Who do we believe?

As I wrote earlier (Why am I dressed like that), we read the basic information instantly. How does this happen? Why do some people immediately inspire sympathy and trust, while others do the opposite, and we subconsciously feel that we are being led by the nose and even if the person , says really sensible things, we still can’t trust him completely.

First of all, this is, of course, the correspondence of the image to your inner appearance. For example: a tough, strong-willed woman with large facial features begins to dress up in pastel lace and ruffles that are unusual for her. She thinks that these same ruffles will give her more femininity. What is the result? The contrast of the strength of her image runs counter to the naivety and tenderness of the romantic style, so she, on the contrary, seems more tough and masculine. And this dissonance causes us to reject or mistrust.

Or a businessman, for example, comes to a meeting with partners in jeans, a washed T-shirt and sneakers. Yes, of course, if you are a businessman of the level of Steve Jobs (Apple) or Sergey Brin (Google), then even in shorts, your name already has such power that no additional tools are needed.



But let’s also not forget that neither Steve nor Sergei were initially businessmen. They were Creators, and this is a completely different direction. Let's take politics for example. Here he is, shouting from the podium that he will restore order in the country, and he himself is standing in a wrinkled suit and through an unbuttoned button on his shirt, we see his thick, hairy belly. Will we trust such a politician? Hardly. If he can’t even put his appearance in order, then what kind of order are we talking about in the country?



So, the first rule of trust:

- Be true to who you are.

To do this: figure out your stylistic direction. There are a lot of resources on the Internet that will help you with this. If you need advice, you can make an appointment with a good image maker. Believe me, the knowledge gained will more than pay for the money spent, and besides, it will last a lifetime. Because not understanding your image can have negative consequences. Men (if there is a request for an acquaintance) will instinctively either not believe it, or mistake it for someone else, and then be disappointed (I was looking for a naive girl - I found a tough woman, I was looking for a career woman - I found a housewife, I was looking for a future mother - I found a club girl). Therefore, don't try to be someone you are not. For everyone there is a someone. Someone is looking for a woman who has balls and she can also be soft, vulnerable in her image, without resorting to lace and ruffles, in which she looks ridiculous.

Third rule of trust:

- Understand where you came.

This is where we have a real problem. Well, you shouldn’t come to a children’s party in a dress with a neckline down to the navel. Well, don't! It’s better to wear the same dress to an evening event with your man. A lonely girl shouldn't wear it to go to a nightclub. Why? Because it looks pretty desperate. This is more like a last resort, a counter-offensive, and men feel and understand this very well. A business meeting is not the place for ripped jeans, nor is a romantic date, and so on, the list goes on and on.

Of course, we don’t owe anyone anything and we can dress however we want. But if we want to manage the impression we make on others, it is better to dress consciously.


Harmony in the image to everyone ♥
