How to Wear Jeans to Work

There are many things to consider if you want to wear jeans to work. There are special circumstances that may make it okay but you have to do it just right or you may get into trouble. These issues may include the jeans themselves, the day of the week, your position, and more. Always play it safe when you are dressing for success.

Professionalism is the most important thing when you are dressing for work. The jeans that you wear to work need to be in good taste. If there are holes in the jeans then they should not be worn to work, even if it is the current style. Jeans need to be new and fresh looking. Don't wear jeans with frays or that look too worn. They may be your favorite but they are not appropriate for wearing to a professional job.

The point is-a dark wash jean without any serious distressing/destruction treatments will looks crisp and clean. People like that. They respect it. Another solid option is a trouser jean because it resembles a more traditional dressy pant. Its slick lines will look sophisticated, and its wide legs will give a stylish draping effect.

Now since you're going to go casual with your jeans, you want to dress up the rest of the outfit with a feminine blouse or button-down, a nice boyfriend blazer, a cropped leather jacket and some cute high-heels or flats. Do not, try to pair your jeans with a t-shirt or sweatshirt and tennis shoes. Those items should *never* be seen in the office.

And if you find yourself wanting to go the business-glam route, go for it! You can add a sequinced top or jacket to your jeans. I am not suggest you dress like you are going to a disco.

I included some examples for your viewing pleasure.
