This post is centered on ladies. I'd be dropping the one for men (PART 2) in my next post.

WHAT IS STYLE?
Style is the unique and personal way an individual presents themselves through their clothing and accessories, body language and posture, attitude and personality, etc.
DO I REALLY NEED TO DRESS WELL?
Many atimes I come across people asking questions like: Do I need to dress well?, Is it compulsory I wear this on that?, Do you think people are looking and taking notes of my dress?, Don't you think people will respect me irrespective of what I wear?.
Well, to answer these questions, a saying goes thus "Dress the way you want to be addressed". So, yes, you need to dress well. Once you approach people or probably someone like me, the first thing I look at is the way you're dressed. You can't dress shabbily and approach an individual to share a business idea or market a product, you'll definitely be seen as an unserious person even without uttering a word.
