When you're working every day, you have different roles. You may be meeting clients, or working at a desk, or going from the office to a business event. One business outfit doesn't work for every occasion any more.

Here are 3 tips for dressing for success in 2008

1. Dress for the job you want. You should be dressing for the job you see yourself doing in that company. If you want to be president or head of the company, don't wear jeans and a t-shirt, even on business casual days. Look at the people above you. If they are dressed conservatively, or wear suits every day, you lessen your chances of promotion when you wear jeans to the office.

2. Keep up the smart look. You probably showed up for your job in a business suit, and spent a long time getting ready for the interview. But once you have the job, the daily struggle of getting ready for the office makes you grab whatever is available. Be careful about this. You still need to make sure your wardrobe is fresh. Does that blouse need a wash? Do those pants need to be cleaned and pressed - or replaced with an updated style?

3. Dress to impress, not to be noticed for the wrong reasons. When people notice how you look, are they commenting that you look sharp and professional, or are they asking if you are going to a party after work? If people ask you if you have a special occasion, take note of what you are wearing. Is it too fancy, see through, or somehow inappropriate for the office? Rethink what you are wearing, so you are noticed for the right reasons.
