Buy a new outfit that makes you feel good

“I realized that i love frills, ruffles, lace and anything that screams girly, pieces that look a little 'costume-y'/dramatic like cloaks, blouses with flared arms, long boots etc, and clothes that are flowy and comfortable. The most important thing in my style-finding journey was to admit what clothes i liked on myself, that fit my lifestyle, and which clothes i only liked on other people, that fit my imaginary lifestyle. Now, i've slowly started buying new pieces of clothing that i LOVE, and that make me feel beautiful, but are still comfortable on my body.”

“One day, not too long ago, I wore new clothes to work. I thought I looked pretty good, as I conducted that last quick check in the mirror on my way out the door. But no one commented on my new outfit, or how I looked in it. By 11 a.m., I was wondering if I was wrong. Maybe the new clothes weren’t as flattering as I thought. Perhaps they were in bad taste. Maybe I actually looked hideous, and people were kindly refraining from telling me so. I hurried to the restroom, the closest mirror that would show me more than whether lipstick had gotten on my teeth, to see. And there I was, looking the same as I had in the mirror at home.”

“I bought a new coat recently, and everytime I put it on I feel like a new person. I just felt more fancy, fashionable and more confident, you know? Its strange how clothes can do that sometimes.”
