How To Dress For Success

Imagine not having to wait in lines. Imagine getting the best seats in a restaurant. Imagine being treated with respect everywhere you go.

The way you dress can give you all this and more. Everytime you meet someone new, they will judge you within 4 seconds. Do you want to be seen as a loser or a winner?

In fact, dressing for success can save your life! I know that sounds like a bold statement but let me explain. One day I was on a business trip flying to Europe. I was dressed in a very nice suit and sporting a rolex watch and a gold ring. I looked the picture of success. As I was exiting the plane the stewardess said to me, "You look so nice that if the plane was to crash and I could save only one person, I would have saved you". Wow, I had never thought that dressing for success could save my life.

To properly dress, a man should wear a BLACK suit. On top of that you will also need a shirt and tie. By using the proper color combinations you can increase your percieved value.

If you were going to appear in the media, a blue shirt is the proper color to wear.
White is a good choice for a balanced and professional look. Red is the color of passion and would make a good choice if your were on a first date with a woman you were interested in. Pink and Yellow are top choices for when you wish to display power.

Women should wear black slacks and a white blouse that buttons up the front with a Mandarin collar.

In fact, my wife and I went to the Louis Vuitton store the other day to buy a handbag. We were both dressed very casually in shorts and t-shirts. It took us ober 20 minutes before a salesperson offered to help us. In the meantime, folks in suits who arrived after us were helped right away.

Here is an experiment the next time you go out to a restaurant. While everyone else wears jeans or shorts, show up in your suit. I'm willing to bet you'll get better service from the valet to the hostess to the waiter.
