Old saying goes: "Clothes don't make the man". or the woman, or the child, or even the french poodle..... I will call bullschitt on that. The lazy slobs who invented the crap line of "clothes don't make the man "...was some dumpy slobs who was living in sweat pants, Crocs and a t -shirt while living in mama's basement. I guarantee...if you dress nice and smile..people treat you nicer than the bum in the Chili stained b'itch beater. All kinds of em out there.....The ones that dress "up" are a little harder to spot right away though...It usually takes a good beating or two before you really begin to see past the Gucci loafers... . |

Sure, if you dress nice (clean jeans and tee is nice} and smile peeps are going to respond more positively then if you don't....that is not the same as saying "cloths don't make the man"....Sorry, but cloths don't change the inside of ANYONE and to think they do is kinda stupid in my book.... However, I always dress better with a woman's help. |

I don't wanna step on anyones blue suede shoes or nothin
My confidence level is identical whether I'm wearing a tux or ripped jeans. If someone feels their attire commands respect, well good on them! I'd be happy to challenge anyone on dress code theories... me, in casual jeans & T.... them, snappily dressed. You Name it, asking for directions... asking for the time... striking up random conversations with strangers... asking a nice lady out for coffee. I guarantee the person who judges me on my clothes, isn't worth getting to know anyways lol |

Cool by me....though I laugh as I disagree. When I dress to the nines, got my hair looking good....and feeling groovy....I am unstoppable. Everyone got an opinion.... I like hanging out with slobs in their sweat pants, sneakers and t -shirts....they make me look like even better. Same concept as hanging out with the ugliest person in a bar....they make "average " look "awesome ". For you kids who think less is more............you keep on believing it. |

Laughter is good, so I'm happy to provide you that, but the above sounds very superficial to me....Yep, opinions are like azzholes, thank goodness!.... |

question:

I have to agree with Krupa on this. I think some people are misunderstanding what "dressing well" means. It doesn't mean expensive clothes or even formal clothes. It means wearing clothes that fit--that fit YOU--that emphasize the best parts of your body and camouflage the less perfect parts--and that are appropriate for what you are doing. Anyone who has ever watched What Not to Wear will know that I'm echoing their opinions.
I'm constantly horrified by the number of people who wear clothes that are way too big for them, shirttails hanging down, visible stains showing, men with their pants falling off their butts (UGGGGGHHH), sweat stains showing under armpits, women who don't look like they've even combed their hair all week. I'm no raving beauty by any means, but I've figured out which colors and styles look best on me, and it definitely gives me more confidence. And yes, I do feel different if I go out in dress pants, a V-neck blouse, and real shoes as opposed to sweatshirt, jeans, and sneakers. And I would NEVER go out in public in pajama bottoms as I've seen some people do. As for men wanting their women to be proud to be seen with them, I only wish that were true of most men. Time and again I've seen sensibly dressed woman with a man who looks like he literally just fell out of bed. To me, dressing well in the sense I mean implies that you do have some clue about how other people perceive you, and that you have enough consideration of other people to care. If you think you and everything you do are golden and/or everyone else is a devil-worshipping pig, then I guess it wouldn't matter. |

But, it doesn't mean I ever look average. Bravalady I have to agree with Krupa on this. I think some people are misunderstanding what "dressing well" means.

I know when I put some effort into my outfits my confidence shoots up. It feels good. |

No people who dress to good look like they dont want to get dirty. That goes hand and hand with lazy
Well, I agree that the whole point of being highly organized is it affords one the opportunity to be lazy. That's why I'm organized. So I don't have to waste time looking for things. That's also why I prefer living in a small space. If anything does get on my clothes, I usually try to clean it up ASAP, or change into something clean. I can't imagine going through the day with a stain on my shirt. But, the real reason I dress up is because I like doing it. I like passing by a mirror and checking myself out. I like it when an attractive young lady smiles at me. It makes me feel good inside when a teenage girl at the fast food restaurant blushes and laughs nervously. When it's obvious she wants me. When she chases me. When she's stumbling over herself to please me. When she looks up at me like a little puppy, hungry for affection. God, I love it! |
