How To Make Jeans Work For Work Clothes

Can jeans be worn at work? If you don’t work in a very formal place where business suits are mandatory, then there is a way. It all depends on what you wear WITH those jeans, rather than the jeans themselves. Here is a look that makes jeans work very well – wear the jeans with a crisp white blouse, a black suit jacket and a classic pearl necklace. For business casual, turn jeans into an office outfit by pretending it is a business suit only that you exchanged the suit pants for the jeans. And if you put a pair of nice pumps and perfect nails with that, no-one can criticize you.

If your work place requires traditional business attire, then don’t do it unless they have specifally said you can wear jeans on “casual Friday”. A professional wardrobe normally wouldn’t include jeans, but if you can wear casual work clothes, then the way to go is to dress them up with a suit jacket and a professional blouse.
