A person can easily judge someone's personality through his way of dressing up or outfit. It somehow reveals the internal being of a person. We can also identify a person's status through its uniform.
But why do we really dress up? Is it to initiate a good first impression to other people? A form of expression? To show off your wealth? Or to create your own character?
The sense of fashion is actually revolving through the years and there is this sense of cultural expectations where you dress up according to how society looks at you.
Is there a purpose for why we dress up?
Well, as for me we dress up to be modest. Its deeper purpose is to take the extra effort of putting ourselves together not because of vanity but to honor the person in the environment that we face by chance.
We rarely change out of our comfy clothes because dressing up isn't always comfortable. However, there is also a mental benefit of dressing up as it puts you in the zone to work harder and be inspired.
I mean, you wouldn't want to see your bride wearing on her nightgown on your wedding day and vice versa (unless that's the motif, kind of weird). A job interview where you wear a t-shirt and shorts. It is inappropriate and disrespectful.
Personally, I don't really have a sense of fashion as what many girls do like wearing makeup and all. I usually wear neutral colors of shirts (black, dark blue, gray, brown and white) and then jeans, sneakers and that's it. To me, that's my form of expression.
That's why I don't really wanna attend occasions because I hate dressing up but taking an effort to put myself out of my comfort zone is something I consider as an achievement but at the same time embarrassment 😆
How about you guys? How do you usually dress up?
Dress up what makes you comfortable, and simplicity is beauty.
