Did you know that you can boost confidence and self-esteem just by the way you dress?
You make a first impression within the first few seconds of meeting someone, and you know that you’re making a good impression when you look good. You don’t have to be a model walking the runway, but if you know how to put an outfit together, you’ll most definitely improve your self-confidence.
Dressing well doesn’t mean a three-piece suit or even a tie every day. It just means wearing what looks good on you, and knowing how to outfit your body. Sometimes, the most subtle looks make the best impressions.
Once you learn how to wear the right pieces, your wardrobe will stop holding you back and start pushing you towards success. How dressing affects your attitude and confidence is a wonderful thing, because you’ll find that once you boost your self-esteem, you’ll want to take more risks when you get dressed in the morning - risks that will make you feel good about yourself. And the loop just continues on its positive spiral!
Small Tips That Go A Long Way
The best way to make sure that your outfit comes together in a way that improves your self-confidence is by starting at the bottom - with your shoes. Invest in the best-quality pair of shoes that you can afford, and you’ll notice a shift in your attitude right away. This is because quality shoes don’t just look good, they feel good too.
Next comes a tip that might surprise you. It doesn’t have to do with clothes, but it actually does have an impact on your self-esteem. Instead of using a crappy, chewed-on pen throughout the day, purchase a high-quality pen that will set you apart from the rest. You don’t need to spend an arm and a leg on it - just make sure it looks elegant. We promise, it will complete your look in a way you’ll really like.
Your wallet comes next. Instead of carrying around the same old cardholder that you’ve had since college, it’s time to find something new. Go for something classic, like brown leather, and the sophistication factor will be amped up.
Once you’ve got your accessories nailed down, it’s time to think about your outfit itself. Even if you’re just going out for a casual stroll, there are ways that you can boost your self-esteem with what you wear. For example, don’t just dig any old t-shirt out of your drawer and call it good - wrinkles and all. Instead, invest in one with unbeatable quality, like those that we offer at Perk. Our tees, made of pima cotton, won’t fade, stretch, or pill. These tees will last for as long as you need them to, and they’re super soft to the touch - meaning they won’t irritate even the most sensitive skin!
As for your casual-but-classy pants, there’s no better choice than chinos from Perk. These pants can be dressed up or down, and they come in a variety of different shades. They flatter all shapes and sizes, emphasizing what looks good to make it look even better. When you wear our chinos, you’ll feel like the best version of yourself - and that’s exactly what we want. Improving your self-confidence is what we’re here to do!
Hey, they’re called ‘Feel Good Chinos’ for a reason.
Fashion and What It Means
Fashion is about more than the clothes you wear. It’s about your look in general and the way that you hold yourself. Fashion can even include your hairstyle!
One thing fashion doesn’t have to be is expensive. There are ways that you can look expensive while still saving a buck or two where you can. The key to making this happen is finding the styles that suit your shape and investing in a good number of them.
Another good piece of advice is to wear clothes that fit. Buying clothes too small will never do you any favors, and buying them as ‘goal clothes’ isn’t healthy. Clothes aren’t meant to sit in your closet and wait for you - they’re meant to be worn! So, shop for the body that you have right now. When you do that, you’re exemplifying self-acceptance that will soon turn into self-confidence.
Hint: buying clothes that are too baggy is trendy right now, but you’ve got to know how to do it right. Wearing something tight on the bottom and baggy on top is the way to go!
Fashion is how you can put your confidence on display and learn to feel comfortable in your own shoes - or clothes!
