WHAT IS PERSONAL STYLE ?

If you are a fashion lover, have you ever thought: why is my outfit so important to me and my mood?
I was getting ready for an event that I was already super late for. I didn’t pick out my outfit ahead of time, so I was rushing to get out of the door. I literally had to just throw something on. Now I didn’t look bad, however, I was not confident in my outfit. I didn’t feel comfortable for some reason. The whole night I felt like the big white elephant that nobody could talk about, lol. Don’t get me wrong, in the eyes of everyone else I looked fine. But to me something just felt off, so when I got home this got me thinking. Is clothing somehow tied to our emotions? Ultimately clothing is here to conceal and cover us. But it is truly much more deep than that. Clothing is a wordless way for you to show how you are feeling to the world. Clothing is a version of self expression that projects your inner soul to the society you live in. In a sense, you are not dressing just your body, but you’re letting people know how you truly feel on the inside based on the clothing you wear. That’s where personal style comes into play! Everyone has a style. Literally everyone. Even some folks who are not into fashion have their own style. They can still relate to this because they operate in the same way the fashion lovers do. We wear things that we are comfortable in, that make us happy, or make our soul feel complete. Development of personal style changes throughout your life, due to your experiences and growth as a person. That’s why clothing is so important to the development of people because it helps us determine and express who our real self is, without trying to put it into words. In New York you see an abundance of self expression. I can understand what someone may stand for, just by them projecting through what they are wearing. So, when you are getting dressed, think about why you decided to wear what you did. Part of it is because the outfit is just simply super cute! But also you are projecting your soul to the world. You are letting us know you through your outfit, and it not only makes you happy but your soul comfortable and confident. I’m sure there is a study somewhere out there on this topic. But clothing is like wearable art! We will discuss couture some day in the future. I hope all is well my loves, and I hope you are enjoying your summer. Until next time my pretty people!
