The reason why some people don’t buy good clothes to make them look good is because they feel it might make people percieve them as rich, which they don’t want.

However, they fail to put certain things into consideration which makes it really necessary to have good clothes.


Imagine you are walking in a not too familiar neighborhood and you come across an old friend. Definitely, he or she would size you up to see if you’ve been fairing well and better than the last time you both met.

If you look well dressed, the person will definitely believe all is well with you. But if the opposite is the case, then you might likely be perceived as someone suffering or struggling, which is a circle you won’t want to be in.

Another instance is when you suddenly come across someone you have a crush on, whom you must approach.

It will be a lot to your advantage if you are well dressed at the moment. The way you are dressed will say a lot about you.

It might even be part of the reason why you will be granted audience by the crush. But when you are poorly dressed, that might serve as a dent on your self-esteem.

Imagine showing up for a job interview and you are dressed like someone who is the manager of another company, that impression will make interviewers hold you in high-esteem and never price you cheap


Dressing well doesn’t mean one has to go beyond one’s financial capability. There are still nice clothes which are within what one can afford. Avoiding such materials is almost the same as subjecting yourself to a life without goodies.
