I might be missing something glaringly obvious here, but as I observe what other people around me are wearing, there's something I'm having trouble putting my finger on...
There's this certain "dressed for work" look that I'm noticing: slacks, dress shirt or polo, and dress shoes, but no ties or suits. The clothes don't fit necessarily bad, in fact on initial glance and to an untrained eye, the clothes seem to fit fine. But the whole look seems to carry no style. You're dressed "nice" but you're not at the same time.
Anyone know what I'm talking about? Maybe that particular look has been burned into my mind after all these years and it's always been associated with, well, people going to work, so when I see it I think, "He's dressed for work." Wish I had a picture to show...
What's the point of this... Oh yeah, it's this: How do you dress nicely without having that "dressed for work" look?
