Dress for Success

My mother always taught me to make sure "you dress the part".  She instilled this in me for several reasons, here are two 1. you never know who you may see or meet and 2. it shows that you are prepared for the occasion and dressed appropriately.  I have taken this lesson and apply it to everything--from work to exercising to casually hanging with the boys and my friends.  I believe if you have the right clothes, you will have the right mindset.  The right outfit has the power to change your mood.  The wrong outfit can damper your mood.  One of my girlfriends laughs every time I workout because I have stated that I have "cute" work out clothes.  I don't own any baggy sweats!  I also pride myself on coordinated golf outfits...and I'm "unofficially" the best dressed golfer at my local golf course (according to the golf pro).   I think of everyday as an opportunity to walk the runway, wherever your runway is.  Think about it, if you were going to walk the runway wouldn't you give a second thought to your outfit?  When you dress for success (and the part) people take you more seriously, it says "I mean business".   So, for inquiring minds, this is why I dress for success.
