Make Your Own Success Story With Embroidered Polo Shirts


Promotional advertising is all about having the brand name of your business all over the place. It is to make sure that the onlookers know about your business type that leads to successful market performance. Amongst the various promotional gifts, there is nothing that can assimilate the impact of embroidered polo shirts. 

Some of the major advantages of embroidered polo shirts are:

A polo shirt can be costly (depending on the quality). But being a business owner, if you opt to purchase them in bulk, the cost can significantly come down, no matter what the material is. Compared to other promotional outfits, a polo shirt is more formal. Polo shirts look decent on the employees and are also known to bring professionalism & productivity.

When you consider to embroider the name or logo of your business on a polo shirt, every person who sees them automatically becomes acquainted with the brand promotions. Just make sure that you opt for t shirt screen printing as the process is safer and the prints stay for a long period.

Success is hidden in the embroidery

Embroidered polo shirts are called so because of the logo or name of the business imprinted on them. But recent designs have increased the meaning of these promotional outfits. New embroidered shirts actually do not have the name or logo on the shirts, instead business owners prefer the beauty of the embroidered design to create eagerness among audience about knowing the company's name. Some of these polo shirts come with embroidery of some of the most popular places in the world, like tourist destinations and landmarks. This is, however, dependent on the type of business you are handling. In this way, people can have an overall image on what you deal with. 

Distribution of polo shirts

If you do not have a large number of employees, it is a wise choice to distribute the polo shirts randomly. You can also opt for investing in a sports team to kill both birds with one pebble. Each of the distributed outfits will contribute to making a business achieve its success story. Before planning to distribute, you must have a fair idea on where to use them. If it is a household product, investing in sports team may not be that responsive. On the contrary, if you deal with sports items or fashion items, distributing them among youths or a sports team can work wonders.

Embroidered polo shirts are the new age promotional strategy that work instantly and ensure  greater visibility.

It is quite common for many amongst us to stand in front of the wardrobe every morning, wondering what to put on for work. Most people would admit that their clothing repertoire is overloaded with jackets, shirts and funky tops. This clearly shows that we like to invest more of our money and time into fashionable apparel. However, there are certain staples which must be present inside the wardrobe of someone who has to go to work everyday.

Given below are some staples besides formal shirts, polos and jeans that have become quite popular as corporate workwear in Australia:

Black Trousers
A pair of good quality slim lined black trouser is not just versatile, but also the ultimate bottoms to wear as a part of formal wear for work as well as corporate events. Besides that, it also works really well with nearly anything, be it a full-sleeved shirt or a polo.

Black or Navy Suit
Having a well-tailored and simple suit made out of good quality fabric is a must for any workaholic. Most people prefer to wear black or navy blue formal suits prepared from light wool because it usually fits well any figure type and lasts long before necessitating a replacement.

Classic Jacket

It is one of the primary staples of corporate workwear in Australia. It can be worn with nearly anything and everything - black pants, jeans or skirt. In addition to that, there are also a plethora of colour options to choose from, including charcoal, sand, black, etc.

Not only does it help to keep warm during winter, but also imparts a professional, elegant and graceful appearance.

Tips For Choosing The Right Workwear

There was a time when cotton used to be the only option for workwear. In the modern times, however, there are a plenty of other choices, including polyester and synthetics. However, not all materials are a good choice for all professions. It is thus essential to go through the existing workwear market fads in a detailed manner.


First comes the fabric. Canvas, primarily manufactured using cotton and usually found in overall, jackets and pants, is considered ideal by many for workwear. Being natural, it is often sought for its static control and therefore it is largely worn by electricians. The fabric basically does not attract static electricity.

On the other hand, there are also synthetics and polyester, which have become quite staple as workwear due to their durability. However, the comfort level offered by them is very low. Besides that, they can also hold stains and would be inappropriate for places prone to spills, grime and dirt. But polyester is great in soaking away moisture from the body. If treated with an antimicrobial agent, it can effectively resist odours resulting from bacteria present in sweat.

In order to stay protected against the heat of harsh summers, many companies prefer tight weaves as corporate workwear in Australia. This is because tight weaves can block out harmful UV radiation and prevent it from penetrating the skin. They eliminate the need to apply sunscreen multiple times during the day.

