I stay effortlessly beautiful, and getting compliments about my appearance makes me blush. Sometimes, my friends think it childish to always look forward to people's compliments, but I don't feel that way. I do not seek validation from anyone about my look because I know and appreciate myself. The compliments are usually a bonus, not the basis of my self-worth.
Due to my gorgeous appearance always, people around me believe that I spend a lot of money on clothes. Sometimes, they ask about the brands and even want to know where I shop, but after giving the information, some still don't believe me. My fashion hacks are quite simple, and yet, they make me appear expensive every time I step out of the house.
I am not ashamed to tell people that I patronize thrift shops because that's the best place to find cloth designs that aren't very common, so when I put them on, I am going to get questions like, Where did you get this fine material? because those materials or designs are hard to come by even in boutiques.
I have told someone before that the cloth was sent from abroad when she wouldn't agree with me that I got it from a thrift shop.
My favorite color.
I am an addict of black dresses, especially pants, leggings, jeans, shorts, and skirts, but not for underwear. Many people believe that people who wear black are lazy with laundry, but I wear black because it is my favorite color and it makes every dress look good on me.
Wardrobe essentials.
Black perfectly blends in with any color, so it is easy for me to rotate multiple dresses on my black skirts or trousers. With them, I keep my wardrobe space very free and not cluttered since I don't have to store too many skirts, leggings, or trousers.
I don't wear the skirts often, so there are just three of them for coperate dress in my wardrobe. I prefer the male style of dressing because it makes me look smart, and I can also move freely on the road or sit as I want in the bus, so I have more trousers.
Special occasions.
I wear gowns too and have a few of them in my wardrobe. I love gowns, maybe because my mom wears them a lot too, and I look good in them (I look good in every dress too.)
Every Friday when going for prayer, I wear a gown and use my hijab. Most of my gown was sewn by my fashion designer, and I must say that she's doing a great job.
Accessories.
I love using accessories like glasses, tiny earrings, and beads. They make me look super cool even though they don't cost much.
