I think it’s important that you feel good about yourself.  For each of us, this can be something different. I know that I have mentioned this before but a few years ago, I was going through a really bad patch in life (as we all do).  I wanted to feel good about myself, because seriously I was feeling like a worthless, ugly piece of shit and I decided to use the services of a Stylist.

Gasp, horror!  Isn’t that something only rich, famous people do????

Well, no actually!

I always hesitate about mentioned this because last time I posted about it I had someone rip my head off and shit down my neck. She felt that I was ‘braggging’ about being able to afford one and that she didn’t realise I was so ‘shallow’ and how she was very disappointed in me. Yeah, well, I’m not bragging and I can honestly say, I actually think it’s embarrassing that I NEED the services of a stylist!  So, please if this offends you in any way – just click on the ‘unlike’ button on my Facebook page ……

Have you ever put clothes on and felt ‘blurgh’ yeah, well I used to do that ALL the time and after having a few sessions with Sam (www.vibrantconcepts.com.au) I now feel good about what I’m wearing!

Can I say this isn’t about being fashionable. I really don’t give a fuck about fashion and I have clothes in my wardrobe that are over 10 years old that I still wear.  This is about putting on clothes, regardless of what they are and feeling good in them.  I don’t care what people think about me in them, that’s not why I use Sam, it’s so I feel good about what I’m in.

Do you know how many different shades of pink there are and that you can’t wear all of them?  I think it’s amazing that you can wear one shade of pink and look sick and then another shade you just shine!  Go figure??!!!!

You see, I am one of those people that stand in front of a wardrobe full of clothes wondering what the hell to wear, because I just don’t have a clue.  Over three years Sam has reduced my wardrobe by a third but I now have more clothes to wear!  The best thing is, she lays out on the floor ‘outfits’ that I then take photos of and put in a folder. Then I just flick through the pictures each morning and go ‘hmmmm what will I wear today? Ooo that one!’ I then get the clothes out of the wardrobe with the shoes and accessories and I’m done – it takes a couple of minutes!

BLISS.   Especially, for someone that HATES shopping.  Did I mention that I hate shopping????!!!!!

So, yes, I’m embarrassed to say that I use a Stylist.  Yet, I’m not sorry.  I am happy to spend the money that Sam is worth, and believe me, she’s worth EVERY penny! Because with her help (and boy, did I need help!) she has created a wardrobe for me in which I feel good in every single item that I wear.

And I am worth that!  I am worth feeling good about myself.

I would call her (she offers online services) it doesn’t hurt to ask if this is something that you feel you need some help with ….. and no, I’m not getting any kickback at all, I just LOVE her!

Because, it’s important that you feel good about yourself.  It really is, you want to wake up each morning and feel confident and not self-conscious.  And best of all, I don’t have to think about clothes (yuk!) at all!

What is something that you do to feel good about yourself??
