For the most part, I find the people who "dress to impress" are often dressing to cover other issues in their lives (small parts, maybe?).
I don't own a suit.
I don't own a Gucci anything.
I don't wear a watch.
I think I am better off than most.

Outside of work I have been and always will be a jeans and t-shirt kinda guy. Wife tried for years to get me to wear polos and such and I just didn't like to and kept with my jeans and t-shirt wardrobe.
Now, work was a different story. When I worked in the casino biz as a floorperson and pit boss I always made sure I had a very nice suit and tie. I took that as a necessity to my job that I enjoyed. Liked shopping for ties and I had a TON of endangered species ties that I wore that always was very good at breaking the ice with customers. Always had to be a bit diferent though with my ties and footwear as I often wore very nice cowboy boots with my suits and people loved both the ties and boots.
