I Love This Work Outfit

My boss (big boss...head of the department, not direct boss) keeps reitrating the importance of dressing for the job you want instead of the job you have. I have done this at this job since day one and have been wearing dresses, pencil skirts, etc., definitely dressing more formal than the other women (and men) with whom I work with. Our C.E.O. apparently wishes men still wore suits to work every day, which I'm fairly certain means that he wants women to dress like, well, women! The women in the office don't seem to put too much time or energy in to their work outfits. I think you feel better about yourself and take your job more seriously when you put on a work outfit...it's like putting on a persona. So, I will continue to do this and have no doubt it will help advance my career in this particular company.
