are there any particular colors or accessories that are particularly in vogue for office wear this season?

Post by saaatishs »

As someone who is constantly striving to look their best in the workplace, I am curious about the latest trends in office outfits for women. How can I incorporate current styles into my professional wardrobe while still maintaining a polished and appropriate look? Are there any particular colors or accessories that are particularly in vogue for office wear this season?

Gosh. Your Instagram page didn't survive your post by as much as an hour.

Cream calf elbow-length gloves are particularly in vogue for office wear this season among the typist class, while telephone exchange operators may often be seen in small black lace headwear. Female pit workers continue to work below ground in their slips, but few people get to see that.

Sorry for reviving this thread. Anyone else thinks that black and white is boring?

Black-and-white in terms of clothing is consistently an aspect of right-wing authoritarian settings. No liberal humanitarian would adopt that visual vocabulary.

Purity and clarity, psychological impact, propaganda and messaging where the regime exerts tight control over media and communication and the simplified imagery reduces the risk of subversive elements being hidden in more complex, colourful designs.

Examples definitely include the entire Nazi regime, Mussolini's fascismo, Franco's falange and as many contemporary neo-fascist and far-right movements as you could shake a stick at.

I think that you should wear what you like. As long as it's not dirty or torn.
Also, I think leather accessories look great in an office setting. Something like this briefcase. In my opinion, it gives a professional aura to the worker.

Well, since I've retired, I wear this to my office...which happens to be the nearby lake. And it's still beautiful here in New Mexico...

I'm amazed you can keep hold of a phone out there!

It's in a floatable, sealed lake holder. Cool, huh? And it streams to my powerful lakeshore speaker. The bag attached to the tube has snacks, suntan lotion, and beer...

If that lake has a secluded population of alligator gar you need a harpoon as well.

Nope. Nothing but lots of Rainbow Trout that nibble on your shoestrings. New Mexico has a surprising amount of wildlife, especially here near on the NorthWest Plateau (5,500 ft. = 1677 m.) so close to the San Juan Mountains and the Weminuche Wilderness, but most of it is not dangerous. Even the bears and mountain lion rarely attack. Diamondback rattlesnakes are around, but the only domestic problem is Black Widow spiders. They won't kill a human, but they will make you damned sick.

The real pest, though, are skunks. They can ruin a week pretty quickly just by spraying once on Monday. I spent the summer skunk proofing all 65 m. of fence line around my yard with chicken wire and river rocks. (The river rocks, about soccer ball sized, are round and fall into the hole if the skunk tries to dig under. They can't climb at all, but they are great tunnelers.

As for "particularly in vogue for office wear this season?", might I commend fur? Real, as opposed to fake, fur? Because fake fur is made of fossil fuel and real fur is made of recyclable material?

Thus according to Mark Oaten, at least.

Who? You can't mean who, surely. The chap who was in the running to be leader of the Liberal Democrat party some years ago.

The chap who is now, having retired from politics, head honcho (Executive Officer, perhaps) at the International Fur Federation, representing and regulating the international fur trade. EST 1949.

Wear fur. You know it makes sense.
