Colour plays a significant part in the professional image. Wear colours based on a neutral colour palette such as black, maroon, white, navy, cream, charcoal, and grey. Most of these colours work well in pantsuits, skirts and shoes and mix back with softer feminine colours that are appropriate like ice blue, lilac, soft pink and ivory.

Mix Complicated Hairstyles & Accessories

Remember, prints compensate for accessories. Skip dangly earrings, loud headbands, and even bright glasses to keep the look more professional. Solid colours still give you some scope for accessories like diamond studs, pearl studs or pearl neckpiece. Avoid using too many different colures in accessories. Try braids like fresh braid, side braids, French roll. A sleek hairstyle is in fashion; try a neat wrap around ponytail. Keeping hair open is an option for those with short hair, so, it is advisable for women with long hair to keep it tied up.

Prints: Smaller The Better

You do not want to draw unnecessary attention towards you at the workplace so playing low key on the prints is the best strategy. Thoughtful detailing of the prints is catchier than loud prints. Floral prints are in fashion, so, try playing with them while choosing your blouse; you can choose small rose prints on a white base or on pistachio base.

Mindful Pairing

A balance in bottom wear and tops is a must. Find the right balance of cutesy prints like flowers, cats, or hearts with traditional bottom wear. Whimsical patterns can be appropriately paired with more conservative fare like cigarette pants, simple skirts, dark cardigans, and solid-colour tights. Present yourself as an organized, professional person by carrying bag with structured styles in basic leather colours (black, beige or brown). Slouchy, or printed, colourful handbags can look sloppy.

Cuts & Curves

When talking about professional work clothes, all suits should be tailored to fit close to the body. Stick to items with a contemporary cut and avoid anything that has ill-fitting or too large. The perfect Indian body type is mostly the guitar or pear shape (slightly heavier bottom), so go for nicely fitted trousers, pants. Note that pants should be fitted but not too tight, and should free of visible panty lines. Skirts should hit at the knee or below, and especially for straight styles like pencil skirts, they should be loose enough to sit down comfortably. Do not wear tight fitted clothes at work.So, follow these fashion tips and become the Instagram queen for the fall season.
