Can you be professional with reddish purple highlights? Most people in the corporate world are opposed to the funkiness of life, but I’m not. I like the out of the box work wear of skinny cargo pants and bulky big knit sweaters. I wear the uber high pumps with the trouser pants and a floral sweater. I’m not in the box, suit and tie kind of girl. So are purple highlights OK? My office is business casual. My attire is business casual. My outlook on life is fun and fabulous. I’m more driven by style and comfort, than professional. I don’t do polo’s, I do button downs menswear vests and shirts, though. I guess I’m a conundrum.
Well my last freaky hairstyle before I got married was maroon top with horribly bleached underneath. It took a full year to get it back to normal. Our office manager has red, maroon, or deep magenta hair every 3 months. So with the thinking that as long as I abide by the clothing rules of semi professional, nothing revealing, I can pull off orchid looking highlights, with grace and style.
I guess being the youngest person in the building kind of gives me an edge. I have a little free will to experiment with business style and still be OK. At least I’ve never gotten reprimanded for my outfits, or my clip in hair. I don’t want to fit into a mold, I want to be me and with everything I do, I know that I will be.
