No mother, I don’t care about what you think of my outfit!
From kindergarten through highschool, I had to suffer by wearing a uniform and I’ve developed an aversion to the color maroon since I have to wear an awful skirt in that color from grades 9 through 11. Then a vomit-like green colored knee-length skirt when I transferred to another school. Sometimes I wonder if the school uniforms are universally made to be ugly on girls or just my particular schools. I suspect that it’s the latter. Finally college! Freedom! But I was very confused as to what my style is and since my mother is very conservative, she pretty much dressed me in long-sleeves and long dresses. So I discovered shorts, mini-skirts, body-con dresses and ripped jeans and wore them all to my heart’s content. Now that I’m a bit older, I know exactly what I want to wear and what I look good in. I do believe that people have a right to wear whatever they want without being harassed. However, there is a time and a place. Obviously, it would be inappropriate to show up at a wedding in this dress. I support anyone’s decision to dress as they please as long as they’re not making other people uncomfortable or inconvenienced.
The reason why I have a fashion blog is that I can experiment with outfits I don’t usually wear in public like a super tight dress or a revealing top. It’s a lot of fun and you’re allowed to express yourself in your own private space. A great philosophy for a personal style is to wear anything but be mindful about where you are and what your purpose is.
