Guest Post: 5 Ways How Fashion Impacts Our Lifestyle

Whether you agree or not, the clothes you wear speak tons of the way you project yourself. The question here is not about how much you care about fashion, it is about how you want the world to perceive you, to look at and treat you. The clothes you port communicate immensely about the type of lifestyle you indulge in and the way you carry yourself. For you to succeed in life, you need the right choice of clothes, just as an actor needs the correct costume to get the character right. Your clothes not only introduce you but also tell a great amount of your story. If you wish to project yourself as a clean and hardworking person, your clothes need to be washed and ironed with sharp creases, your shoes need to be polished and pointed. A lot of thought and care must be taken when you dress up as it majorly affects your lifestyle.

1. Your clothing impacts your thinking

 

Your outfit plays a major role in building your confidence and sense of self-esteem. Your style and type of outfit talks more about the type of person you are and the way you want the world to perceive you. It is also believed that the way a person dresses also impacts the way he/she is thinking. For example, wearing up in a professional outfit increases your ability to think abstractly and have a broader perspective.

 

 

2. Fashion moves money

 

Fashion is a great contributor to the economy. It generates a huge amount of revenue that keeps the money moving. Fashion plays a large role in every sector of life be it restaurants, corporate meetings, and even religious events. There are a number of brands and fashion lines that rule the world of fashion. The clothing business consists of all sizes of firms from huge to tiny. Almost every person in the world invests a considerable amount of money in their wardrobe. Nowadays, people pay more attention to the style and designs of their clothing and less attention to the price tags. One can also see that the powerlift apparels are gaining demand. Different clothing brands manufacture products for a number of retailers and merchandising lines. If any such manufacturer fails to provide products to its market then it will be a tremendous loss of the production line.

 

3. Fashion offers us a chance to be creative

We should agree that without the existence of fashion, our life would have been really boring and dull. No colors, no styles, no designs, just those same monotonous clothes. We would never have been introduced to crop tops, ripped denim, skater dresses or off-shoulders if the world had decided to ignore the fashion industry. The world of fashion gives us a chance to be creative and crazy at the same time as revamping the old navy dresses into something more fun. It could be rightly said that the clothes we wear define us, and speak for us. Fashion describes our personality as an individual.

 

4. Pressure to fit-in

Trends in the fashion world are never permanent. They change according to the seasons and it feels like an obligation to keep ourselves updated with the ever-changing trends. People, especially teenagers, make it a priority to change their wardrobes every season. We fail to realize how the fashion industry has succeeded in pressurizing people to follow fashion trends. Teenagers are more aware of the fashion updates than they are of the happenings of the world. Constant pressure is felt by the people to fit into this fashion world. People feel inferior and insecure about themselves if they fail to impress the world with their outfits and looks. People have turned into fashion slaves. But we all forget to understand that fashion is about expressing yourself and not about following the trendsetters. Fashion should make you feel comfortable and not insecure about yourself.

 

 

5. Presentation matters

Fashion has a huge impact on our lifestyle and the way we present ourselves to the outside world. By presentation, we mean not just your clothes but also the accessories, the hairstyle, the perfume that you use are also considered. An individual’s presentation also includes body language, postures, and voice intonations. The amount of enthusiasm that you show is also determined by the kind of clothes you wear. Accordingly one should decide the type of dress he/she has to wear depending on the type of the occasion. Be careful and do not overdo your outfit. Take care that you dress, groom, and choose your accessories that suit your personality both mentally and physically.

 

If you are going for an important meeting or a presentation, make sure to wear that bold red lipstick to make you look confident and in command. Dress semi-casually for an office event and attractively for a fancy night.
