Editor’s Note - Power of Personal Appearance

Why do we wear what we wear? Why do we speak the way we speak? Why do we do the things we do? Is it because, it is out of our own initiative? Or are we doing so and so out of what others are doing, following the crowd?

I am a huge supporter of individualism. And that idealism should be realized by anyone who dares to be themselves and feel like themselves.

Now, have you ever thought that what we wear, can be a reflection of ourselves? It can be according to: our belief(s), what interests us and/or how we feel (about ourselves).

Take myself for example; I love running, to be always ready to make a move thus the sports shoes. I want to feel free and unrestricted thus my sleeveless top, so that I can move my arms freely and feel the windy breeze against my skin. I love pockets, as I love to bring stuff with me along-side when I am outside my home; thus the cargo pants.

I see myself as an adventurer thus why I wear what I have just described. In a way, we are dress according to how we see ourselves as an individual. So, what’s is the big deal you ask?

The thing is, if everyone dress according to what they personally believe in themselves with a positive light, using one’s dressing as a tool to embrace that thought: won’t that help with one’s self-esteem and self-confidence? I know it did for me.

We should not underestimate how one’s clothing can affect our outlook in life.

When was the last time you feel? Feel like yourself? Allow the way you dress, to be an influence on your life.

When you can get the chance, take the time to get that look that represent yourself as a person. Get that hair-cut you have always wanted, change your wardrobe; just spend time on yourself.

Remember the focus here is you, as a person and as an individual. Do not bother about what others think, if you take the thoughts about you too literally and personally, how will you ever appreciate yourself? Start with yourself, embrace yourself and be proud.
