Style and Confidence 10-15-11

I have Something to Say about STYLE and CONFIDENCE!  At 20 I thought I knew who I was, what I wanted to do, and where I wanted to go.  At 30, I realized at 20 I really didn’t have it all figured out and have since made many changes in my life from what I want to do and who I want to do it with, to what I want to wear while doing it.  At 35, I have my own sense of style.  I have my own glasses through which I view the world and form my own opinions.  I cut my hair off, dyed it blonde and now rock a Mohawk!  Who would have thought I’d do that?  Not me!!!  Some days I over accessorize; some days I tone it down, while others I turn it up.  There is really no method to my madness.  At this point in my life, “"it is what it is".”  Every hill, every valley, every mountain top, and every curve on this body of mine……....................IS MINE!!!  I own them and I am not ashamed.  I am comfortable in my own skin.  I used to be concerned about what other people would be wearing when I went somewhere.  Will I be over dressed?  Will I be under dressed? Who cares!!!!  Whatever I wear, I rock it how I rock it, and I feel good in it! 
Ladies, I encourage you to find your own style.  Dare to be different or just dare to be you-whatever "“you”" is.   I have found that for me, which may not be for everybody, putting time into your appearance and your style feels good.  It can make what looks to be a dreary day, feel like it is filled with sunshine.  In the winter, I like to wear fun socks, whether they match what I am wearing or not; besides they're down in my boots anyway.  I might be rockin' a cold pair of grey patent leather boots, but down on the inside might be a pair of green socks with penguins! LOL!!  Hey, it makes me feel good and I think it is hilarious!!!  I have said all this to say: if you are bald headed, rock it! Get you some lashes and play up your make-up.  Or get you a bad (bad meaning good) wig and rock it!  If you are a big girl, so what!!!!  Get you some Spanx, throw some heels on (see #2 on my Pearls of Wisdom page at http://www.somethin2say.com/), and keep it movin’!  Spanx or any other type of shapewear can work wonders!  Find your own style and be confident in it.  It may take some time, but you can do it!!!
