Soul Food: Nourishment – Sincerity



KRAVE Sincerity
The navy suit has been the recommended interview/business suit of choice for a very long time. Some have even referred to it as their “sincere blue” suit, suggesting that the color of the suit conveys a message of honesty and transparency to potential employers or business constituents.
Sincerity, simply means to be free from deceit, hypocrisy, or duplicity. People who are sincere are also said to be genuine and honest.
How does a man look sincere, despite what he’s wearing? My recommendation is just BE sincere. That sounds silly, but it’s true. To be deceptive, misleading, or disingenuous may at times seem more expedient, but in the end, it usually comes back to bite you in the seat of your not-so-sincere blue.
There is no complex formula for becoming a more sincere person. It’s accomplished through consistently saying and doing the right thing. At times, being sincere may not be as eye-catching as the necktie that you wore to give your suit its pop factor, but it’s almost always respected and appreciated.
There may come a time that your trusty navy suit is dirty, or you forget to pick it up from the dry cleaners. Don’t worry; Just remember to always wear sincerity everyday and you’ll be fine.

Jays NEVER acceptable for INTERVIEWS ....

My boy Kyle just brought something to my attention that is Very essential. WHY OH WHY do we embarrass ourselves going to interviews (FELLAS) with Jays(Jordan's) on thinking we gonna get that Job. Dude just because you made Jordan $200 RICHER and Yourself a lil more poor doesn't mean they're acceptable. I see it everyday as young men come into Bestbuy askin me are we hiring wearing Jays and a tall TEE(UGGGGGGH). Are you serious, HECK NO, I get tired of hearing managers laughing at you for taking an hour to feel out that application for NO REASON. Fellas dress to impress for the JOB, at the end of the day NO ONE cares how much you spent on your JORDAN'S...... NO ONE. Dress for the Job you ultimately want in the future not the one you're tryna get. Standout you're making it to easy for the managers and top level execs. to say NO. -stay fresh
For all of my followers and FUTURE followers if you have a pic youi think is fresh email it to me and I'll be sure to post it on the Blog. Of course it will have to be approved by the Nice Dressed committee.

Looking Nice

Some people ask me on weekdays why I'm dressed up and why are you always looking nice. To be completely honest with you Looking nice is not just something you do every now and then. Looking nice is a lifestyle its something you just do. For example today i had on a nice V-Neck sweater with a tie and a nice wide spread collar shirt, with some slim boot cut jeans with some loafers. In my eye's it was a nice casual day but to some friends of mine I was TOOOOOO Clean. Now please don't read this and mistake me for some conceited guy who is stuck on self. I really just like fashion and dressing nice I try to get all of my friends around me to dress nice aswell but back to the topic. Looking nice is a lifestyle that I've come to love, I like the feeling of constantly thinking of new fits and new was of remaking old fits. Looking nice isn't only dress but its also grooming and personal hygiene as well. So ladies and gents keep this in mind.........
