Hello! I recently started a PhD and now work in an office with other students. There is no real dress code by any means, people wear outfits ranging from jeans and a T-shirt to long summer skirts and dresses to a suit! But everyone else in the office looks nice and put together. I never look nice and put together.
I really really dislike so much about my body, and so all I’ve I’ve been wearing for years is big T-shirts and sweatpants which I feel conceal me somewhat.
But now I’ve started this PhD I feel like I actually want to dress more like an adult and start looking a bit more put together. But whenever I try to dress ‘nice’, I just feel like everything looks awful on me, and I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. I tried on a bunch of stuff to see if I could plan some easy ‘go to’ outfits that actually look ok.
I’d really hugely appreciate any help or advice about which of the outfits I’ve tried here looks best. It might also be helpful to know what silhouettes might work best on me. I think almost any input would be helpful tbh, I’m lost lol. And thank you to anyone who reads this! Sorry for the slight wall of text 😅
