I saw this on the internet - and although it refers to promotion it really applies to all aspects of our business and social life:
Tom Musbach, Yahoo! HotJobs
"Fashion really does make a statement -- especially in the workplace. What you wear on the job could help determine whether you get promoted, according to a new survey.
In a Yahoo! HotJobs poll on workplace fashion issues, a majority of the general workforce (68%) and HR professionals (82%) believe that how employees dress at work affects their chances for a promotion.
"How you dress at work definitely shapes how others perceive you," says Susan Vobejda, vice president of marketing for Yahoo! HotJobs. "Our survey shows that it's worthwhile to choose your work attire carefully, because those choices could help to move your career forward." More than half of the survey respondents (57%) said they would be willing to buy a new wardrobe in order to get a promotion."
In this day and age, the suit is still in fashion, but we have seen a trend that allows quality collared shirts, However, unless you are selling farm and ranch - blue jeans are never a good idea.
