First impressions are lasting ones. So, if your planning on coming to 20/20 The Vision is Clear hosted by MESH. and IPO this Thursday in D.C. you’re going to have  to impress hard. This simply means, be bold and be fly! Our man Wesley Jackson (largely responsible for the event) wants it to be known that the dress code is strict and the theme is bright! So, don’t come looking broke down or lifeless. What does this mean?

Fellas: Athletic wear is a no. I shouldn’t see Jordan’s. I should see very tailored looks. If you must wear sneakers, dress a pair of Chuck Taylor’s or any other similar shoe up. Don’t be afraid to wear a bright colored buttoned-up shirt or shorts. Make a statement and come dressed very fly and dapper. This is the perfect opportunity to market yourself to others so don’t blow it. Remember just because you LOOK nice doesn’t mean it’s appropriate for the affair. Maybe this will help…

Remember be yourself but dressed to impress. It’s not an extra formal event so don’t be afraid to wear casual items, just don’t dress how you would for ANY old event. And before you Kanye lovers chopped my head off. He’s fly in what he has on but it isn’t appropriate for the event.

Ladies: One word, heels. I mean this shouldn’t be hard for you girls, girls know how to dress right? (Wrong! Some of you ladies don’t wear the appropriate clothes to certain affairs). For this one, try to be that girl everyone is forced to stare at. Be strategic with your color choices as well as your accessories. Bright colors, nice dresses, you know…try to find your husband at the event. Basically, compete with that bitch in the room whose trying to take the attention away from you.  Aisha found these examples for you.

I’m sure you ladies will come dressed to impress. Don’t let me down.

Can’t wait to see everyone there fly and ready to make powerful moves.
