Skinny jeans in the workforce can be labelled as a professional fashion faux-pas. With fashion evolving and work places becoming less ‘by the book’ and more on career appearance. Wearing jeans is professionally acceptable, with limitations. You want to make sure you have a solid wash, and no rips. Having no rips is the number one most important rule when wearing denim at the office.

Sticking with a solid black, crisp white, deep navy, or a solid shade is flattering, clean and safe to dress up for your next day at the office. It’s crucial to stay away from a boyfriend fit when wearing denim to work. You have to still keep a professional appearance, and our loving boyfriend jeans unfortunately can’t make the cut to your desk job. A fitted tight skinny is your go to. With that being said, having a comfortable skinny jean is always just as important as appearance. Skinny jeans look exceptionally professional when worn with blouses, blazers, capes, heels or loafers, the list is truthfully endless.
