Do Clothes Make The Man?

They say that clothes make the man…sometimes.

I recently saw a post about a gentleman who dressed up for Christmas dinner…a man who had recently retired. I privately commented that since the man is now retired, he no longer needs to dress up. Although I know he will.

Left to my own devices, I gravitate toward a more casual mode. While working from a home office for IDEMIA, Bredemarket, Incode, and Bredemarket again, I never wore pajamas to work. (Unless I was working at 3 am.) But I never wore a suit and tie either. At an on-site office I am little less casual (no shorts on-site), but not much.

In short, I prefer function over form, but capitulate to form demands when needed.
