There are plenty of reasons! Dressing the part plays a starring part in a ton of aspects of your life story. Imagine your workplace, your love life and your day to day activities.
It's almost all in the way you look, I've seen numerous people get promoted just due to the fact that they have at all times looked certified. Maybe looking certified didn't get them the job but at least it got them the interview! Most women also welcome a man who knows how to play with apparel, it makes them conceive their man is assured and accomplished. The way people see things is key in day to day activities and the way you wear clothing has a large impact on it.
It's a given fact that it takes only 30 seconds for someone to make up their mind on what they believe you. Imagine if you look similar to a fool? I'm certain you get the picture.
So why not simply go ahead and take charge, move in the right direction simply by looking wonderful. It might open a few doors manyweren't expecting.
Here is a list of tips to help you and fashion mistakes to avoid!
- Too much jewelry. Put the jewelry away P. Diddy or should we call you Puff Daddy? If you want to wear jewelry, opt for a classy pair of designer cufflinks.
- Comb-overs. These shout insecurity. Shave it, lose it or cover it.
- Never wear both a belt and suspenders. The combination makes you appear less confident - you big wuss.
- Socks should match your pants. Easy as 1, 2, 3.
- Backpacks. OK, maybe this is just a minor mistake, but you're trying to climb the corporate ladder, not hike up a mountain.
- Wear the right size pants ok? Pants should be long enough to cover your socks, and socks should cover your shins even when you cross you legs. Pants are long enough if they have a slight break in the front. Pleats and cuffs are traditional and functional. Pleats let you sit down comfortably and cuffs add weight to the bottoms allowing for proper drape.
- The Button-Down collar dress shirt is simply not acceptable for dressy formal wear nor with a double-breasted suit. That's because even though it's now a daytime business classic, it was originally a sport shirt worn by polo players.
- Your shoes should be clean, shined, repaired and appropriate for the occasion. If you are wearing a suit, wear lace-up shoes. Don't forget to keep shoetrees in your shoes when you're not wearing them.
- Chunky Shoes. Lose them, the Axel Rose era is over.
- Ponytails. You're not the rock star of your office. Spend the 20$ for a haircut, you can afford it.
- Belts should match your shoes.
- Ties should reach your belt line. This is simply the rule. A short tie makes you look like a dufus.
- Properly knotted ties have a "dimple" under the knot. Clips and tacks are out of date.
- Never wear a short sleeve shirt with a tie. Actually, never wear a short sleeve shirt period. Short sleeve shirts are perceived to be worn only by lower class people. You can wear one if you aspire to be a McDonald's manager, not if you want to project a professional image.
- Socks with Sandals. Even if you live in Maine, don't do it - you'll look like a schmuck.
- Clashing or too many colors. Do you really want to look like a gay pride flag? Stick to complementary colors (those opposite from each other on the color wheel) or colors from the same pallet.
