职场铁则之十八——Develop a Style That Gets You Noticed塑造吸引人的风格

The word is “style.” That means tasteful, formal, civilized, sophisticated, elegant, cultured, refined, and discerning. You are going to develop a style that gets you noticed in all these things. Dying your hair red and only ever wearing Goodwill clothes may indeed be a style and one that does get you noticed, but it’s not for the Rules Player. Think Cary Grant rather than Boy George. Think Lauren Bacall rather than Madonna. All have style, all attracted attention. But trust me, Cary or Lauren is what you want. Classic, timeless, quality. You have various options if you want to adopt a style:

“风格”的意思为有品味,正式,文明,高雅,优美,文化,完善,以及可识别。你需要塑造一个包括以上所有内容的风格。 把头发染成红色以及只穿好衣服可以算是一种风格并且被人注意到,但是这不是铁则玩家的风格。想一下Cary Grant 而不是Boy George,想一下Lauren Bacall而不是麦当娜。都有自己的风格,都很吸引人。但是相信我,Cary 或 Lauren是你想要的。经典,永恒和品质。如果你想形成一种风格你有多种选择:

  • Choose one thing and get known for it—always wear black, or double breasted, or Armani, or have a classy handbag/ briefcase collection. Develop a trademark dress style—and stick to it.
  • Only ever buy the very best you can afford.
  • Never wear anything tight—loose clothes talk of quality and elegance, tight clothes of poverty and cheapness.
  • Less is more—cut down on jewelry and buy/wear only the very best, the finest. If it’s not expensive, then don’t wear it. You’ll find that if you only limit yourself to very expensive items, it helps you eliminate anything that might be considered dubious or of questionable taste—spending a lot
  • makes you much more discriminating.
  • If you wear make-up, then stick to what suits you, what makes you look good. Don’t change your makeup with the seasons or with what’s in vogue—be known for your look, be instantly recognizable, be stylish.
  • 选择一件知名的东西—一直穿黑色的,或是双排扣的,或是阿玛尼,或是经典的手袋、公文包。开发一种标志性的服饰风格并坚持下去。
  • 只买你能买得起的最好的东西。
  • 不要穿紧身的东西—宽松的衣服显示的是品质和优雅,紧身的衣服显示的是贫穷和廉价。
  • 少就是多—减少珠宝的购买和穿戴,除非特别好的,最精致的。如果不是很贵,就不要穿戴他。你会发现除非你限制自己在非常昂贵的东西上,他会帮你排除很多的疑虑或是置疑—这成本更贵
  • 让你更容易区分
  • 如果你化妆,那就要坚持适合你的,能让你看上去更好的。不要随着季节或是流行改变你的化妆风格——让你的化妆方式为人所知,容易辨识,也是一种风格。

Always dress up rather than down—formal is best, informal is worst.

Make sure all accessories follow the same Rules as your dress sense—stylish, expensive, loose, recognizable, tasteful. There’s not a lot of point in looking good and then dragging round a battered old briefcase that’s seen better days—not unless, of course, that’s your trademark, in which case make sure the briefcase is very old and very battered and very expensive.

总是着装现代,而不是代下——正式最好,不正式最差。确保所有的配件也遵从同样的原则——有风格、高贵、宽松、可识别、有品味。要看上去很好,在这里没有太多的要点可言,当你都穿得很好但是拎着一个烂包包,那也是你的标志,除非确保那个公文包非常旧并且非常烂和非常昂贵。

THINK C ARY GRANT RATHER THAN BOY GEORGE. THINK LAUREN BA C ALL

RATHER THAN MADONNA.

想一下Cary Grant 而不是Boy George,想一下Lauren Bacall而不是麦当娜。
