Just because the weather's getting colder doesn't give you an excuse to neglect your fashion sense.
Although the workplace has become more casual, your ensemble still plays a role in the way you're perceived, says Tiffiny Dixon, the founder of MEO, a fashion consultancy.
"You want to wear something empowering," she says. "When you look empowered, you feel empowered, and you'll perform better in your job."
"During the winter, you should avoid the urge to be overly casual as you're layering up."
There are some basic rules to follow, no matter if you work on Wall Street or at a startup.
To convey Dixon's tips, we've asked some of our colleagues at Business Insider to model for us.
Clusterstock Editor Linette Lopez models her winter dress coat, which is something everyone should invest in, says Tiffiny Dixon, founder of fashion consultancy MEO. "Wearing a suit with a ski parka is not going to work."
To protect long pants, go for a nice pair of boots, like what Clusterstock Reporter Julia La Roche is wearing here. "You don't want a damp, soggy hem," Dixon says.
Money Game Editor Sam Ro is wearing a nice pair of leather shoes. Dixon says this is a great investment, because the leather will protect your shoes from snow and rain.
