Are you worried about how you dress at work? Do you want to be taken seriously? If you are a woman, there are a million options for dressing for the office. Unfortunatley, some women have not learned that others do not often take them seriously if they dress like they are getting ready for an evening outside, opposed to getting dressed for work.

Here are some good guidelines to follow according to careerbuilder.com and business etiquette expert Susan Roane:

1. Skirts: A good rule of thumbis that skirt lengths should be no more than one handwidth above the knee

2. Tops: Don’t wear tops that are too tight or revealing. Make sure that there is at least one inch of room between your body and the fabric, and conceal your midriff. Backs, stomachs, breasts and shoulders should be covered. Don’t wear anything see-through, wear a bra, and keep your straps hidden.