Apart from choosing an appropriate fabric as per requirements, one must also consider make of garments. This means that there is a need to focus on areas most susceptible to wear and tear. Extra gusseting and added reinforcement in pockets, knees and elbows can help. Rivets and bar tacks can also be included on workwear options to make them tough. In order to prevent such problems as popped buttons and broken zips, one should consider workwear with heavy-duty fastenings which can withstand regular laundering and normal wear and tear.

Last but not the least, the selection must narrow down to the environment as well as the tasks that would be performed. Consideration of specialist needs is also essential, such as workers dealing with chemicals, high voltage current, flames, etc. In such cases, the most important thing to do would be observing additional standards and regulations for ensuring adequate amount of safety.

How To Find The Right Tailor?

Are you looking for a right tailor? Cannot find one? Okay...no need to worry. Just go through these and I am sure you will be able to find one within a matter of days. These are really very helpful tips. 


Find tailors with high review ratings in your city

Look at local review sites for 'alterations and repairs' 'and tailor'. Extra points if you find positive reviews from petite women. This is how I found City Tailors, one of my favourite dress makers in Bristol.

Ask other women or men

If you find any well dressed man or woman, ask him or her about the tailor who has helped them out. This is a great way of finding a fabulous tailor.

Look for tailors that advertise as specialising in ladies bespoke tailoring or custom menswear

Not all tailors specialise in ladies bespoke tailoring or custom menswear. If you are a man you need to look for tailors who offers custom menswear but if you are a woman you need to make sure that the professional whom you are giving your clothes to stitch or alter specialises in women's tailoring. The one who has specialised knowledge can handle all kinds of alterations and repairs. 



Ask clothing stores and high end boutiques where they send their customers for tailoring

The boutiques and clothing stores can be of great help to you in finding you the right tailor for your need. This is because most of the tailors have a good reputation and so works with best of the best.

Ask the tailor to show a piece of their work

This is a good idea. Before you give him or her the piece to stitch, alter or repair, make sure that the garments that has already been worked on by them have stitches that look good and symmetrical. If you find that the garment is a misshaped piece of work, run!

Give them an easy alteration or repair work before giving out the expensive one

This will be a test for them. By giving an easy job you will be able to know whether he or she will be able to meet your needs.

Popularity Of Fashion Jewellery

There has been a big increase in the sale of fashion-jewellery in today's world. Gorgeous necklaces, earrings, pins, bracelets made with crystals, gemstones and rhinestones etc. all fall under fashion jewellery. There are plenty of varieties to choose from that would match with your outfit for any special occasion keeping in mind about the latest trends.

Fashion jewellery are also sometimes addressed as costume jewellery. In 1930s the jewellery was introduced in the market and because of its inexpensive range it created a huge demand specially in the middle class society. People at that time used to wear this kind of jewellery with a particular dress for a special occasion and discarded the jewellery when it wasn't needed any more.

Presently costume jewellery is still maintaining the popularity because of its antique look. Though in the ancient time the jewellery was inexpensive but today the antique jewellery is sold in hundred and thousand of dollars. These are available in all the local jewellery shops. You can also get the option to buy jewellery online from any fashion jewellery store.

Before getting an idea about fashion jewellery, check out the four basic categories of jewellery :
  • Costume jewellery (Made up of base metals coated with silver, gold or rhodium, and adorned with glass crystals and rhinestones)
  • Bridge jewellery (Made with semi precious gemstones, sometimes highlighted with expensive gemstones too)
  • Fine jewellery ( Consists of precious and expensive stones of emeralds, rubies, diamonds in settings of gold, platinum or silver.
  • Fashion jewellery (These are contemporary costume jewellery and not antique) 
Fashion or costume jewellery is now and then made up of base metals as opposed to valuable metals and plated with gold, silver or rhodium to give the piece a bridge jewellery or fine jewellery appearance. Although a person may have only some bridge or fine jewellery, someone may even have a collection of fashion jewellery for almost every outfit.

Fashion jewellery follows the latest trend and style and that increases its popularity even more. Having an inexpensive collection of fashion jewellery in your wardrobe will make you follow the latest fashion trends. Fashion jewellery is also very popular as brides-maid gift because of its low price and unique design. You could also gift a fashion jewellery to a teen aged girl as a birthday gift!

Although fashion jewellery doesn't offer a heirloom piece, most of them are manufactured keeping in mind the present fashion trend. Thus this jewellery continues to maintain its popularity amongst the present generations.
