FUCK FASHION: It Starts With Confidence

You want to know the secret to looking absolutely stunning?

It's CONFIDENCE.

Not the "in" shoes, bag, sunglasses, jacket, etc.. Not the most expensive perfume you can afford. And, believe it or not, it certainly isn't money.

CONFIDENCE.

Not to be confused with egotism, confidence is that awesome state of being that improves your posture, and you smile more, and tend to have a great attitude- people generally want to be around you. No matter what you're wearing, you will never truly be able to look amazing without confidence.

I know, it doesn't come easy for everyone.

A lot of people struggle with self esteem. You may be too short, too fat, have a big nose, have bad skin, have suffered injuries, diseases/disorders, etc. You may have been teased or beaten up a lot. You may still be harassed today. But I can tell you something-

You CAN change that.

When you stop dwelling on the negative things, and focus on the positive, your mindset will begin to change. This shift will help you to bring out the good things in yourself, and start working toward happiness.

Accept and learn to laugh at your flaws. We've all got them, and the only thing that truly matters is how we handle our own. When we are confident, we are less likely to get caught up in our insecurities and make it 'weird', and that's less awkwardness for us to deal with. It takes practice interacting with people, but in time, after various successes in facing your fears, you will start to gain confidence in yourself.

Get away from those who bring you down. You want to surround yourself with caring, supportive people who encourage you to be your best every day. If you are in a bad life situation, get yourself out of there immediately. There is always help if you need it. Your environment, and the people in it, have a very strong influence on your emotions.

Do what YOU want to do. Do you dream of working for yourself? Traveling the world? Being a writer? Then do it! You can if you put your mind to it. Set both long and short term goals and do something every day to achieve them. Your hard work WILL pay off, you will have learned much from the journey, and you will be doing something that makes you happy.

Take some time for yourself. When you're having a hard time emotionally, find some time to go to the spa to unwind (or soak in the tub for a while), or paint, or go hiking, or whatever you like to do to get away from the stresses of the world. You need that time to get yourself back to a positive mindset. Positivity is everything!

Once you have found confidence in who you are and what is important to you, you won't give a flying fuck what anyone thinks about what you're wearing.

Dress for YOU. Wear the things that flatter your assets and make you feel beautiful. Carry yourself with confidence. And SMILE!

That, my friends, is the key to looking absolutely stunning- CONFIDENCE!
