“Style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.”
Rachel Zoe
(American fashion designer, businesswoman and writer)
Let your outfit speak for you and make a good impression. This also comes back to making a good first impression. When you walk into a room looking good and feeling good, people notice you and remember you. Walk into a room with confidence. Greet people with a firm handshake and a warm smile.
By dressing well and speaking well, we signal to others that we are worthy of engaging.
I spent time learning how to dress well for the office environment and also spent time in the evenings reading up on topics that interested me. This gave me an edge, made me worthy of contributing to discussions and ideas. Try it yourself. You will often get asked what you do or what you are interested in. Speaking knowledgeably and with passion (no matter what the topic) is inspiring to others. Even if the topic is new to them, you can keep them engaged.
