Leather and the Workplace

Lets talk Leather for a moment.

At the mere mention of "Leather", one's mind immediately runs off to make an associate of the material to some punk rock type with dark make-up and Emo tendencies. If not that, then the reference jumps off to a bad biker dude with a Harley and dark sunglasses.

At no point in time does the mind imagine leather being paired up with a soft pastel-coloured cotton or perhaps something floral and flimsy. For many years, the workplace has been completely devoid of leather for those exact reasons- When one wakes up to get ready for another day on the 9-5 grind, their choice of attire, the constant subconscious reminder to abide by the "Corporate Look" code of conduct does not in any way consist of wearing leather.
It's an unwritten, unspoken rule. (Just goes to show how the corporate world has us on ball and chain lockdown)

SO we've chosen a few pictures that will show just how fantastically leather can work for the salary grind.

 
 

The trick for getting it right lies in the fit (for pants and jackets) and the length (for skirts)
If you don't want the boss and H.R calling you because of an "incorrect dress code, then make sure that skirt ATLEAST grazes the knees and extra ensure that the pants you wear NEVER have you pulling them out from your inner thighs because they're too tight.

                                                           

Now off you go. Get that item you've been eyeing in the store and wear it to the office. If they ask, tell them QUEERNTESSENTIAL THREADS gave it the thumbs up.....

SERVED!!!
