What Does Your Style Say About Your Work?

October 15, 2012 No Comments »

You are being judged right now. Someone today has looked at you and judged you only by what you’re wearing. Maybe a woman on the street liked your shoes and thought, “She looks great.” Or conversely, it could be that someone thought, “Uhh, I hate that color on her.” Your clothing is saying things about you even when your mouth is closed. It’s just a fact of life.

Real Simple took this notion of judgment to the pages of their magazine and asked experts from multiple fields to share their thoughts about people who dress a certain way. The responses are both thought-provoking and straight-forward. Find your main “look” below and find out what the Real Simple professionals think about you:

Knowing how you’re potentially being viewed by others can help you to adjust your look to a better combination of approachable and professional. Do the work and find your style. Dressing impeccably can mean combining your style with others to create a happy medium.
