A Modern Grownups Guide to Dressing by kaitlin schafer
Work is deἀned as an activity in which one exerts strength or faculties to do or perform something. If we go by what work is deἀned as, work can be almost anything. If you look around you right now, there is probably somebody working. Each person wears something different when they work, because not all work environments are the same. As I work right now, I’m wearing jeans and tee shirt while others around me are dressed to impress, next to the sweats and hoddie crowd. Each look has its place in the work world, and depending on where you are and what you are doing, you could be in any of the categories. A large amount of our population wears a suit and tie every day. There could be a variety of reasons for this, but most likely it’s because it’s what they are required to wear. This dress code is enforced because it helps the company have a professional image. The idea of dressing up starts when we are young. As a young person, you dress up to look more adult. When you reach adulthood, you dress up to look distinguished. Looking distinguished gives you an air of conἀdence
When you wear jeans and tee-shirts, it’s a different feeling. Instead of feeling distinguished, you are comfortable, and are able to do work that requires you get a little dirty. Everything from yard work, to school work is done in this type of clothing. Feeling comfortable allows your thoughts to flow more freely. When your thoughts are free you are more productive. You have yet another feeling when you are part of the sweats and hoodie crowd. It pushes the limits of comfortable and verges on lazy. When you wear this look, you aren’t going to impress anybody, but it if helps you create then it works. Sometimes wearing something really comfy can backἀre on you; because it doesn’t feel like work wear. The trick is ἀnding something to motivate you while being comfortable.
