I come from an environment where the men actually say, Is it OK if I take off my jacket? in a meeting. Everyone wears suits it is a very dressed-up world. Even if I wear jeans, I still wear a blazer and jewelry. I think there is something nice about coming to work and dressing nicely.

Let honesty be as the breath of thy soul then shalt thou reach the point of happiness, and independence shall be thy shield and buckler, thy helmet and crown then shall thy soul walk upright, nor stoop to the silken wretch because he hath riches, nor pocket an abuse because the hand which offers it wears a ring set with diamonds.
