Not for work, but socially, when you go out with friends.....or a date......or with your lover
One of the great things about NYC is the variety of people you see and how they are dressed. You can be practically anywhere public and there is a mix of people all dressed up and people all dressed down.
At the theater, there can be men in suits and a few seats down, men in jeans.
Its great sometimes to throw on a pair of jeans and flip flops, but its also very comfortable to throw on a suit that fits you well every once in a while.
Wearing a suit can definatley raise your profile factor and it may be my imagination, but also people treat you with a bit more respect....doors open.....better tables at restaurants suddenly appear, and it helps keep the trolls wearing hankerchiefs in their back pockets away.
Another observation. You usually don't see a man in a suit furiously texting people all night and glued to their cell phones. They seem quite content and happy where they are and who they are with.
Now, when the drinks start flowing, the jacket comes off and the shirt gets unbuttoned.....that's a different story!
