Casual wear: Dressing for success or for stress? According to a survey completed by the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, dressing casual is a source of workplace anxiety. Like people need another reason to be stressed. I can’t even begin to imagine having this level of restriction placed on my everyday clothing:
“At least on the East Coast, guidelines call for clothes to be “in good taste.” No denim, spandex, jeans, team logo shirts, shorts, halter tops, tank tops, leggings, sweat suits, warm-up suits and provocative or revealing clothing of any kind. No also to moccasins and sandals.”
What? No moccasins? That’s outrageous! I am so glad that my place of employ isn’t wound up to the point of lunacy about what people wear to work. I’m sure that there would be a few eyebrows raised if people decided to wear their gym strip all day, and I would personally draw the line at feather boas (sorry Halcyon…), but cripes, we’ve even had a full-blown pajama day!
