I was on my way to a meeting on a Sunday. I used the regular transit “yellow Volkswagen” scattered on the road of Lagos. I had a warm reception from every bus I entered and was given a comfortable seat at the front with the pilot of the bus. This treatment was attached to my dressing, i need not a soothsayer to tell me otherwise.
Have you ever heard of the saying," your clothes speaks before you do". Well, it is true. Personal appearance aids to communicate your ideas because clothing is communication and yes, your clothing gossips about to others. Your outward appearance sends messages to the audience that you are ready, neat, well groomed, and conscious of your image and that you regard the occasion as important enough for you to spend extra time and money to look presentable.
Sometimes, people get harassed because of what they wear with no idea that their clothing gave the impression. The psychology of dressing well evaluates how we feel on the inside about the clothes we are wearing. Clothing is about who we are and how we want to portray ourselves to the world. We know that clothing and perception are linked. We evaluate people each day on their appearance and they in turn evaluate us. It attracts and repels people towards us and most importantly. It gossips about your lifestyle.
Take time to invest in your clothing. It speaks to your personality and value. Wearing clothes that are too revealing or not fitting will send the wrong message to people and can damage your reputation. Hence, be mindful of your clothing choices. You can never go wrong with the right outfit. My confidence on that Sunday on a level of 10.
your personality.
