Open the doors of any closet in my house and mountains of
clothes will fall on you, not including the mountain that is already scattered
on the floor after going through fifteen outfits on what I like to call a “fat
day”. No matter what I put on I don’t feel good, I feel ugly and dull.
We all know that feeling where we do not feel like we look
good in anything and feel like just pulling a bag over our head or want to
crawl back into bed and drown in self pity. Most of it is just in your head and
the battle will be more with your overly critical brain. I have several ways
that I use to combat this horrid feeling and hope that these tips can help
readers overcome their “fat days”.
- · Style your hair properly on that day. Good hair makes for a good day.
- · Wear at least one item of clothing or accessory that you feel extremely comfortable in like your favourite scarf or pair of jeans.
- · If you are wearing a plain outfit give it flair with something daring like a bright pair of shoes, but not something that will make you feel self-conscious.
- · Grey, black and dark blue flatter all body types.
- · If, like me, you don’t really wear makeup it is a good day to apply makeup.
- · Designer labels don’t always make you feel that you are looking your best, so if there is an item of clothing that is a bit on the cheaper side which flatters you, wear it.
- · As strange as it may sound, wear your most expensive underwear. Nobody needs to know, but you will feel good.
- · Take time during the day to look at things that inspire you, whether it means surfing the web for gardening tips or walking through an art gallery, your mood will lift.
As tempting as it is to be sulky and stay in bed, get up and
smile on your “fat days” and nobody will notice your mood and you will most
probably forget that you are in a foul mood.
Peace and love
Clara
