What do you guys wear to work? like actual clothes

I am just curious what you wear to workā€¦

Is it sweatpants and house slippers/slides?

Iā€™ve seen some girls wear Nikes/Jordans & booty shortsā€¦

And then Iā€™ve seen some girls wear combat boots, and a pleated faux leather skirt with fishnets/tights/over-the-knee socks.

Iā€™ve seen crocs.

Iā€™ve seen Uggs.

Iā€™ve seen Converse.

Iā€™ve seen big-ass Demonia platform boots with huge chains, buckles, and spikes. šŸ’€ For the goth punk/goth/emo vibe.

Iā€™ve seen maxi dresses girly sandals.

Iā€™ve also seen some girls wear a chunky oversized sweater from the thrift store, and they were literally dressed like a librarian. I actually LOVE this look. šŸ˜‚šŸ‘©šŸ»ā€šŸ«

I was just wondering what you typically wear GOING IN TO WORK, and if it has made a difference for you.

Is it acceptable to wear whatever you want?

It depends on my mood, how I am feeling, what is going on, and honestly, what clean clothes I have available at the time.

Sometimes I will wear pajamas/lounge wear to workā€¦

Some girls do the gym hottie/active/athletic lookā€¦

Some people wear those FashionNova bodysuits/romper thingsā€¦

Some girls wear parkas/down puffer jacketsā€¦

Some girls dress like theyā€™re going to a concert: crop top and denim shorts.

The woman named ā€œDimeā€ from the TV reality show ā€œBeyond The Poleā€ even said she wears nurseā€™s scrubs to the club. Which I thought was hilarious. (And actually pretty smart.)

Sometimes I just wear a cute, casual outfit like a velour tracksuit or Adidas track pants, or a simple top & jeans.

(Do you guys remember when those KAPPA trackpants and slides used to be popular? I feel like I never see them anymore. Guess they were only trendy for a minute, lol.)

Other days I will ā€œdress upā€ a little more, like a bottle girl or a waitress for example (bustier top, push up bra, low-cut, something tight & sexy, usually all black.)

I think for safety purposes it is a good idea to dress down. For walking home at night, driving, parking garage/parking lot, public transitā€¦ and things like that.

One of my go-to outfits is a button-down blouse, and some black pants (trousers/jeggings type of pants). This way, I still feel relatively comfortable and put-together, I can blend in almost any environment, and I am usually less likely to get harassed this way (although they do still TRY ME). When I dress this way, I think I look: (1) academic; (2) ā€œpreppy;ā€ or (3) ā€œworking-class.ā€

I think wearing ALL-BLACK, is also a safe choice.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with sweatpants, and I do wear them a lot of the time, but yoga pants looks a little bit cuter/classier.

Honestly just wear whatever you like and what makes you feel comfortable/practical, or for what you have planned that night/day. Wear what flatters you or wear what you feel good inā€¦

At this point in my life, I have pretty much outgrown wearing AliExpress bodycon dresses and club dresses and kitten heelsā€¦

I donā€™t want to deal with street harassment. I already feel super paranoid and anxious at it is, and I am CONSTANTLY considering my personal safety.

I honestly feel like a two-piece set and some sneakers/comfortable walking shoes, is a perfectly acceptable going-to-work fit.

One of my favorite looks, is when girls do a BIG OVERSIZED THROWBACK BAND T-SHIRT (itā€™s usually Aliyah, or Tupac, or Selena, or a death metal band of some kind). Basically the t-shirt dress. This look is soo cool and sexy to meā€¦

Or anything y2k, I just live for the aesthetic.

Along these same lines, I am also a fan of the ā€œfresh clubbingā€ aesthetic (when the male patrons come in wearing big tees and crew necks from brands like VLONE and PALM ANGELS). But usually only the fuckboys wear this. (If I can find a knockoff, or a used one, then Iā€™d like to try this look. I am not paying $100 for a minimalist t-shirt, you got me fucked upā€¦) Younger dudes donā€™t typically fuck with me. My client base is moreā€¦ professional guys, nerdy guys, guys that look like they could be in a band, drunk guys, normie looking guys, traveling business men, middle-aged men, or married men. Hu$tlers/dope boys/trap guys also fuck with me, but not as often.

I also love it when guys wear dad hats and trucker hats and graphic tees, usually with writing on the back. And it always has something like ā€œMAN CAVE BREWING CO.ā€ on it or something like that. Oh! And guys with tattoos. (Sorry, now Iā€™m hornyā€¦) šŸ™Š

But I have even worn a sundress jean jacket to work. It depended on weather, how I was feeling that day, if I had my period or not, what the season was, what the vibe was, if I had any plans BEFORE or AFTER my shift such as going to a diner or a concertā€¦ etc.

I think a ZIP-UP hoodie or jacket is also a great idea because it wonā€™t fuck up your hairstyle (if you did something really glam, like curled your hair or put rollers in, for example).

Just wanted to know your opinions, and if what Iā€™m doing is ā€œstandard/normal.ā€

Are you a fashionista? Or do you dress for comfort/activity?

I feel like people definitely treat me better when I put more effort into my appearance/presentation.

But then I also kind of feel like it doesnā€™t really matter that much at the end of the day, because we are just going to change into stripper dancewear and lingerie & heels, once we get thereā€¦ šŸ¤”

Sorry, Iā€™m probably overthinking this. I have a really overly analytical mind!
