FASHION FAUX PAS
Dear Fashion Police,
I have this problem. I know it might seem trivial to some, but it is bothering me so much, that I feel the need to let it out to someone and find ways to tackle the issue. Recently, I hired this particular staff as an analyst. She's smart, driven, fast, yada-yada... Obviously, I was impressed and still am. But there's only one problem: Last week, she came in wearing something that looked like a curtain material. And it was ELECTRIC GREEN with ten other colours and motives on it! To add to my horror, her handbag was made from some kind of crocheted material and it had fur balls hanging!!! EEEKKSSS!!!!! Honestly, I almost choked the moment I saw her walking into the office that morning.
Yesterday, she did it again (oops!). She wore a white bubble skirt. Now, please tell me....who in the right mind would wear a BUBBLE skirt to work???? To make it worse, her sweater and her pair of white ballerina pumps have matching ribbons on them. At this point, I was ready to cry!!!
Don't get me wrong, the girl is nice and I don't hate her at all. But she clearly needs help with her wardrobe. I want to make her realize that she'll look better in a dark knee length pencil skirt and plain cream v-neck sweater complemented with a pair of not-so-high black heels. Sometimes, less is more, right?
What should I do?
Yours sincerely,
Stressed out Boss
