I was recently hired for a summer job as a Roving teller for a bank in my home town. I am 19 years old, and have no idea what to wear for this business-like atmosphere, and where a good place would be to go and buy new clothes. I want to be able to dress appropriately for the job, but i dont want to sacrifice my style and go to work looking like a little kid dressing in 'mom's clothes' Any suggestions for summer work clothes/shoes/accessories? I am 5'3" 125 lbs, dark short curly hair, dark eyes and olive toned skin
Black dress pants and a good pair of semi-dressy khakis are a good bet. Also, collared shirts are a must for a bank. Shoes- not too high, but don't succumb to flat shoes- a little bit of a heel is better- if you have to stand all day try to bring two pairs of shoes so you can change them in the middle of the day- I worked for six years in a shoe store and had (and have) a tendency to choose inappropriate footwear to wear to work- but by changing my shoes and rotating them I never suffered and still looked good.
