First of all, you are wonderful and should always show up as you are. It is important for you to feel good about yourself, no matter what. And, sometimes, that means being mindful about what you wear so you can, indeed, feel good. With the onslaught of opinions and so-called influencers coming at you from every direction, the messaging of how others believe you should look can quickly become very overwhelming. Instead of worrying about what other people think, it is time to take action and take care of yourself. Please keep reading for helpful tips that will encourage you to dress for you.
Select the Clothing that You Want to Wear
Styles and trends will come and go. Always. While you can chase the latest look, of course, you do not have to follow the masses. Be your own person and select clothing that you actually want to wear. It can include the must-have and of-the-moment styles or possibly tried-and-true classics that never go out of style. Mix and match on-trend clothing with timeless pieces to create a style book and look all your own.
The most important part of choosing clothing you will be happy to wear is finding the right size for you. Look for plus size options at retailers that focus on high-quality fabrics that are beautiful and comfortable. Many articles of clothing are designed to move with you while highlighting your beauty. Pick pieces that make you feel beautiful, because you are.
Adorn Yourself in Accessories
There is something special about accessories. They range from jewellery to scarves and handbags to sunglasses. These often small pieces of wearable art can transform any outfit into something different.
Think about this: If you are getting ready to go to the gym, but know you need to make a quick stop at a store beforehand, you might want to dress yourself up a bit. Of course, you never need to, but if you would like to, consider adding some small accessories to your gym attire. Small huggie hoop earrings, a well-worn denim jacket, and maybe a hat will pull it all together. If you have a simple black pair of quarter-length pants with a coordinating black caftan, all it takes is silver and turquoise earrings, a necklace, and a ring to instantly elevate it to something that can go straight to the office, dinner, or a night out with your friends.
Scarves and pashminas are not just relegated to chilly temperatures. They add colour, contrast, and texture to any outfit. Watch this video for 10 styling suggestions when wearing a pashmina.
Own your narrative. Wear what you want to wear. Take charge of your wardrobe by shopping for items that you know will make you happy. Follow the herd or forge your own path. Once you find pieces that help you feel confident and bring out your beauty, add accessories to make them even more you. Layer everything with a pashmina to complete the effect. Being comfortable in your skin means wearing what you want.
