The truth is also that it does cost some money to dress up. That being said, dressing up can be a lot less expensive than you might think and I strongly suggest you check out this video on 15 things you can do to dress like a gentleman on a budget. Even if you do have to spend a little more, it really pays to look at it more of an investment rather than an expense. 1. People Won't Take You Seriously As a consequence, you won't take yourself as seriously and you will think that you can't achieve certain things even though you could do them. No matter the situation, dressing well gives you an air of authority and it usually means dressing up. Yale conducted an interesting study of mock real estate negotiations; they had men dressed up, dressed neutral, and dressed down. The men who dressed down felt at a disadvantage from the get-go and ultimately, they lost more money and deferred more money to the people who were better dressed. 2. People Who Dress Up Make More Money Over The Course Of Their Career People who dress up make more money over the course of their career just think about it if your boss doesn't take you seriously and if he doesn't respect your work why would he promote you even if you don't believe the studies and think that it worked has changed 75% of men think that their well-dressed counterparts are more successful in their jobs. 3. You Look Less Attractive Three, you will look less attractive. You can't change your physical features aside from working out and even if you work out, the fact remains that if you wear a suit or if you dress up, if you dress well, you will always look better than the equivalent person in a t-shirt and sweatpants. 4. Dressing Down Will Keep You From Doing Things When you wear sweatpants and your t-shirt, you don't feel it's appropriate to go out on the street so you just stay in, hang out on the couch, order pizza and watch Netflix. In my opinion, your clothes should not hold you back, they should help you move forward. 5. Dressing Down Makes You Look Lazy Five, dressing down makes you look lazy. Yes, it's easy and cheap to buy a pair of t-shirt and sweatpants, at the same time, that's exactly the message you communicate "I'm cheap and lazy" 6. What You Wear Is Not Just About You Tom Ford once said that dressing well is a form of good manners and if you think about it, it's a form of showing respect to others, it's a form that you show respect for the event you're at, and in turn, you will earn more respect from others for that. 7. Dressing Well Makes You Feel Confident & Powerful In turn, that leads to you doing things that you otherwise might not have done if you were dressed down. It could be things like asking your boss for that raise or asking out that woman that you have a crush on. 8. Dressing Down Costs More In The Long Run Yes, t-shirts are inexpensive and so are sweatpants, at the same time, they're usually made of low-quality materials and so they wear out a lot more. 9. You Never Know Who You're Going To Meet A couple of years ago, I was on an airplane flight and when I travel, I always try to dress well, that means I wear a jacket, I wear some chinos, some leather shoes, I wear a bowtie or regular tie, and that really makes me better dressed than 99.9% of people who fly. #notsponsored #dressingdownisoverrated #whyyouneedtodressup --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to stay updated?
