IS FASHION ALL ABOUT YOUR CONFIDENCE?

What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you hear the word Fashion? I think of fashion as a way to express myself without having to speak. I firmly believe, that having the right confidence is the key to fashion. It’s only when you are comfortable and feel good about what you wear is when you look good!1-1

IS IT REALLY IMPORTANT TO WEAR WHAT IS IN?

The answer to this is a big NO! Dressing with confidence is more than wearing the latest fashion trend. This may surprise you but you “feel first” and “dress later.” Not every day is as good as the previous one and vice versa but what really matters is how you handle the situation to make things better. You can put on a 10 year old cloth and still stand out from the crowd. While you also need to be clear that dressing for the right occasion also matters. Before you go for a shower, stand in front of your closet and give consideration to the occasion. You cannot wear something flashy at work until you want to get all the attention! Yes, colour does matter and plays an important role in sending out a message. So don’t wear a colour because you think it looks good on you, rather figure out what message you are communicating to others. Colours like brown, maroon, navy blue and cream represent an image of reliability whereas calm colours like apple green, pale pink and apricot are good for a get together as they encourage communication. If you have a presentation to give and speak in front of your colleagues and boss you should opt for colours like navy blue, deep purple and maroon as it helps in grabbing attention than distracting them.

Now that you know what colours to wear, half of your confidence levels will go up when you see yourself in the mirror. But what about the other half? The rest of the confidence will come when you discover your own style. Your personal style is expressed in what you do and when you get enlightened about your own style you can express yourself with confidence. Take a moment and decide which style suits you best. I’m sure your friends and colleagues would have complimented you on the attire you wore to the office or a get together. Make that your style statement and wear clothes of the same style or you can even try out something new that is trending if you are confident about carrying it off. After all, fashion is all about something that comes from within you!
