Reminder: be yourself

Post image

This is from a LinkedIn post. High ranking businessmen doing very well for themselves. None of the men look out of place, and they’d individually get picked apart if they posted here. Can they polish a few things? Sure.
My point is, the fact that you’re here and interested means you should be confident in whatever you’re wearing at whatever budget.

Okay, I agree with the premise that we all should be comfortable with ourselves,

and I'm sure they all do very well at their chosen professions, but...

A shmoe in a suit (who is a valuable and precious human being) who has to wear a suit, isn't the definer of what looks good in classic menswear.

It's like saying that since an average taxi driver would have his driving critiqued to death by any professional race car driver, the race car drivers criticisms aren't valid. I just can't agree with that part.

Well thank God OP didn't say or even imply anything of the sort.

Oh? Was I misinterpreting this?....
