Don't even give yourself the chance.

This post is inspired by a philosophy I keep and this post

When leaving Georgia,and coming to New York, I packed only the GREAT clothes. No graphic tees,and no baggy pants etc. Now if i want to dress down my only option are some no name sweats, either polo boots or common projects,and a polo hoodie. Even when i dress down i don't have a chance to look bad.

When applying this to yourself,just lock all your old "What was i thinking" wear in a closet,and you'll find yourself without an option to look bad.

Shirts:i have many options,all either button downs or polo sweaters, and a rugby by polo. I have VERY FEW white plain t-shirts,and i don't believe i've worn one out this year yet...which i might soon.

Pants:I have 3 options my levi 501 stfs (had them about 6 months,fades coming slowly but surely) polo corduroys,and black dress pants.

shoes: again 3 bad dress shoes,polo ranger boots,and common projects trainer boots.

Yes my wardrobe is limited,and I'd rather have limited than my old overpacked horrible street-wear ridden wardrobe.

PLEASE UNDERSTAND: I do not hate street-wear,but i have old school parents,and i attended a private school (Linden S.D.A.) K-8. I wear clothes that I can wear around my parents,and the people that raised me at that school,and not have to explain anything. Please remember the quote that every style-conscious person should know "Dress for the job you want,not the job you have" especially if you're unemployed.(I don't mean by the economic definition of unemployed)
