STOP underestimating, underevaluating, and marginalizing women in this sexist and discriminating article.

this blog is for real estate agents who care about how they look. i’m sure the owner of this block meant well when she was, addressing those who care about the way they look, and the money that they could make for the money that they’re throwing away just by face value. sometimes people don’t realize that they look more like a hooker or a thug then comfortable and beautiful. So you are probably doing the rest of us a favor and the community. Thank you.

In reply to LizB. Liz, totally agree! and don't worry, we cover men too and there are 27 things not to wear on their list! Everyone should feel comfortable with what works for their brand, just as long as it's professional!

I try to wear “branded” items as often as possible. Anything with “The Jones Group ~ Keller Williams Realty” like nice polo shirts, sweaters, blouses, and I wear my name badge religigiously. Never know when you’ll pick up a client that way! I love business casual, but there are times when a suit, or jeans, comfy shoes are needed.

Totally agree about dressing professional. This is the real world now, it’s not ‘all about you’ anymore. If it is, then maybe you’d be happier at Abercromby & Fitch. People will gravitate to the person who they subconsciously trust, especially when making $400,000+ decisions.

It’s 2023 and to see an article written by a woman, effectively placing judgement on how women dress, is grossly disappointing. Dressing for yourself and your personality, while keeping in mind your client and their needs, is the only parameter we should be setting. It’s that simple. Fashion rules don’t exist anymore, and unless you’re instructed to wear a uniform or there are specific guidelines in a work place, as independent contractors, dressing to express our personalities is a bonus of being our own bosses.

This is great but, for someone who runs a farm, that is a flooring installer, & works real estate, yeah this doesn’t apply to a lot of women I know who work dirty jobs plus real estate. And that’s the beauty of being self employed and you can work with whoever you want. All my clients know what I do and they all know that if I’m in the middle of shoveling shit or dealing with birthing calves, in the middle of doing a floor & they call me, they know I’ll drop everything and go. No questions are asked except how decent are you? If I’m covered in shit, they know I’ll change clothes but it’s always on the fly so no telling how I’m gonna show up. And they know I Lena business no matter what attire I have on

Where’s the article on what men should and shouldn’t wear? This feels so wrong. EVERYONE should wear professional attire – we represent our industry, our company and our own brand. If my brand is jeans and blouses, fabulous for me. If a guy’s is polo shirts and khakis, good on him. No one should wear ripped jeans or shorts.
