15 Things You should not wear to work

January 14, 2020 by Moumous |

Hi everyone,

How you dress at work is important, even with “corporate casual” established as the office standard. I often got questions /compliments how I always put together in my work wear. Last year, I gave you some tips on what should be included in your work wardrobe and left a door opened for you to become creative and have some fun as we go to work every day and don’t want it to become boring. As a follow-up to those post available here, here and here, today I am sharing 15 things not to wear to work.

  1. Yoga pants
  2. Tracksuit pants ;
  3. Bandage dress;
  4. Sneakers;
  5. Cartoon prints or prints with animal to work. Leave Mickey House, Betty Boop and those flamingo prints at home. Same goes for neon;

  1. Wear animal prints moderately: a pair of shoes to elevate a look or a cute top under your blazer. Don’t go for a dress or a head-to-toe animal print look;
  2. Casual T-shirt;
  3. Ripped jeans, shorts;
  4. Clothes that are too tight. You don’t want to give the wrong impression no matter what;
  5. Bags with wear and tear. Invest in quality. They last longer;

  1. Dirty or wrinkled clothes;
  2. Jingly jewelry;
  3. Heels that clank;
  4. Low-waist pants;
  5. Too much makeup.

Outfit details:

Shirt Brook brothers (exact same available here) | 

Pants @glamurboutique | 

Shoes @Khiani | Handbags Zac Posen @Luminescense

So what else would you recommend not to wear to work. Please comment below and share your thoughts. I would love to hear from you.

Thanks for stopping by. 

XoXo,

Moumous

Bitter and sweet… my heart walks in shadows and light, but my soul remains draped in red and blue. We carry our flag in our eyes, even when the days feel heavy. 🇭🇹

Wearing the flag not just on me, but within me. Honoring Haiti, always.

Gone are the days of stiff suits and predictable palettes. The modern woman leads with softness, structure, and undeniable style.

In my latest blog post, I explain why the denim power suit is redefining authority and how you can make it work for your wardrobe, without sacrificing comfort or personality. From brooches to wide-leg pants, this look speaks before you even say a word.

💥💥💥Wrapping up the birthday celebration ( 💥💥💥Wrapping up the birthday celebration (finally... maybe?), I just want to say THANK YOU for the avalanche of love, warm wishes, hugs, calls, surprises, and everything in between. 💛

This birthday apparently started in April and is still going strong — I guess we’re doing birth season now? I’m not mad about it. 😂

To the instigator of this surprise party… I see you 👀. I hate surprises — and Lord & @carlic9 (yes, and you @dgiegie and maybe @foyinthekitchen and @mariemaudnl should!) KNOW it. But you pulled this off in such a thoughtful, me-centered way, I couldn’t help but melt.

And that birthday book of testimonials?? Y’all really said, “let’s ruin her eyeliner today.” 😭 I’m speechless. There won’t be any onions left for @casse_croutebyfoy to survive Wings & Things week. 😅

Grateful. Overflowing. Deeply touched.
Surrounded by beautiful souls and even more beautiful energy.

To friends who become family — I love you more than words can say.

Here’s to love, laughter, and being so, so seen. 💫💕
