Fashion - It's All About You
What has the whole concept of “fashion” diminished to?
It’s not difficult to spot the style that’s currently burning up the streets. All you got to do is look around you and you’re bound to find one item of clothing that most people are wearing, regardless of whether it suits them or not. That’s all fashion has come down to- Wear whatever is the existing trend and you’re the fashion-vista!
What are the common inhibitions of people when it comes to “fashion”?
You can see a girl walking past looking absolutely pretty in the latest pair of shoes that everyone’s talking about, and the next minute you'd spot another girl walking by in the very same pair looking absolutely hideous. Why is that? She is wearing the exact same thing after all! Do you really think that’s all fashion is about? Is that what fashion means?
This is something most people are yet to understand. Some don’t understand this at all their lives and they spend their lives wondering why they are so unhappy with the way they look and why they don’t look as pretty as the next person, while some don’t bother all that much and still look cute in what they wear.
What makes the difference?
Any guesses as to why people who are just simple look way better than the ones who keep trying to be trendy but end up being looking just conscious? It’s simple. They know what suits them. These people know and understand their body-types and the most important fact of them all is- they have accepted the way they are. They are not pining to be someone else. Different things suit different people. If you dress according to your body type and wear what you feel comfortable in you’re going to come across as an attractive person.
How weird is it to look at someone squirming and fretting around in their obviously new and expensive designer dress? No matter how good looking the dress is no one can change the way you look in it. So why look at others? Why judge yourself according to what others are wearing? There is no harm in wanting to wear what’s going around but can you carry it off or are you just trying to push yourself into wearing something you know isn’t for you!
Will just coming out of the shell help?
Yes. Shed those inhibitions and bring out the fashion-vista hidden inside you! Experiment with different styles and look at what becomes you. Try the craze that’s floating around, if it suits you, then all is good, otherwise you can always look at the other fads around. After all, fashion changes at the drop of a hat. So go crazy with your imagination. Think of stuff you’ve never worn before that might look good on you and who knows, you might just be the next trend setter.
