dress for success

You can have anything you want in life if you dress for it- Edith Head

Dressing For The Part




Ever walked into a place of business and wondered why an employee is dressed a certain way and how did the even get the job?? Like why would someone work in a school in which there are children but have on daisy dukes. Or your going to see a lawyer and he's dressed in jeans and sneakers. Is this the ideal person you want teacheribg your child? Would this person be someone a judge would take serious let alone you?

Yes your cloths are an expression of who you are as an individual, there is a also a time and place for everything. Just like your cloths describe you YOU describe your place of business. You want people to treat you a certain way depending on you profession. A clown would not want to be taken serious as he is there to make people laugh. Therefore he would not put on a suit. Let 1stClassLadies give you a helping hand in figuring out what appropriate work attire is.

-If you have to check twice its not right. If you put on an outfit and have to keep fixing it in the mirror like pulling it down, twisting it around, or even have to ask yourself if it's right- its not! Checking it in the house mirror is one thing but there are not mirrors at ever corner at work and you don't want to feel insecure in your clothing.

- Know what cloths are appropriate. Ask yourself "will I like the attention I will get in this" " can this outfit be perceived as to much/to little" "if I was someone looking at me would the reaction be a positive one or negative." If the answer is no or negative to any of these then it's not right and you shouldn't wear it.

- A uniform CAN go wrong. Some people are required to wear a uniform for work. Though this is convenient it too can be wrong. Most companies used uniforms to look professional and in order to have staff look like a team. It should not be wrinkle, washed out or small fitting. Take care of your uniform as you would your everyday cloths. It is apart of your wardrobe as well.

Even Santa keeps it clean

Understand they once you have the job you don't stop looking and bring your best. Dress everyday ready and prepared. If you dress right, you feel right and if you feel right you do right! If you need help ASK!! 1stClassLadies can not stress enough in our articles how important it is to be safe then sorry.

We act the way we dress. Neglected and untidy clothes reflect a neglected and untidy mind- Unknown
