Don't carry your home problems to work.

The dressing is such an integral part of a professional.
Every person is expected to dress properly at all times- clean well-ironed clothes, tidy hair, nice make-up, good perfume, etc.
Dressing professionally tells a lot about your personality and will determine how people treat you- you dress the way you want to be addressed.
