comes to your choice of what to wear and how to wear it. Let’s briefly revisit these:

Baptisms, Religious Functions, First Dates, Dating, and Casual Outings.

MODES AND MOODS
Modes and Moods both influence our self-image and the clothing best suited for various
professional and social circumstances. As we covered in training, consider the
following as you use StyleSeek in uncovering products and creating looks:
Interview: Research the corporate culture, blue suits to blue jeans – always ask the
recruiter or HR director what the dress code is and what is recommended for interview.
Workplace: Keep in mind that your position in the company (entry level to senior
management) may influence your dress.
Work-Related Occasions: Picnics, Holiday Parties, Seminars and Trade Shows are
just some of the occasions that require additional thought and adjustment for dress.
Social Occasions: Family Functions, Weddings, Baptisms / Bar and Bat Mitzvahs,
Engagement Parties, Holiday Parties and other occasions require additional thought.
Everyday: Whether you’re going to the beach, ballpark, bowling alley, restaurant, bar
or club, there’s a best way to dress, StyleSeek can also be your best method for
selection.
