Dress to Impress: When You Look Good, You Feel Good

“Dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” We’ve all heard that before, but have we ever stopped to think about why that is the case? Also, read our MTailor review below and save 20% on MTailor here use code: ja00gflpda

How you dress matters

Surprisingly enough, many reasons dressing better can lead to more productive and effective people. When we hear the quote above, we probably automatically think about how others view us.

When we dress nicer than we are required to, people see us as important people who demand respect. While that might be true, dressing up has a major impact on our view of ourselves, too!

Dress for Confidence

One of the most critical factors that can impact our self-confidence is dressing well. When we dress well, going beyond what is required and setting ourselves apart, we tell others that we are worth extra attention.

At the same time, we reinforce to ourselves that we are capable, competent, and important people who deserve respect and admiration. Even when tough situations frustrate us, every time we see ourselves in the mirror, we are reminded that we’re valuable, which increases our confidence.

MTailor Review When You Look Good, You Feel GoodFor example, knowing that every piece of clothing you wear matches ideally can be the confidence boost you need to ace that interview!

Dress for Follow-Through

We all have dreams and aspirations that we hope to achieve. When we wake up, we might have the best of intentions of completing a specific task or acting a certain way.

Throughout the day, though, any number of things can get in our way and stop us. Being dressed well can be the shot in the arm to motivate you to follow through with what you planned to do. Ask yourself, “Am I doing what someone dressed like me should be doing?”

Dress for Self-Respect

Some days, when we feel down on ourselves, the last thing we want to do is get dressed up. For some people, though, just the act of getting dressed well is enough to lift them out of their funk.

It is hard to put any effort into making someone look good if you don’t respect them, especially when it comes to ourselves. As you’re getting yourself dressed, you can remind yourself of the value that you have and your own self-worth. As the day goes on, it can be easy to remind yourself of the respect you deserve by seeing and feeling how well dressed you are.

For example, dress exceptionally well when you don’t feel like you deserve a promotion. If your boss is going to think that you deserve respect, you have to show that you believe it, too!

But what if you don’t know what to buy or hate shopping? We understand. We recently partnered with MTailor to customize our wardrobe with tailored clothes. Check out our MTailor review.

MTailor Review

MTailor makes getting great-looking and perfect clothes a breeze. Once you download the app (go to MTailor.com, enter your phone number to get a text to download the app), the easy-to-use platform walks you through getting measured. The selection they offer is fantastic. They have a massive selection of shirts, tees, jeans, and suits.

First things first, you need to get measured. The user-friendly app walks you through how to get your custom measurements. It’s as easy as setting up your phone and spinning around. Okay, there’s more than that, but it takes 17 measurements in 15 seconds. And you can always go back and take new measurements if you drop a few pounds.

If you’re worried about your data, the app deletes the video it takes of you after the system calculates your measurements.

After that, the fun begins. You dive in and pick out your wardrobe from a huge selection of customizable options. For instance, your shirts can be customized in terms of collar, length, cufflinks, button color, monogram, etc. You get exactly what you want.

After you’ve done the work and ordered the clothes, the skilled workers at MTailor take over, creating your custom garments. It takes a few weeks, but you know it’s right when you get it.

We were floored by the fit of our jeans, which just became our new favorite pair. The shirt and tee fit perfectly and will impress at our next meeting.

But if you’re worried they might not fit, don’t fear. MTailor offers free remakes if they’re not what you expected, and they ship for FREE! Yes, we are huge fans.

Run a 5K: Change your routine up

Working out or exercising doesn’t have to always take place in your local gym or even in your own home for that matter! Some of the most fun and rewarding experiences are when you join friends and do something outside!

For instance, this past weekend we participated in The Color Vibe 5K. Now trust me, I am not a runner. I hate to run and I hardly (if ever) do it. I realize that it is good cardiovascular conditioning but I would rather get my conditioning from things such as circuit classes! But I ran it anyways!
