Uomo’s Tailored Travels – Reflection

Uomo’s Tailored Travels: Uomo is as still as a statue today. Mom’s feeling down because she is mourning a loss, and the room feels different—like someone turned the volume way down. I might not get what she’s going through, but I know this isn’t the time for my usual shenanigans. It’s a time for cuddles and comfort. As I lounge on the floor, I think about my own losses—like that favorite toy that mysteriously disappeared or a scent that faded away. No matter how hard I searched, it was gone for good. I wonder if that’s how Mom feels, searching for something that just isn’t coming back. In the men’s store, I notice something similar. When a guy wears clothes that fit just right, it’s like a warm hug. It doesn’t solve all his problems, but it sure helps him feel a bit more put together when the world’s a bit wobbly. Good clothes don’t shout for attention; they just sit there quietly, like I do with Mom. So today, I’m sticking by her side. I’m not trying to change anything; I’m just here to remind her she’s not alone. Sometimes, just being there is the best fit of all. And that’s me, Uomo, the fashionable 10-pound Havanese at Stych Inc.’s men’s store in Arizona—your very own fashion police, ready to spot any wardrobe blunders faster than you can say “what not to wear!”

Be Prepared

The Interview in many ways is at first like a playground during recess choosing up sides for some game like kickball. You want to be chosen and much is based on what others think they know about you. Making a good first impression is essential, and your appearance plays a large part, since about 90% of all communication is non-verbal. If you’re interviewing for any “White Collar” position you should wear a suit and preferably it should be Navy or Dark Grey with a White or Light Blue Shirt and your tie should be from Light blue to Navy or Red to Burgundy. The tie pattern should be simple and not solid with the tip ending up around your belt buckle. Shoes should be a well-polished black with a matching belt and socks should be similar in color to your pant leg. All these details lead to giving you the appearance of being ready to start right away and that you are the person who manages and can handle all the aspects of the job large and small. The one area that “Dressing for Success” gives you is not often mentioned but is the power of the confidence it personally gives you and the positive effect it has on your performance. The feeling of power and the respect your appearance projects should not be underrated but fully appreciated. There are numerous old sayings like, “Dress for Your Next Job.”, “If you give respect, you’ll get respect.” and “Clothing makes the Man.”. This extends also for jobs that are typically considered “Blue Collar” in nature, but still requires that you put your best foot forward. Consider a nice dress shirt (white or light blue), dark slacks and maybe a tie with tie clip. Again, the shoes should be a well-polished black with a matching belt and socks similar in color to your pant leg. Your neat, clean and well-groomed appearance will communicate a lot to your potential employer. Any variance from this should be based only on accurate pre-approach of the company’s dress code and expectations. Remember to get the job and then express your personality where applicable after you are hired. Above all always “Dress the Part” no matter what job you are interviewing for.
