Dockers Dress
Men and women too. Roughly how many of each item should you buy new per year to be considered well dressed?

Shirts: button down, polo, dress.
Pants: Jeans, casual(dockers), dress pants
shoes: athletic, casual, dress

and should you buy with an outfit in mind? This may sound weird but I actually have never done that before.

Im sorry Guhjeeh YA is making me gay. I was telling my friend about how he could change his hairstyle today and commented on his clothes he looked at me like I was from mars.lol

Get at least 8 of each of the following:
tee-shirts (white or colored, some with things on them, some plain), pairs of socks, and underpants.
Get at least 4 each of button down shirts, polo shirts, and get one or two 'dress' shirts.
Pants: get 2 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of 'casual' and 3 pairs of 'dress' (or work) pants.
Shoes: get one or two pair of athletic shoes, one pair of casual shoes, and one pair of dress (work) shoes.
If you work where you must wear a suit or jacket and slacks, get two of each top and slacks. Also get at least 5 ties.
You'll also need a good coat, at least a 'car coat' length plus a shorter jacket and a longer 'formal' coat in wool or 'twill' ...

Picture this: You are tasked with interviewing candidates for work in a food manufacturing facility. The job requires maintaining high sanitation standards, meaning that hairnets and beard restraints, coupled with long sleeve shirts and long pants must be worn in a wet, hot, work environment. The first job candidate for you to interview walks through the door wearing a gold chain, cut-off shorts and sandals. He is not wearing a shirt, and is sporting a mane of un-combed shoulder length hair. On the strength of the information alone in this true story, should he get the job?

You're Selling Yourself

When preparing for a job interview, whether with one person or an entire team of people, it is important to remember you are representing a salable product: YOU. The way in which you walk, speak and appear makes an impression.

Much has been said about the importance of personal appearance by job candidates when going to job interviews, yet examples abound every day of people getting it wrong. Here are a few things to remember when heading out the door to that hard-won interview.

I used to know managers who said they decided on a job candidate at the handshake. Studies show this is quite common. In that brief moment, it is not what you say that may matter most to them, but what your appearance says about you.

Tips:

Candidates interviewing with organizations having casual work environments are especially prone to error in knowing how to dress. Because all not casual clothing is suitable for every work environment, you must determine what is appropriate to wear to the interview. Clothing that works well for the beach, yard work, dance club, exercise session, and sporting event may not be appropriate for a professional appearance at work.

Clothing that reveals too much cleavage, back, chest, feet, stomach or underwear is not appropriate for most places of business, even in business casual settings. Additionally, clothing should be pressed and never wrinkled, and is generally unacceptable if torn, dirty, or frayed. Clothing having words or pictures that may be offensive is unacceptable, but clothing with fashion brand names conservatively displayed (e.g., Dockers, Izod, etc.), is usually okay.

Proper dress for an interview in a business casual environment does not necessarily mean wearing a suit and tie. Even if the interviewer is sitting there in a t-shirt and jeans with big holes in the knees, it is best practice for you to present a clean, neat appearance, and be dressed to a higher standard than the workplace/job requires. Candidates are never down-rated for dressing too well, but frequently are for not looking the part.

Make a Good Impression

Please remember to take a good look at yourself through the eyes of an interviewer before going to that interview, take steps to dress appropriately, and work hard at closing the "sale." Oh, what happened with the candidate mentioned at the beginning of this article? He was not considered a good job fit and did not get the job.
