X is for eXellence

I had a bit of a bounce around with this one. But it ties in with our next letter Y. X is for excellence. Always strive to dress your best. I know that it has been said multiple times, but your wardrobe is a billboard of who you are. Unfortunately, we take this for granted.
We live in a culture that says “don’t judge”! The truth is we do judge and we fail to truly grasp how important that judgement is.
Always dress well. Take the effort. Why? Because people will offer you more respect if you take the time to look presentable, than if you just show up in track pants and a t shirt. An extra minute or two a day is all you need to look presentable.
Would you be more apt to approach a person in a denim skirt, graphic tee, flip flops and her hair thrown back into a pony tail, or would you be more apt to approach a lady in a denim skirt, blouse, flats, and her hair brushed and styled? We’d all rather approach the lady who took those extra couple of minutes on her appearance.

How we dress, whether you have realized it or not, is a statement about how we feel about ourselves.
We assume that a woman who wears clothes that are revealing is insecure about herself, but a woman who constantly wears clothes that are far too large for her build and shape sends the same message- she is just as insecure. When you wear clothes that are modest and fit you well, then you show yourself and other that you respect yourself.
What I am trying to say is, take pride in yourself. Take pride in your appearance and cease slopping dressing. Take those extra couple of minutes to make yourself look presentable.

So swap those tees and sneakers for a blouse and a pair of flats or heels.
Take a few minutes to style your hair instead of swishing it back into a pony tail or wearing it long.
Add some accessories to your outfit and your hair!
Tuck in your blouses.
