Have you ever thought that your clothes can show how you feel every day? When people feel happy they tend to dress in colorful, confident, and sexy but when they feel sad, they usually wear dark colors and loose clothes.
So whether you realize it or not your daily outfits can reflect your inner mood, and you can also use your clothes to improve your state of mind.
How clothes can show when you are not in your best mood and what can you do
The first thing to notice is if your outfits suddenly start to become overdressed, use too many accessories, or dress vulgarly, you are looking for external validation. You’re NOT feeling pretty and confident enough anymore.
Start by thinking about what has happened to you lately that has affected you, then remind yourself that everything happens for your best you are enough. Most important, start loving yourself more. Take a little time for yourself.
If you’ve been wearing the same style or colors for years, you’re afraid to step out of your comfort zone and fear change.
On the contrary, if you dress neutral, loose, without accessories and colors, to pass as unnoticed as possible, it means that you are afraid of being seen because you don’t deserve it and that you are not good enough. Start believing that you are beautiful and deserve the best. Make a daily list of the smallest things you did well that day and then put those that happened well to you on it too.
You can start with just a small daily change in both your clothes and your daily life. Just change an accessory and put the cup on your desk to the left instead of the right.
If you’re used to wearing a certain type of t-shirt, dress, or another garment since childhood or adolescence and you act a little differently than on other days, it means that your clothes are telling you something. Remember when you first dressed like that and what happened then? You may have some trapped emotions left over.
These are just a few examples and do not mean anything serious and by the time you are aware of them, they are already half-cured. And to be able to notice when something unusual is happening in the way you dress, take a picture from time to time. You can also ask a close friend about your outfits.
