Keeping up with the miracles of feeling beautiful and looking great- everyday requires a lot of effort! Whether we like to accept it or not; we are a part of the society, where we are first judged by our look and appearance, and then by anything else!
But above all; the fulfillment of staying beautiful forever can only be accomplished, when we feel ‘great’ about ourselves- from the inside too! Sometimes the huge possession of beauty products, trending shoes and clothes and or most expensive body creams’ and perfumes- also cannot make us -stand-out in the crowd; when we have had been feeling hateful about ourselves!
“I often (I am sure ‘you’ must be also sometime, somewhere) get carried away by the latest style and fashion-I see in stores, in the fashion blogs, or on the Internet; but everything is not made for everybody.” We are all blessed with different physical features; and owning the right ‘one’ for yourself -can make things easier.
“I am not a fashion and beauty expert; but I have my own findings and takes- when it comes to style and beauty tricks! I like to dress smart and look attractive in my ‘comfortable’ way!” After all “fashion is all about feeling comfortable in your skin and body.”
“I wish to look my best, every time I go out; but there are days when I fail to keep up with my make-up or perfect dress, or with looking beautiful and smartly dressed, to say!” This is a post for such days- when a new trendy top or a bright lipstick; and or a stylish pair of shoes does not do any wonders; these ‘feel good’ essentials will work magical to give you a lift or a better feeling instantly!
This is a post for those days; when even your concealer fails to conceal the unexpected appearances on your face; and a lipstick will be the wrong choice to hide your dark blisters on the lips! This post is about the days when a new haircut (extremely excited to go for a new haircut) turns out to be the most hated decision ever made!
Here I am sharing the essential beauty and style must-haves for every woman; that can lead you to a mindful approach to looking and staying beautiful- just your way:-
1. Staying Confident
Stay confident about your picks and tastes; because that is the choice (s) you have made for your personal style- and it matters! It may not be alluring for others’, but your confidence should be such that; it can create a fashion trend.
Feeling confident in your clothes is the first step towards feeling stylish! There will be days when you would want to look effortlessly stylish and attractive without doing much; but you won’t be confident about picking the right dress! In such occasions; trust your instinct and go for it. Have a confident smile on your face and feel good from the inside out. Wear that enchantment aura and be confident! You may be the one ‘looked at last’ in a party; but people will still feel the confidence and kind vibes-you have left behind you.
2. Feeling Comfortable in Your Body and Skin
Love your body with imperfections. You may not have perfect long hairs or perfect lips or the perfect body shape; but you are uniquely beautiful. You have many other beautiful features, that others are not blessed with! “I know some of my friends, who do not wear flip-flops/sandals/slippers; just because they think, they do not have beautiful feet.” Running from your insecurities will only make things worse for you. It will bring down your confidence and self-esteem. Feel comfortable to accept them with confidence. And you will never feel embarrassed and uncomfortable to show it up. Accept your body and skin-just the way it is; and feel good.
“I may not be comfortable in wearing dresses or tops-that are sleeveless; but I am good at pulling things together than can make me look more chic and stylish (while feeling all covered).” This is how you should feel everyday.
Create a style statement that fits your body and skin- and look great! “I love to collect inspirations (in style and fashion) from others; and bring it all-together and create something new for myself. Sometimes they turn out great and I receive lots of appreciations and wonderful comments; and sometimes they turn out worst. But I don’t give-up; because I enjoy creating for myself-my personal style; and I have seen girls and women following them too:):)”
3. Loving yourself
Love to see your-self in front of the mirror -every day! When you love and respect your beauty, body and skin- people are must to follow! Loving yourself in any situation, will ease your worries for unexpected problems.
Like a month back; “I had developed fever blisters in and around my lips, resulting in darkened lips. I was feeling embarrassed to even keep my face up in front of people. And above all, we were going on a trip for the long weekend. I realized; hiding my lips and staying away from pictures won’t settle the problem. I need to face it, and stop pretending to hide it from others. The worst feeling was also due to the reason that; I won’t be able to flaunt my new lipsticks, I had planned for the trip.” But I realized; beauty is all about feeling beautiful and good at any given situation-whether good or bad, planned or unplanned. Once you love yourself, true style will come naturally and effortlessly.
4. Regardless of age, shape and skin tone; get back your style mojo.
Learning the tricks and tips to style for your age, shape or skin is just fun. Don’t follow trends. Do not follow stringent rules. Just buy yourself things; that will make you look beautiful and or attractive. Learning to create personal styles is not a daunting task! All you have to do is; be your own stylist and take pictures to compare- the before and after results. Find flattering and affordable styles, that will make you stand-out! Take baby steps towards improving (if you want to), or adapting new styles and trends in fashion. “I am sure; you will get better each day.” This will also help you to understand your body, shape and the size.
Find the inspiration to perpetuate your own style. Learn. Create. Adopt. Style and Flaunt.
Definitely true, confidence and loving your body is necessary to appear or to wear the clothes great (and feel great wearing them) 🙂 And once you find your own style, stick with it 🙂 xx Maja
