Being You Never Goes Out of Style
Friday, September 18, 2015
While feminism and the body-positive movement are making incredible progress on how women are been treated and viewed by the world, some people take these messages to be all-inclusive. Which is to say, if you are not walking around bare-faced with dowdy clothes and a simple hairstyle, you are not standing for women.
This is, Not True! For the women who enjoy donning makeup, incorporating extreme fashion trends, and getting extensions or weaves, keep reading to learn how being yourself and doing your own thing is always in style.
Recent videos and photos demonstrating #thepowerofmakeup have gone viral around the web. Why? It’s a notice to all the style-shamers that wearing makeup or any accessory meant to enhance your appearance, doesn’t mean a woman is insecure or trying too hard to get a man’s eye. Just like when you played dress up, painted your nails, and stole Mommy’s lipstick as a kid, wearing makeup is fun! Women (or men) do it because they like it and it helps them express themselves.
One thing is for certain: no one can be you. Like you can. It’s one thing that every human has as an advantage. You can easily mimic someone else’s style, and end up being a shade less authentic. So, don’t get down on yourself about the stigma of painting your face or rocking extra long hair.
If these beauty and fashion concepts echo the YOU that you want to share with the world, then embrace them. Put your unique mark on fashion and beauty like only you can and express yourself however you’d like. Remember, when you are wearing what you love, you will always look your very best—and that never goes out of style!
