to dinner with friends after work? Remove the belt and replace the denim jacket with a simple light cardigan.
