How often do you put yourself first? Think about it. Are you giving yourself a break every day? Or are you waiting for the moment when you have finally got your dream body, your dream job, or simply when you have some free time to take care of yourself?
The truth is, there is no perfect moment. The time to show up for yourself is NOW.
Every day, you are representing yourself in the world. Whether scrolling through social media, meeting a friend for coffee, or even running errands, you tell yourself and the world who you are. And that message counts.
If you wouldn’t post a picture on Instagram with all the makeup you slept in, why would you do that to your everyday self? This isn’t about being perfect; it is about treating yourself with respect and making sure that you look the part you are trying to play.
When you dress with intention, care for yourself, and always show up as your future self, no matter your size, you exude the confidence, power, and energy of the life you are creating.
So, let me tell you how you can feel and look your best in your clothes regardless of size.
You don’t have to be fat to change your look. You shouldn’t have to. You shouldn’t have to wait to be thin or to lose weight to dress the way you want to. Start now. If you want to feel put together, invest in some stylish yet appropriate clothing. If you want to feel confident, wear clothes that will help you feel powerful. Wear the outfits of the person you want to be.
Action Step: Make a Pinterest board of your “Future Self” style and incorporate tiny parts of that wardrobe into your everyday life.
Forget about the size mark. A well-cut piece that suits your body type will always look better than a tightly compressed or oversized cloth. Tailoring is your best friend!
Action Step: Take one item from your closet that doesn’t fit quite right and get it tailored. See how one small change can make all the difference in how you feel.
Style and comfort go hand in hand. Anything that will make you feel comfortable will always include fabrics that do not restrict your movement. Some of the best pieces include flowy tops, structured but stretchy pants, and high-quality knits for a stylish yet comfortable look.
Action Step: Do a closet audit— are there items you avoid wearing because they’re uncomfortable? If so, remove them and replace them with items you love to wear.
It is amazing how accessories can transform a look and make even the most plain outfit look chic. A lovely pair of earrings, a good bag, or some nice shoes will enhance your look.
Action Step: Discover your go-to accessory for feeling put together. It could be red lipstick, a statement neckpiece, or a simple watch—whatever makes you feel like you.
A person’s size is not a measure of their confidence but a measure of how they carry themselves. You exude confidence when you walk into a room with your head up and your shoulders back. It is the energy that reflects, not the clothes.
Action Step: Practice power posing in front of the mirror for 30 seconds before leaving the house. It may appear ridiculous, but it can alter your mindset and help you walk into the day confidently.
When you put effort into how you present yourself, something magical happens, you start to believe in your own potential. You begin to portray the individual you are becoming.
So, let today be the day you decide to stop setting aside for the ‘perfect’ conditions. Dress in a way that makes you feel GOOD, take up space, and appear as if you are your future self because she is already inside you, waiting to shine.
Want to transform and unleash yourself? Then begin by changing one small aspect of your life today. If this post has helped you in any way, I would love it if you could share it with a friend who needs to read it. Let’s grow together!
Thank you for dropping by!
Love, Jax
