6/11/2017 2 Comments finding your styleWe live in a world that's obsessed with finding our true identities. And, if you're reading this, you're probably having some issues with finding your own. But before we start: don't put your identity in fashion. This may sound weird, coming from a blog that's one thirds fashion, but don't do it. What's on your face is going to fade (did you know that your face eats make up? Pretty gross, right?), but people will remember your personality, and everyone wants to be someone awesome. To be awesome, you need an awesome personality, and that will be explored in other articles.
So what is your style? According to google, it's "a manner of doing something". So your style is more than just what you wear, it's also how you act, how you treat others, everything that you are, that's your style. But for the sake of this article, I'll just go into the fashion realm. (If you'd like me to go into finding your style personality wise, feel free to ask me or check out my self improvement blogs.) To find your style, find what you like. (I know, you've heard it before, but hear me out.) If you, like me, are that person who can't even look at certain styles without blushing, then don't force yourself. Or, if you're the opposite and secretly want to wear that kind of stuff, that's okay. (Within reason. Please don't go nude or anything like that.) Whatever the rest of the world says is 'chic' is going to change in a few days anyways, so why bother trying to keep up? Besides, this about your style, not Ariana Grande's. (If yours happens to be similar to her's, though, that's totally okay. You go ahead and rock that style.) Try on everything. Look in the mirror. Play with your hair, or don't. Put on a dress, or don't. Do whatever you think expresses what you are, and who you are within reason. And if your style doesn't seem to follow a specific pattern, that's cool, too. I'm that girl who'll dress formally one day, then dress like a a gang member, and then after that maybe dress like I'm homeless. And that's all part of my style. That's all part of me, and whatever you like, it's all part of you, no matter what people say. You're not being inconsistent, because following that logic, human beings seem inconsistent, but they're not, they're just complex, and you're complex, so obvious your style will be too. And if you just like to dress in one specific style everyday, that's okay too. Go ahead and dress super formally, even if people seem weirded out. Rule of Life: Never let others stop you from doing something positive. And helping yourself to be more comfy in your skin is definitely positive (as long as you don't hurt anyone else, you're fine. For example, if you're secretly a murderer, you really shouldn't feel comfy doing that.). So go and find your style. And don't let anyone... especially those close to you (if you have someone in your life who is holding you back from being yourself, end that relationship, it's not healthy)... stop you from finding who you are.
