"Do you want to find that dream job after graduation?" Break the ice at social gatherings? To be more memorable and more famous? You certainly can - through a variety of tools. How you behave, the way you interact and of course, through what you wear, ”writes Wendy L. Patrick, in an article for Psychology Today. Wendy is a lawyer, behavioral analyst, author of "Red Flag" and co-author of "Reading People". Here is what people notice about you according to her:
The visible is unforgettable
In court, which has been my "office" for 25 years, I am constantly reminded by lawyers what they notice and remember about the colorful characters who walk through a courtroom, including lawyers and witnesses. "Yes, thankfully they also remember what people said - but they definitely remember what they were wearing," she says.
"Keep in mind to wear something special in style, color and you have to be a little careful, depending on the type of meeting and the impression you want to leave. You want a job interview to focus more on skills than clothing. A first date, on the other hand, may require more focus on attractive appearance. ”
Dress for success: The simpler, the better
According to wendy L. Patrick, “when you are in a job interview, you need to show off your skills, not your closet, your talent, not your tailor. If you are not applying for a job in the fashion industry, do not stay longer than you should in the wardrobe. "Research reveals what matters most about a job interview, including how candidates feel about themselves."
She points out that when it comes to colors, black is the most preferred.
Social network and visible style
In the social scene, according to Patrick, style steals attention. So are the colors. Coupled with an attractive personality, fashion can be an unforgettable way to stand out from the crowd. But there is also the element of elegance. Some people are sometimes distinguished for the fact that they are not fashionable, but are noticed for elegant and individual style.
Among other things, it connects the wardrobe with well-being. "The appearance of a special wardrobe can affect well-being, especially if it stems from a personal sense of uniqueness. In a study entitled 'Feeling special, feeling happy' he found a personal feeling that was positively related to authentic living, which is related to happiness.
