Advice

   One of the best pieces of advice I was ever given was to make sure to always go out in public looking presentable. You never know when the love of your life, a job opportunity, or a new friend is going to go by. I'm not saying you need to wear a suit everyday, but it does help if you do something with your scruff on your neck, and don't go out in pajamas or sweatpants all the time. People take notice of this stuff. More than you might think.
   Does someone think you're irresponsible? Dress up a little more than usual every time you see them and don't make a big deal out of it. Don't even bring it up if they don't say anything about it.
   This also helps with self-confidence. I'm sure you've noticed that when you're walking around in a suit, you feel more confident and you aren't afraid to do things that you normally wouldn't. Maybe that includes talking to a girl, or confronting a coworker or boss about something.
   Have you ever noticed how awesome Barney Stinson feels in a suit? He has 100% confidence that every girl he talks to will be interested in him. Obviously that isn't true, but his suit allows him to retain his confidence after being shot down and continue to his next target. Looking good leads to feeling good. I can promise that.


Look good, smell good, act good.

    I agree, suits do go a long way when it comes to boosting confidence. Cause you can feel like crap, but knowing that you look boss, is always reassuring.

    I feel like a bit of a loser when/if I have to walk the streets wearing a suit. But then, I am 18 years old and don't live in a very nice part of London lol.

    i just dress how i want and dont really care what people say. in that: you find confidence.

    oh, and with fuzzy slippers, you get the benefits of "awesome through randomness"

    I love wearing suits, but i cannot imagine doing it on a daily basis... too warm, not comfortable enough, plus, my colleagues would shun me :)

    I agree with you on the psychological effects of wearing a suit. It most definitely can boost one's self-confidence when dressed presentably and that can make all the difference.
