Oh that's hideous, all the way down to the Lacoste flats.



I like it! I probably would not choose to wear this outfit but if you MUST wear a polo this is a good look.


I agree. She looks cute, not hideous.


That's a great look! I think the "hideous" poster saw that blog's title and misunderstood. It wasn't meant to imply that the look was a faux pas. Read the "about" and you'll get it.

Also she weighs 12 pounds - and still looks cute in the before pic.

The second pic shows how much a good pair of shows can make up for the shirt, though, I think.

Does it matter? Women don't wear polo shirts.



Hey hey now! I sported a few polo shirts in my camp counselor days!


OP - maybe you just go with that look. Perky ponytail, white visor, khaki shorts, white sneakers and white ankle socks. Make a statement

Honestly, if you are stuck with it, I would own it. Wear the big baggy polo shirt with baggy khakis and bad shoes, like I'm guessing the males in your organization will do (based on this limited insight). Or I would wear the polo over a long sleeved black T-shirt and fitted black pants, emphasizing how ridiculous it looks on you.


Yesss! Wear men's cut pants too. And a fedora and a fake mustache.

Suggest a maroon sweater set with the company logo on the outer sweater. Or a blouse with the logo.

I have a company logo cardigan (kind of a long cardigan) from Land's End Business in black and it looks surprisingly decent.

Might as well be a different shirt. You really think OP is going to be able to turn her shirt backwards (hiding the company logo) and "refashion" it remove the collar?

as a rule, i never get the company polos in womens' cuts. Theyre always short and boxy and awkward. I get mens' small or medium, and then they are longer and leaner and I can tuck them in / style them

I always tuck this type of stuff into a pencil skirt with heels.

Can you imagine if the order the company shirt in a woman's fit style and asked the men to wear it?



I was just thinking something similar. The company ordered polo shirts because they look good on men. So whoever ordered it has an idea that all the employees are men or the token women can deal. It's a little 1980's.

+2
So the men will look sporty/business casual slovenly, but you’ll look shrunken and slovenly.

How is this helpful, she's wearing a very fitted (probably custom fitted) woman's polo.
