It came as a shock to me that what you wear and how you wear it can say more to others then what actually comes out of your mouth. It’s truly impossible to ignore the first impression and no matter how brilliant you might sound that polka dot tie makes you seem like a clown. It’s not like you must wear a suit in tie at every occasion( it looks silly at a rock concert) but knowing what to wear and when to wear it can make all the difference in the world.
You can still have your individuality but that doesn’t mean you wear white in winter (almond will do just fine). I’ve personally decide not to over budget for my attire but that doesn’t mean I can’t find a way to look sharp. It just means I have to think twice about what I’m working with. Clothes doesn’t make the man or woman but it definitely can’t hurt
