Researchers have discovered associations between clothes, brain activity and productivity show that dressing professionally for work can improve your work performance. Research shows that what we wear sends a symbolic message to our brain. The type of clothing we wear affects how we see ourselves, thereby affecting how we feel. This research has been done by Dr. Adam Galinsky, co-author of the pre-pandemic research and has been discussed in Association for Psychological Science. Researchers performed a study measuring the work performance of two groups of people. One group wore lab coats and the other group wore street clothes. The group wearing lab coats performed better at work. The conclusion is when we dress professionally for work, we perform better at work. You can read more details about this study in the paper called, “Enclothed Cognition”.

How What You Wear for Work Influences Your State of Mind


Today, there is a rise in people working from home. There are still plenty of people who are working at the traditional corporate office. People who work outside of their homes are even more pressed for time because of the time spent commuting for work every day along with the rise of increasing work tasks due to advancing technologies. So Happybeingwell.com has a dress solution for women to wear work pants that are both professional and super comfortable for working at home on zoom calls or in the corporate office running to their desks from meetings to work all day. Plus save time for your after-work leisure time activities because you can still wear them to your yoga class or go out for dinner at a restaurant. You can dress them up or down for any occasion. Wearing leggings that are appropriate for work because the colors are dark, the fabric is high quality, not see-through and using classic traditional prints that look like dress pants that are appropriate for the office is best for any woman to wear who is sitting at her desk for eight hours a day. You feel freer to move compared to wearing heavy and constrictive clothing for eight hours a day.
