3 tips to give that extra sparkle to your school or work uniform

Making a good first impression counts! According to IHTTI Hospitality & Design Management student, Annelotte Teves, even if you must wear a uniform, it is still possible to make sure you stand out and get noticed.

Here are her 3 tips on how she manages to give that extra sparkle to her school uniform.

1. Stay professional but use the little details to stand out

Professional attire can be very plain. The clever use of accessories including handbags, shoes, jewelry, how you tie your scarf or fold your pocket square can help you distinguish your look from everyone else. For the ladies, a great red lipstick with a matching nail polish is also standout way to pull together an outfit.

2. Be well groomed

If you look well-groomed, the people you meet will see that you are taking good care of yourself indicating that you will likely take good care of your tasks on the job too. Obviously, it is not just about grooming but it can certainly help!

3. There are not any big no-no’s when it comes to your own taste

We are all individuals and free to decide how to express ourselves. Dare to try new combinations and good luck!
