Whether I was going to work or going out, I pretty much looked the same. I wore a simple pair of jeans and a T-shirt.

It was the most comfortable outfit! If I had my way, I would wear sweats all the time, too…

The Importance of Looking Your Best

Whether you step into a social or business situation, the first thing people will notice is how you carry yourself and look.

I can speak the same for myself. When I meet others for the first time, my eyes flicker naturally to their face and grooming. It’s just the way it is. It’s the only metric you have when you first meet someone.

Why not present your best self in these situations by dressing up your best?

Feel Confident in Social Situations

Always feel secure and beautiful inside regardless of how you’re dressed outside. But it certainly does help your confidence when you dress up and go out in parties or social events.

The key is to not be dependent on feeling this way through your dressing. I dress up for myself because it makes me feel gorgeous inside and I love that others compliment me. (Please tell me which woman doesn’t like compliments!) I want my inner beauty to shine outside.

Dress to Impress While Gaining Business Relationships

A key part in gaining and maintaining business relationships is dressing to impress. Always be well groomed and dress professionally when you mingle with business folks.

It shows you are serious about yourself and also a great way to express your individuality in a classy way.
