Wow, serious business in here. While I truly believe there is a time and place for certain types of clothes having just bought a light blue suit with brown shoes, which is totally out of my comfort zone, I am lucky enough to be at a point in my life and career where I no longer care which is good as I have no fashion sense whatsoever and it looks like it saves me a few bucks.
I wear shorts and a t-shirt 90% of the time (for work) but sometimes forget about meetings. I did a big meeting with Dell/EMC with about 10 Dell reps and a couple from my side (VFX) and everyone was in a nice suit but me. Had a good meeting and lunch though and I think we hammered out a pretty good deal. About 2 weeks later I get an email from the VP of enterprise sales and he sends me a picture of him with shorts and deck shoes on with the caption "best meeting ever, thanks for the tip.". Got a good laugh out of that.
I wish I had some fashion sense but I just cannot do it. My brother got it and I did not.
What's a decent shirt to wear with jeans? Like a collard dress shirt kind of thing. Spruce up the jeans an t-shirt look once or twice a year.
