DRESSING PROFESSIONALLY

WHILE the person in jeans may be as competent and as intelligent as the one wearing the formal suit appearances are bound to influence the assessment of attribute. All the ingredient- knowledge, preparation, and appearance- are necessary to make a good impression. When you work at home or in an office where casual attire is the norm, its difficult to get of that role and into the role of the professional in front of the audience or in front of a television camera. But, if you want to make a good impression, its worth the effort.

Here’s what you need to do.
If you must buy a suit for the few occasions you have to make a public appearance, buy something classic. After all, if you’re only going to wear the suit a few of times a year, you wouldn’t want it to go out of style too quickly. You can probably get away with a nice skirt and jacket. A trouser suit is also s good idea.
If you’re going to be in front of the camera, some special rules apply. Wear neutral colures like dark blue or grey. Don’t wear large or glitzy jewelers, and wear a button down shirt or a jacket so there will be a place to clip a microphone.
