April is coming soon.

It's a time when everyone is starting a new life, such as those who welcome new members of society with a mixture of expectations and anxiety, and those who start working at a new workplace.

In recent years, as online classes and remote work have become more common, the standards for choosing clothes and accessories may have changed slightly.

When working from home without commuting or meeting people in the office, it is easy to choose comfortable clothes, but there are also situations such as web conferences and online business meetings where you need to be careful about what you wear.

Even on days when you don't have any plans to interact with anyone, try to be as careful as possible when choosing your attire, so that you have a sense of balance between on and off days, and so you don't have to rush into an impromptu meeting.

This time, we'll introduce tips on how to look neat when wearing clothes for telework , ways to make your work more focused , and recommended accessories .

What is telework?

Telework is a general term for work styles other than office work, and its origin is a coined word that combines the words "tele" and "work."

Telework is mainly classified into three types.

Telecommuting: Working from home

Mobile work: Working while traveling by train, Shinkansen, etc., at cafes, family restaurants, client locations, etc.

Satellite office work: Working in another office or remote work facility

In recent years, an increasing number of companies have implemented telework as described above as a countermeasure against the coronavirus pandemic and sudden disasters.

Teleworking has benefits such as reducing commuting time, leading to a more fulfilling private life, being able to balance childcare and nursing care, and making it easier to continue working.

Choosing clothes for telework

When you hear telework or working from home, you imagine a high degree of freedom and being able to work at your own pace.

On the other hand, since I am working from home, where I would normally be able to relax, I often end up working for long hours and have trouble concentrating on some days.

So, to avoid going into off-mode, why not change your mind by adjusting your makeup, clothes, and other aspects of your appearance?

Makeup and clothes appropriate for work

It's tempting to wear comfortable clothes to work at home, but changing into work-appropriate clothes instead of loungewear will make you feel more energetic.

It may be a good idea to stick to materials that are comfortable to wear and easy to move around in while still looking solid.

Create an item that turns on and off

What I would like to recommend here is how to accentuate your look with easy-to-incorporate accessories and small items .
Here are some recommended accessories that will help you switch into work mode.

Items that you often see will increase your motivation.

You can wear your favorite ring to work or paint your nails to change your mood.
Working from home allows you to lift your mood with your favorite design items.
We also recommend narrow rings and pinky rings that make it easier to move your hands.

We also recommend wristwatches that don't get in the way of your work in terms of visibility.

When working from home using a computer or smartphone for long periods of time, we recommend wearing glasses that block blue light or tinted cheek-colored lenses as accessories.

Please check with the store as it may come with a special lens or may be replaced.

scent

Sleep comfortably with a soothing scent

A scent that helps change your mood. The ``Ultrasonic Moisturizing Aroma Diffuser'' and ``Cordless Aroma Diffuser'', which can also be used as indirect lighting for your bedroom, diffuse the natural scent of essential oils using ultrasonic vibrations.

Before going to bed, be surrounded by your favorite scent.

It is also recommended to place aromatherapy around your desk and use the scent to change your mood.

Points to make a good impression at a meeting

Keep office casual in mind

It's safe to bring casual office items such as jackets and blouses, just like you would for a face-to-face meeting, but as long as you don't think too hard and keep it neat and not too formal or too casual, you'll be fine!

Jackets and cardigans can be worn with casual clothes and can be used for everyday use, so it's convenient to have one on hand.

bring in colors

When it comes to web conferences and even online business negotiations, a positive impression is important.

It's a good idea to keep your makeup natural and conscious of your complexion , or add some color to your tops such as blouses .

Patterned items may flicker on the screen, so it is best to choose one that is bright, clean and plain .

Brighten up your look with accessories

Why not choose earrings and necklaces that make your face look gorgeous and make your face look smaller?
Since there are many cases where only the upper body is shown beyond the screen, try to make that part more impressive.

Earrings

Choose a small one that fits your ears and has a design that won't shake.

necklace

Choose one that is thin and delicate .

The motif is preferably one that looks modest and elegant, such as a single grain type .
The color can be either gold or silver.

Accessories selected by occupation

I have introduced general office casual clothes, but in the apparel industry where a high degree of fashion is required, it is assumed that you look elegant, but if it is not too unique, you can choose something large.

summary

When working from home, you have to be conscious of giving a sharp, clean and neat impression.

However, the most important thing is to work in a way and fashion that makes you feel comfortable .

At novice , we have a wide variety of accessories that are reasonably priced and have elegant designs that are available for less than 2,000 yen .

Please choose reasonable novice accessories for telework or work.

I hope this will be helpful for those who are planning to telework or those who are already teleworking but are having troubles.

I hope your new life will be better.
