Zara

I used to find no value at all in fashion. I used to think of clothes as simply a way to cover up. I thought that spending a lot of money on a wardrobe was a waste of a very valuable resource. To some extent, I still believe these things.

However, my views have changed considerably. I've realized how much power a nice outfit can have. It's a great feeling to go out and know that you look great in whatever you're wearing.

I've also realized how much of a statement you can make through what you choose to wear as well as what you choose not to wear.

I used to hate the idea that you could learn anything about a person by the way that they dressed. I didn't think that there was any way you could know anything at all about someone because they dressed a certain way.

I've learned that you really can learn about someone by looking at the clothes they choose and choose not to wear. You just need to be careful at the way you're analyzing things.

All these thoughts about fashion had me wondering what my clothes said about me. I had this lengthy and personally deep description about it, but I unfortunately forgot a few things. Here's a few things that I remember.

The outfits I wear definitely fit my personality. It tells the story of a kid that's unsure of himself, someone who's still trying to figure out his identity. Sometimes I like to put out this facade that I'm rich. Sometimes I take pride in the fact that I don't have very much money at all. I'm not someone who dresses nice all the time. I do, however, like to delve into the world of higher fashion every once in a while. For the most part, I value comfort over everything else.

I'm really happy that I was able to break through and find another way to build on my identity. I hope to build on that and find other ways to find what makes me, me.
