APPROPRIATE APPEARANCE

Appearance and knowing the appropriate cloths to wear for different events are very important and since I hate to dress up to go anyway, I prefer to stay home.

I love casual cloths. They are so comfortable and simple to wear. I love clothes that I do not have to iron because I hate ironing. It is easier to grab a pair of jeans or shorts with a shirt with flipflops than wear a shirt suit with high heels. Sometimes I wear formal clothes to formal events like weddings, but I return home quickly to remove them so I can wear casual clothes.

Recently I started my own company, so now I have to attend a lot of meetings, formal parties and meet important clients. I have to wear formal clothes to most of these events. I wish I can wear casual clothes to work and to all the formal events every time but unfortunately I have to endure the formal clothes. Since I work for myself, I can wear casual clothes to the office but I have decided to wear formal clothes. All my workers have to wear formal cloths too. It is important we all look presentable at work every time.

When I started my own company, I realised how important it is to wear the appropriate clothes to meet clients, business partners or to formal events. You can win or lose important clients and business partners based on your appearance. Society has made looking formal to meet certain people or go to certain places mean you are more presentable. People judge your appearance. The more presentable you look, the more serious they will take you and give you respect. Formal clothes makes us look more presentable than casual clothes.

I wish I can hire someone to attend all my formal events for me so that the person wears all the formal clothes but unfortunate I have to attend them myself. I need to be there to meet or talk to clients, business partners and make decisions for my own company.

Life is about endurance. I will try my best to endure all the formal clothes. Until casual clothes become accepted to formal events, I continue with the struggle to dress up to work and for formal events.
