適時穿衣法則

　　在不同的場合，穿衣的搭配也要有所不同。小編為大家整理了適時穿衣法則。希望對你有幫助哦!

　　The interview

　　Obviously requirements vary wildly. The more conservative the workplace, the easier it is – go for a great suit (not necessarily matching) in a versatile colour, or a tailored dress. It gets trickier with more creative jobs, but the ground rules are the same. Good-quality classics are universally appreciated and you can semaphore your style credentials by ramping up the accessories as required. Fashion’s obsession with shoes comes into its own here – wear the straightest of suits with a pair of statement heels and you’ll score points in the most design-conscious environments (and if you’ve overestimated the grooviness of prospective employers, you can always tuck your fashion moment out of sight under a desk).

　　The hot date

　　The temptation with first dates – as with first novels, first albums and first babies – is to channel every idea, whim and theory you’ve ever had into action. Relax. You really don’t have to put it all out there in one hit. Accessible but aspirational has to be the ideal combination, surely? While you’re at it, something that makes it clear that your dream night out is not a trip to that great little cinema that’s still showing Lesbian Vampire Killers, without having to spell it out, would presumably be handy, so choose from the sophisticated end of your wardrobe. And although you’d be insane not to want to presentyour best side, you don’t want to be dishonest. A bit of body-consciousness isn’t a bad idea, but needs qualifying – an over-sized tailored jacket over a cut-away vest top or a tight dress should strike the right balance. Men find bondage shoes distracting, and not necessarily in a good way, but if you love them (the shoes, that is), be true to yourself. Most men, poor deluded innocents, say they hate make-up, but what they mean is that they’re not crazy about lots of obvious make-up, unless, of course, that’s what you were wearing when you met, in which case, presumably, you’re their kind of woman. Any suggestion of excessive high maintenance is a turn-off, but this isn’t a fashion faux pas that needs masking, it’s a character defect that needs addressing.

　　Black tie

　　One woman’s gala dress is another woman’s choice for putting out the rubbish. Never be frightened to ask the hosts for clarification, although if they’re expecting long, the onus is on them to stipulate it. The LBD is the obvious stand-by, but like all stand-bys, you can probably do better. The right colour gives the simplest dress much more impact. If you’re wedded to black, get yourself some major jewellery and opt for neutral or colourful accessories. If you don’t have an appropriate coat, invest in a cropped jacket instead; they’re easier to find on the high street than a good evening coat and you can wear them in the day with jeans. If you’re on a tight budget, it’s definitely worth checking out vintage sites such as www.atelier-mayer.com for classy bargains – cheap evening dresses tend to look it.

　　Not black tie (but definitely smart)

　　Urgh. Oh, for the days of stipulated dress codes... If you’re finding it impossible to gauge what’s expected, but don’t want to end up looking safe and predictable, you’ll find a skirt in a luxurious texture – metallic, tweed, velvet, silk, sequins or any combination thereof – an excellent ally. Then you can either go down the silk T-shirt route, or, if you’re feeling demure, a cashmere sweater. Add some striking shoes, a textured evening bag and one or two show-stopping jewels and you’ve got an outfit that’s both classic and individual.
