Most people walk around in shorts and a t-shirt. Occasionally you see jeans or a tank top or both, but very few people walk around in dresses or fully planned outfits unless they're not just going to class. In the winter, I'm expecting to see a lot of sweat pants and sweat shirts and hoodies. Toms, flip-flops, Chacos, and Sperrys rule the feet. There are a few other shoes, but you won't see anyone walking around in heels or some other painful contraption. But despite all this casualty, everyone still looks good.
You see, dear reader, there is more to looking good than the clothes you wear. There is also the way you hold yourself and how you take care of your body. If you wash your hair and brush it every day, you can get away with throwing it in a pony tail or sloppy bun and it will still look good. If you wash your face, put lotion on your skin, trim your nails, all things that really only take a few seconds, you will look good! But here's the weird part: none of that stuff works if you still feel unattractive.
That's right, ladies and gentlemen and everyone in between, confidence. Confidence is quite possibly the most attractive feature on a person. However, few people can gain confidence in their appearance by simply rolling out of bed and looking in the mirror every day. For most people I know, confidence is gained by taking care of your body by practicing good grooming in whatever ways you feel are necessary. Some of my friends straighten their hair every day, I just let mine air dry when I shower and brush it every day before I go out. I have friends that don't feel complete without a little mascara. Personally, I like to take a few minutes every week to file and buff my finger nails because I think it's important for my hands to look good. Whatever floats your boat! Just make sure to find what you need to do to feel good about yourself and do it. Once you feel clean and attractive, everyone else will think you're gorgeous too.
