Fashionista

For a long time I was always proud of the clothes I wore, and a how I dressed. In the last couple of years however, I haven’t put much pride of effort into it. As of late I’ve just been putting on some bottoms, chucked a top on and called it a day. I know a lot of this laziness has come from me having to wear a uniform almost every day. When it came to going out I haven’t bothered to try and be my normal stylish self.

Once my clothes used to tell a story, the underpants matched the socks. The shoes matched the top, or everything matched everything. This of course was no small or easy task, it used to take me a very long to get the outfit just right, so I wouldn’t go out looking like a fashion victim. My wardrobe used to be colors of the rainbow, now I just look a little too hetro. I used to work in fashion retail; I should know a thing or two, on how to dress well.

 I used to run style by FabEs, where I would take my Ken’s analyzes their style and make them H O T hot. Now I don’t think I could even make a decent attempt as my knowledge and skills are lacking.

How comes I’m suddenly so obsessed with what I look like? Well given that with my new job my uniform is whatever I want it to be has got me thinking. I know practically I should just do jeans and t shirts, but I owe to myself to try harder. Not to show off, but to simply take advantage if it while I can. While at the same time allow myself to experiment with different looks and see what I like. I should be trying and make an outfit a combination that can pass as day outfit, while just adding to it makes it and night look.

 The thing I want most is put myself back to a FabEs that knew he was dressed well not matter the situation.  At the same time allowing myself to flex a skill I though I had lost so long ago, which I don’t even think it’s possible. That’s why if I can I would like to go bigger with my clothes and get back to that harsh critic.

I don’t want to say this without it having any meaning, as I always start something and get to busy to finish, but this is something I would like to make the time for. As I now realize I have the gift of time, and I think I will talk more about what’s going on in my wardrobe as well everyone else’s.
