Good professional attire gives you a psychological edge. I think it actually makes you behave differently. Better posture, for example. It puts you in a better frame of mind to work, sell, be energetic, social, etc.

I’m with you. I would love to see society dress nicer in every venue. I really think it affects behavior in a positive way. Of course, we’re far gone in the other direction.

I do, too. Claims that cost prevents anyone from looking tidy and dignified are bogus. My skirt cost $9, my blouse $3, and my snazzy blue glass earrings would have been $6 if the designer (one of my church friends) hadn't insisted on giving them to me.

I agree. One of my pet peeves, which some will disagree with, is that people don’t dress up for church anymore.

Yes, I’m happy to see people go to church. But we’re talking tennis shorts, baggy pants which are so low cut you can see the great divide when they bend over, torn t shirts.

Schools have no real dress codes anymore either. Perhaps it’s just generational, but this has bugged me a lot, that church is no longer a dressy place.
