How to Dress for Confidence in Three Easy Steps


Dressing for Confidence 

    We all want to be confident in who we are, and many of us suffer from low confidence or self-esteem. There many steps one can take to becoming more confident in oneself, but one thing that can do wonders for an insecure individual is style. Here are some ways one can learn to use style to their advantage by choosing the items which they both feel and look great in. 


1. Focus on Comfort

        It is hard to feel confident when you do not feel comfortable. Stay away from clothing items which you feel the need to pull at and adjust and fabrics which are itchy or not weather appropriate. Instead pick items in colors which you feel comfortable in, that are in comfortable fabrics, and are weather appropriate. For example, if you have difficulty walking in heels or find you are always adjusting your tube top stay away from those items. If pink makes you feel happy, wear it! By focusing more on what you like you change your mindset to focus more on what makes you comfortable as an individual than on what others are wearing. 



2. Focus on What Flatters You

        Learn about your body shape and pay attention to the parts which you are proud of. Do you have amazing legs? Flaunt them! Do you get compliments on your waist often? Emphasize your waist. When you focus on what flatters you you will begin to celebrate your body which will help improve your confidence. 



3. Experiment With Your Style 

    Is there something which you have always wanted to wear, but for some reason just haven't? Now is your chance! Wear it and have fun! Experimenting with your style will help you see yourself differently which can be a real confidence boost. Wearing something in a new style, which you love can expand your horizons and upgrade your style.

Was Jay Gatsby Really Great?

          Fitzgerald’s  Great Gatsby  challenges the ideal American life through the protagonist, Jay Gatsby. Gatsby’s life serves as an example of the detrimental effects the “ideal life” can have on one’s character and quality of life. F. Scott Fitzgerald suggests that the American dream is not as great as it is made out to be.         The title,  Great Gatsby , gives the impression that Gatsby was a admirable character, but a look into his inner life proves otherwise. Gatsby’s greatest flaw is idealism which causes him to act on his strong desire to repeat the past and his amoral strategies for success. ‘“Can’t repeat the past?” he cried incredulously. “Why of course you can!”’ (p. 128) ‘“I’m going to fix everything just the way it was before,” he said, nodding determinedly. “She’ll see.”’ (p. 131) This major flaw had caused him to take action on his aspirations for wealth and then to work towards a new...

This is especially true with the word, “woke”  which has been  misused often in political discourse. There is immense value in understanding the true  origin of the  word “woke” and making strides to understand woke culture to enhance our critical  thinking skills. My definition of "woke culture" has not changed. I listen to a lot of political commentary which I belie...
