What I wear today is very different from what I used to wear. What really changed my style was when I started working at Nordstrom’s. That got me into fashion and really influenced what I wore. I was able to see and try a lot of clothes and see which styles I like and didn’t like. What also changed my style was the people that I met when I was working there. One  of my coworkers had an awesome style and I really liked it a lot. I started talking to him and asking questions about brands and where he was buying his clothes from. That guy is the reason why I got into high end streetwear and introduced me to my favorite store in Portland. Another way I pick clothes is by watching what people wear. I really enjoy watching all the Chinese students at our school because most of them are really into fashion. If I see someone wearing a piece that catches my attention, I will go research it and find more information about it. The last way is by Instagram. I follow my favorite store and different fashion people, so i can see more clothes and accessories. The only belief I have with the way I dress is that I want to look everyday. So I never wear athletic clothes unless Im going to be working out. I wear the clothes that I believe are nice and make me present who I am when people see me. Some of the brands you will see me wearing are Hugo Boss, hood by air, represent clothing, and adyn. I didn’t get any beliefs from my family about what I wear. My dad usually is wearing athletic stuff when he’s not working and my mom dresses a lot nicer. The only thing they strongly believe in is me having no tattoos and piercings. As of right now I don’t have any tattoos or piercings on my body and that will probably stay like that for the rest of my life. I’m not a huge fan of piercings and not interested in a tattoo right now. My friends that I hang out with all dress deferent. Some wear mainly athletic clothes and others are into fashion and dress similar to me. I have friends with tattoos and piercings and some that don’t. Their parents were like mine where they don’t like tattoos or piercings. To conclude, I wear clothes that I like and that present me in a good way to people. I dress nicely every time I go out because I never know who I could meet and I like looking good.

1. Streetwear-What I see is a person that knows fashion and Is up to date and following the current trends. He is wearing a lot of high end clothes and accessories. I see nice sneakers, fitted jeans, nice shirt, and nice backpack.

2. Suit-What I see is a person that is dressed up in suit. He is most likely going to be giving a presentation today. He is wearing brown shoes, a navy suit, and white dress shirt, and a blue tie.

3. Sport clothes-What I see is a person that wearing Nike athletic clothes. I believe he doesn’t care about what he’s wearing. He is wearing Nike shoes, half calf socks, shorts, sweatshirt and snapback.

Think it really matters how you dress? If you’re a good person overall, shouldn’t people realize it and not judge you based on your threads? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but people judge you based on the clothes you wear. I don’t care if you’re walking down the street or sitting in a business meeting; people are constantly looking at what you’re wearing. When I see people wearing high end streetwear clothing, I assume that they are pretty well off or at least their family is. The only people I usually see wearing these clothes are the Chinese students that go to this school. As most of them are pretty well off and are more fashion forward than Americans. When I see people wearing a suit, I usually associate them with being successful or more well off. But, here at school as a business student, a lot of people have to dress up for presentations. So I am able to observe a lot of different looks people wear. For me it comes down to how the suit looks, By working at Nordstrom and having experience selling suits, pants, shoes, dress shirts, and ties, I can usually tell what is a nice quality outfit or not. When I see people wearing sport clothes, I normally think that they have no fashion sense and don’t care about what they wear. But, I know some people are doing physical activities or just want to be comfortable when they come to class. But, I believe that you should always dress to impress. You never know who you could possibly meet each day and I can guarantee that they will be judging you by what your wearing on the initial meet. What this tells me about my beliefs is that I care about how I dress and present myself. I always want to look my best because I never know who I will run into and possibly meet. I always want to make a good impression on people.
