I always wear a jacket with either skirt & top como or with a dress.  If the skirts are on or above the knee, I will always wear tights with that.  If longer, then I'll bare-leg it (I *hate* tights!).

I've never felt comfortable with the whole Dress Down Friday thing - I would never dress down!  I feel much more comfortable in my work clothes than even casual-smart for work.

And I think I've worn trousers to work twice in the last five years ... but that's just a personal thing as I don't like myself in trousers!

My worst-dressed horror story?  Some years ago I worked for a (world-famous) publisher.  One day I saw one of the editors wearing brown leggings and an orange-&-yellow flowered t-shirt which just met the waistband of the leggings ... no jacket or cardigan to try and pull the two together ... I still shudder now at the thought of it!

And yes, I do think how one looks / dresses is a statement on professionalism but I could be old-fashioned about that!
