Stepping Out of My Fashion Comfort Zone

I have generally leaned towards the more conservative side of my clothing choices.  Some of this probably stemmed from not liking my body or being comfortable in my own skin.  The other side is just that I really like some of the styles that are more conservative (vintage at heart).  This year though, I have been pushing myself out of my fashion comfort zone. 

It has been a little terrifying but also extremely fun.  I always see pictures of women in clothes and think I LOVE THAT and then I proceed to buy clothing that is the same as all my other clothing.  To get out of this rut I have just simply been going for it. 

I really love the sheer tops with the bra underneath.  I think this look is so chic and beautiful.  I am a size 14 and have been working on getting fit and finally just decided that I was going to buy myself one of these tops and I am going to rock it! I also purchased a second body suit that is open in the back and has a plunging mesh neckline.  I haven’t worn this yet but will be soon. 

Getting out of our comfort zone is always terrifying.  It doesn’t matter if it is something as simple as your clothes or as big as going for your dreams.  It is scary and generally not something we like to do. 

I especially find wearing daring pieces of clothing intimidating because there is always someone who is going to judge you.  Yes, even with my work on self-love and confidence, it still hurts when someone judges me.  It is a normal reaction as a human being to not enjoy being judged by other people. 

I also decided that I am not going to worry about what other people think of my clothing because I am wearing it for me.  I am wearing it because I think it looks beautiful and I enjoy how I feel in it.  Those are the feelings that really matter.  The rest is just noise. 

I am going to continue with my daring clothing choices.  I am currently looking for a matching two piece set that I really love.  It has been a challenge, but I will find something, and I will rock it this summer. 
In the wise words of my husband, JUST OWN YOUR OUTFIT!
