Why You Should Wear Comfortable Dresses to the Office
Dresses help you look put-together instantly and you don’t have to worry about gaping button-down blouses, loose buttons, shirt tucks and/or bellies sticking out of your skirts (comfort means skipping shapewear, too). The key is to opt for styles that look sharp and office-appropriate.
That doesn’t mean you can only wear black dresses. Four other styles you can opt for when it comes to shopping for roomy dresses include elegant details, classy prints, bold colours and even faux leather.
If you work in a conservative office, wear these dresses with accessories in neutral tones like black, white, grey, beige, brown or grey. To get you started, here is a list of 11 comfortable dresses that prove comfort and style can go hand in hand.
