#Justforfun I recently asked the
people on my Twitter feed...
“If
you
could get away with it, what mad outfit would you
wear to work/school run/a posh restaurant?”
Whilst the question was intended to be fun, the answer may
give us a more serious insight into a range of things such as how we
are feeling at the time of the question and our real style
personality.
For example at the time I originally
asked the question, my response would have been a Halle Berry-esque
Catwoman catsuit (read into that what you will!) but right now, the
answer would be my pyjama’s because I’m feeling tired and want to
curl up in a huge comfy sofa. Interestingly though, those two
responses also reflect my style personality as a Dramatic Natural,
whereas the idea of wearing a fairy costume or going naked would
never be options!
And that leads me to ask, why not?
Eg is the idea of going naked (even when no-one would see us) a sign
that we don’t want to feel exposed for example? And is the idea of
dressing up like a superhero or baddie about wanting to feel powerful
or dangerous? (Answers on a postcard please as they say!)
In other words what we wear (I
believe) tells us a lot, and can be used to express something going
on inside, hide, or shout out a non-verbal message.
With that in mind, what would your
answer be to the question at this moment, and why?
