You simply get one opportunity for a first impression. Coming across as sloppy and ditzy will give people the impression that you aren't as smart as you truly are. Keep reading for tips to seem sharp.
1
Take several days or weeks to look at yourself and the way you present yourself to others. You know your pals as you but how are you currently seen by your boss, your teachers or strangers on the road? Look at your appearance and also your mental take on things.
Take a digital photo of yourself every day in your different outfits.

Evaluate your clothes. Start adding smart looking pieces to your wardrobe.
Looking smart requires emphasizing quality over quantity and selecting a few top quality key pieces, such includes a great jacket and pants set. Pants and jeans: Look for pants which are tailored and fit you well long, in the waist and in overall fit. They could be stylish and trendy. Provided that they can fit you appear that you took time in putting the outfit together. Choose jeans that suit appropriately. If they're really long you need to wear heels (ladies) or ask them to altered. No body looks smart in hugely over sized jeans that drag the ground. You look as you found a couple of pants and didn't care should they fit.
For the guys, non-baggy corduroys or khakis are good, and in the summertime, khaki shorts.
Tops: T-shirts are fine but avoid controversial or rude graphics. Avoid grossly over sized shirts. Begin looking for shirts with social messages, vintage rock bands and smart comments.
Make sure the shirts are within your interest. You never want someone to ask about your message and you not know what it means. It's fine to wear your chosen band shirts but dress them up with a blazer which means you transform it into your look and not appear as if you've emerged from the Hot Topic yard sale. You can keep lots of your present wardrobe, just polish up another elements.
Don't wear t-shirts all the time and should you choose you need to top it with a blazer, and accessorize with a belt and appropriate shoes.

Wear dress shirts sometimes to combine it up. Buy shirts which are cut to match your body type. Search for lengths which are appropriate, not too short and not too long. Plan ahead and don't go reaching into the trunk of your closet for your old styles once the seasons change.
Girls and ladies should try to find pieces that appear tailored and flatter their good features. Don't hide under bulky sweaters and sweatshirts but try to find tailored looking pieces. Get a combination of short and long sleeve. If the fit is good you can mix it up with fun colors and trendy prints.
Guys should wear appropriately sized shirts. Add variety by choosing fun colors. If the fit is good you can really mix it up with fun colors and trendy prints.

Dress athletically only once in use. Men and women should avoid wearing athletic attire and shoes until you are actually doing something athletic. This doesn't mean use it because you will end up carrying it out later in the day, this means until you are actually at the gym, running laps or in PE you'll need to keep your athletic wear in a bag. This includes your chosen player jersey.
5
Wear shoes which are undamaged (free of deep scuffs and wear), that suit well and that can be polished (unless suede). You will get some well made shoes with fun colors that enhance your look and make you look polished while still maintaining your personality
Men should invest in a few pairs of shoes both in black and brown. Again, try to find shoes that can be polished and aren't worn out.
