Whether we intend it or not, what we wear can actually say something about who we really are. We are often judged by others based on how we look. Our choice of clothing plays an important role in that.

Although it may not be apparent to everyone at all times, even the most serious minded business professionals have a lighter side to them. It is basic human nature to enjoy humor. Laughter is great medicine. But there is a time and place for everything. Some professions do not allow room for humorous or casual clothing and in that case the fun stuff has to wait for the weekends.

In such cases we are sometimes surprised when we see our attorney or doctor dressed in jeans and a t shirt. It’s as though we did not realize there was a casual side to them.

Have you ever considered what impression your clothing gives others? If you are the type to wear funny t shirts you are most likely thought of as a person with a good sense of humor – even to the people you pass on the street. People see the shirt and smile or chuckle and immediately associate you with wittiness. That’s not a bad thing at all.
Vintage t shirts can remind others of the past and conjure of good memories associated with that period. Because you are wearing the shirt others will assume that the time period was meaningful to you also – it’s a great conversation starter. Whether your t shirt boasts “Knight Rider”®, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles”®, “Miami Vice”®, “Monopoly”®, or any of a number of other things remembered from the past, someone else is sure to have also loved the same thing. This creates an immediate connection of sorts.

Shy people sometimes find it difficult to start conversations with others. This does not mean that they do not like to talk or that they do not have a sense of humor. But they may go to a party and try as they may; they simply find it difficult to begin a conversation with someone. A funny t shirt can be very helpful for them. Because others are often attracted to the wit and humor of the shirts they will make comments and conversations will often flow from there. This of course eases the discomfort for the shy individual.

As silly as it may sound, in more than one instance, funny vintage t shirts have been responsible for bringing couples together – couples that have since married and created lifelong relationships. People really do judge you by what you wear, and sometimes that’s a good thing!
