#26: Dressed for Success

Wearing business attire can definitely change people’s perceptions of you. Studies have shown that the clothes you wear can impact the way others view you and how you view yourself. For example, one study found that when participants wore formal clothing, they felt more powerful and confident and were more likely to make assertive decisions. 

On the other hand, when they wore casual clothing, they felt more relaxed and less concerned with making a strong impression. These findings demonstrate that the clothes we wear can have a significant impact on our psychology and behavior. So, it’s no surprise that putting on a suit or a nice dress can make people take you more seriously!
