This caption is true for myself. I'm one who likes to get up and get dressed. I'm not an all day pajama person. You never know who will drop by or what you'll suddenly have to go do... so be ready.
It affects my thinking by altering my plans for the day. Sometimes I will change my outfit because I don't feel cute enough to go out. Vain?...so be it. Dress for success as they say.
My clothes are a reflection of my mood and vice versa. I have certain clothes I wear when I'm sick. I can spruce up my mood by putting on a favorite or new item.
I've gotten rid of all my old interview clothes because they're too business like. I don't want to act all formal now days. It's just not me.
Our reactions may be too quick but we all have an opinion. We don't have to dress to impress but we shouldn't shock others either. Less is not more when it comes to clothing and covering your body.
Just put a little thought in what you wear. It's good for you and others.
I agree I have gotten rid of at least 25 suits that I wore in the work environment, now its jeans and a old shirt. Clothes do make you feel different depending on the occasion I may wear a dress up shirt with my jeans. Dad
ReplyDeleteKindred spirits, we are! I'm amazed at how what I'm wearing can take me from feeling like a dumpy, frumpy house wife to "hey, not so bad for a mom of 5"...in 0 - 60! My nephew posted the other day "Ladies, you already have guys attention. Now, keep your clothes on". Modesty is so important. But I also think dressing neatly and attractively in too.
ReplyDeleteYep! Yesterday I never put on make-up and wore sweats that I walked in. Dumpy, frumpy housewife is right! I had to pick up my granddaughter from work, and she would have waited inside for hours if I had had to get out of the car! This morning I was dressed and ready for the day before 7 o'clock, and I feel better. Although I have to say, I do opine folks by the way they dress, and I'm sometimes wrong.
