GOOD DRESSING, THEIR ADVANTAGE, DISADVANTAGE AND APPLICATIONS
Man had excel in almost every facet of life known to him, 21st century is awarded the best phase of human existence where all idea that had ever crossed the heart of man had been put to practice and have witnessed tremendous physical manifestation. Man have in recent time explored, unraveled and are still into the business of unraveling the endless possibilities available to him. With the availability of high tech fashions, clothing, facial make-ups, creams, perfumes, braids and beauticians, the man on the street looks handsome and the woman the more beautiful. You rarely see an ugly face these days. Everyone seems to understand the underlying principle of beauty and as such ensure he appears appealing to both himself and others. Since man judge his fellow man based on physical appearance, smartly dressed people are often overrated. They are crowned with diverse good qualities they truly never possess. And the mind tend to place a high standard on smartly dressed individual making us address them with special attention and with respect they are ordinarily never qualified for. We assume them to be smart and intelligent even when they amount to nothing in the real sense. Few are aware or have used the technique called “the psychology of good dressing/appearance” to achieve tremendous positive result while others have used same to perpetuate deceit and victimize the vulnerable. The proper applications of the “Psychology of good dressing” is most likely more rewarding than not. The psychology of good dressing had brought people of like minds together, create connections, produce rewarding relationship while experts have used it to market them self to well connected individual and like a magic uplift themselves to their safe haven. Following are practical techniques applicable to dressing, I enjoin you to appropriate utilize the technique to serve your purpose right. Know what you desire to achieve through its rightful application and picture the end product you desire to achieve even before you begin.
1. If you religiously practice good dressing habit, people get attracted to you easily and even at first sight. Good dressing makes you lovable, it magnify your personality. Without advertising yourself and like a magnet, you draw a lot of attention to yourself. You get recognized by many and people will easily give you audience.

Reversal
You need a good sense of humor to keep the people you have attracted by your dressing habit. Although you don’t necessarily need to be a comedian. Just be simple, easy going and polite. Have something to give away to the people you attract to yourself. Tell them good stories they can learn lesson from, teach them whatever skills you already know, help them to grow. Let there be something good to be learned or taken away from you else, you will create a one day connection where they know you today, see nothing of value in you order than good dressing making them to dissert you the following day.

2. You gain trust easily from people. Since good dressing is synonymous to being wealthy, intelligent and successful, good dressing forms around you a powerful aura for trust, it delude the mind of your viewers and gives them a deceptive impression about you that might not necessarily be true of you, hence, the wealthy will want to associate with you for mutual gain and so also the poor. This now gives you the opportunity and privilege to coax them to your advantage to get connected, helping you create more powerful relationships and contact.
Reversal
Good dressing sense without “self standard” and lack of education can be detrimental to your image as you will only reveal your insecurities to the world. So while putting this lesson to practice, you must first know what is it you want to achieve. Practicing good dressing sense to get connected?, you must have your educational qualifications and CV ready in case you make a big catch and get connected to people you can coax to get a wonderful and juicy white collar job. While you practice good dressing, be ready to stumble upon varieties of opportunity. So therefore be experienced in a skill, learn a trade, or be marketable and usable in the working environment. Else, your failure to create a standard for yourself that people can feel when they come in contact with you, then you dressing effort may not yield you any desired result. Know what you want.

3. For guys who love to flirt, good dressing habit is an easy but powerful means of seducing the woman of your choice. Who doesn’t like a neat and well dressed young man? Ladies are attracted to a well dressed and composed man. Since appearance is what we first judge before other things in a person, good dressing attracts to you a lot of secret admirers in the female world; you will ne marvel if you get to know how plenty they are that admire and want you. it elevates your standard in the eyes of the ladies and gives you courage. The courage you never posses in the first instance on your own. Lol…. When you are well dressed and stand to talk to a woman you feel more confident and there is this good rapoo between the heart and the mouth. You see the heart gushing out beautiful flows to the mouth and the mouth saying them out with grace and confidence. Even when what you are telling her is not necessarily the truth.

Reversal
Some ladies can be intimidated as they may regard you as being too classic for their liking. All they see will be the difference in class between you and her. She may think you only want to use her and dump her due to the variance in level. “Remember, your good sense of dressing is what gives you level”. Therefore in certain instances, good dressing turns women away.

4. For ladies: good dressing plays a significant role in keeping married people sexually and physically attracted to each other. Since men love change, it is important that women appear at their best as much as they can for their husband. The same applies to single ladies. Looking good places you above your competitors. You owe it to yourself to catapult yourself and attract the best man you can by our decent and powerful dressing sense.
Reversal
Some men lack guts or nerves to approach powerful dressed ladies. Single ladies who appear gorgeous may loss the opportunity to get suitor. Reasons because men may assume maintaining her outlook and providing for her may cost them fortune and as such may go for moderate clean ladies. Never get discouraged. Just put on a smiling face, be polite and approachable. For the married ladies, good dressing is the best thing you can do to keep your husband’s attention to yourself

5. To attract beautiful people, you must be beautiful. To attract powerful people, you must be powerful. To attract smart people, you must be smart, to attract influential people, you must be influential and to attract intelligent people, you must be intelligent. Maintain good dressing habit and you attract everything

Reversal
It requires a lot of courage, charisma and a powerful sense of self worth
Detriment
1. It can create lust
2. The whole idea of good dressing may appear too worldly to religious people
3. Just like business, it demand a lot of money since you need to keep your dressing updated with current trends until you are achieve that which you set out for
