“Dressing up is a way of reclaiming happiness regardless of outside factors"
Do we take all the the efforts to dress up and look good, for ourselves or for others to see?
Many of us, especially women / girls claim they dress up for themselves and to feel good.
Though it is debatable and subjective, there is no denying that dressing up well to the occasion surely leaves an impression on others.
It is laughable when actresses and Insta models claim to dress for themselves, as their whole career/life depends on looking good, and are fashion icons.
Professionaly, it surely makes a world of difference with the way you present yourself at work or client visits. More sharper you look, the respect and attention surely grows.
Dressing up surely lifts our own spirits apart from spiking the atmosphere around us.
The 2 years of downtime during Covid times when we were holed up in our homes with just Shorts and a T Shirt on, looking shabby all the time was probably one of the reason we were depressed.
The way we dress up represents our personality. Whether you make it gaudy or simplistic or elegant, each of us have our own persona that fits us.
The way we present ourselves even on regular days and not only during occasions, talks volumes about our attitude, approach towards life.
Many times the way we dress up resonates our mood and spirit levels and speaks how disciplined and principled we are.
Dressing up well and apt to the situation, not only lifts our own spirits and confidence, but lifts the mood of people around us.
Dressing up doesn't mean we have to follow trends or fashion, the daily wears, the regular office wears or night wears if chosen and worn well, can make us look sharp and smart.
People in their youth and middle age will usually make efforts to look good. But it's more pleasing to see infants, kids and elderly dress well/dressed well.
When my wife or women in general take literally an hour to get ready, though it is irritating at that moment, but when they come out looking stunning, it's worth all the wait.
So, let's dress up to keep ourselves happy, feel spirited, be confident, motivate others, impress others and fill the world with good looking people!
