How a Good Suit Can Boost Your Image
The way you look has a major influence on two very important things: how you feel about yourself, and how other people perceive you. The clothes you wear are a major factor in your overall appearance, and the impression you create. Getting respect from other people in many cases is a single throw of the dice, you don't get a second chance to make a good impression. The only other way you can do it is if you actually earn their respect, which takes some kind of extreme effort or a long time, and often the opportunity is never presented. Therefore dressing well and taking care of your appearance is the best way to ensure that other people view and treat you as you feel you deserve to be. A good suit is an essential item for every man to own, and ideally it is better to have as many as you can afford to buy (within a realistic limit of course). When buying a suit, you don't want to choose just anything. Your suit choice should be strategic. The main factor you will need to consider is when, where, and how often you will be wearing your suit. It is a good idea to have suits that are intended for day-to-day wear (for example, to wear to work), a suit for special occasions, a suit you keep aside for important meetings, and a suit for evening wear. Having the correct suit for the correct application is a major step forward in ensuring you always look your best. Climate is an important consideration too. If you live in New York City, your needs will be quite a bit different compared to somebody who lives in California, and the difference between winter and summer will be more distinct. You would also need more accessories and different accessories. Even within a single state there can be great differences. For example, if you live in San Diego or Los Angeles, jackets should be made from light, soft material and be lighter in color, while those in more northern Californian cities such as San Francisco or Sacramento would need heavier and darker fabrics. You also must never buy suits "off the rack". Only a custom tailored suit will be good enough to make a strong impression. Interestingly, custom tailored suits are always better value and often less expensive than rack suits because you are not paying extra for a brand name. Cheap rack suits are the worst of the worst, because they nearly always look terrible and are not made well. Choose your tailor with equal care. A good tailor will make a world of difference. One highly recommended tailoring company is Studio Suits, which has already earned a great reputation for providing outstanding value and service. Make sure to take your time and discuss carefully all your needs with the tailor, so you will get the most appropriate advice and assistance with making the correct choices.
