Summary

• What I learn from this project is how to dress in a business environment and look professional without spending a lot of money. I also learn how to budget my money for two weeks, and wear different outfit everyday and still stay within my budget. I did this by shopping different stores for sales. The cloths that I purchase for work can also be use for other occasions. By doing this project I realize the importance of dressing for success.
