Let’s be honest, one of the first things a person sees when they look at you is what you wear, which is why it is so easy to judge a person by what they wear. The two most common ways people dress are : i) To Impress. ii) To Express. Dressing to impress in this context means wearing things in such a way to please other people; maybe because because an invisible law says you should.
