Dress for success: snag the professional look with McJim classic leather

Dressing for success has never been given more significance in the corporate world than now when intense competition in the workforce compels you to be not just good at what you do but to look the part, too. In fact, a person who dresses sharply gets a powerful confidence boost and he is then perceived by his workmates and superiors as someone capable of getting the job done.

McJim is well too aware of this and pitches a few surefire tips for men who want to make the cut in the professional world:

• Look beyond denim. Eschew your favorite pair of jeans for well-cut classic trousers or slacks. This will give you a sleek professional look while ensuring comfort even on a long day at the office.

• Lose the t-shirts. Wearing t-shirts, sweat shirts, and hoodies at work and corporate events is a big no-no. If the office dress code is business attire or smart casual, a plain-hued short- or long-sleeved polo or one with subtle prints is a fine option.
