I am sure all of us have often come across this phrase in our life, haven't we? According to my interpretation, when anybody says "DRESS TO IMPRESS" it means dressing in a certain way to impress others or as the situation demands. It could also mean looking fashionable in order to impress OTHERS. The obvious scenarios spring to mind such as going for an interview, important business meeting or on a date. These are all occasions that dressing to impress would hopefully pay dividends but do you consistently have to 'dress to impress' for there to be any long lasting impact? Do we really need to keep this phrase in mind every time while going out or attending some party or doing anything? Can we not dress the way we would like to?
Generally people associate well- dressed with being successful. This implies that only well dressed people can achieve success others could not. That is not how it should work. Most of us have their own sense of styling and a perspective which is different from one another. The way i style myself is definitely going to be different from what you would like to see. Fashion and styling are things which cannot remain same for two people. It is different and will always be.


You can never force anybody to like whatever you like. Supposedly, in order to impress others, you dress in a way which you don't even like. It makes you feel uncomfortable and unconfident then how will that bring out the best in you as you are already nervous. So trust me, this is going to be the worst situation for anybody to be in. When you are not impressed by yourself then HOW ON EARTH are you going to impress people around you.

Dress to impress YOURSELF ! If there is anything that i have learned over the years is to dress to impress yourself first. One should always wear whatever makes he/she happy and feel fabulous. You wear clothes that YOU like not what someone will like or would want you to wear. Some girls (even guys) will dress in a way to please others, especially their boyfriends and forget what they like to wear. It does not feel good because you don't feel like yourself and on top of that, you are missing out on trending styles. Dressing for others does not satisfy you.
In the moment making the decision to dress to impress seems important but once an event is

over, it is unlikely that anybody will remember what you wore. On the other hand, you might remember it well through sore feet and rashes from wearing a certain style which you hated the most to get a specific look. Trust me, you will never be satisfied if you always dress to impress others around you. By dressing according to ones desire and choice helps to boost confidence and people are certainly going

to pay all of their attention to you .
DO WHAT YOU LOVE
For me, the phrase has been changed to DRESS TO IMPRESS YOURSELF because choosing what you like does no harm to anybody. It does not even matter what people will say as long as you like the way you dress. I guarantee that you will feel much better about yourself and the level of confidence that is required in today's society just by being yourself!
