The Best Way to Boost Your Confidence

I’m sure you’ve heard it before: confidence is the best accessory. But truth be told, confidence can be hard to come by. I’m going to let you in on a little secret: confidence comes from within, but the best way to boost your confidence is to put on an outfit that makes you feel good about yourself.

Focus on what you love about your body and highlight that

The best way to boost your confidence is to focus on what you love about yourself, and dress in a way that flatters that aspect so you feel good in what you’re wearing.

Maybe you have super long legs. Put on a pair of high waisted pants or skirt to highlight your leg length!

If you love your eyes, put on a top in a color that compliments your eye color! Opt for either a complimentary color, or if your eyes are in the blue/green family, look for a top in a similar color to your eyes to really make them pop!

If you have a small waist, put on a belt that cinches at your waist to flatter your shape.

The key is to highlight what you love most so that you feel good. When you feel good about yourself, this confidents radiates to others.

Forget about size and focus on the fit of your clothing

No one is going to be looking at the tag on the inside of your clothing but you. If it bothers you that much, cut out the size tag once you purchase the clothing.

The number size is not what matters; it’s all about the fit. Getting the right sized clothing (either going up or down in size) will flatter your body better, which will in turn boost your confidence. I see a lot of people who are stuck on the number and forget about the fit, which results in them squeezing into a smaller size, and actually looking less flattering than if they were to go up to the correct size.

It’s always important to remember that fitted clothing is different than tight clothing. If something is tight, it will be bunched and gathered in the wrong areas which makes the garment lay incorrectly. Fitted clothing lays properly and compliments the body without discomfort and fabric distortion. This goes for clothing that is too large as well. If a garment is gaping or bunching in an area it shouldn’t, it is too big. This means that you should either get the item tailored to your body or get a smaller size.

Make a conscious decision to be confident in yourself, and dress in a way that is reflective of that

Never forget that you have the power to change how people see you. It’s really empowering when you realize that you control everything you put out there including how people see you and what perception you give off. Decide how you want other people to see you and the confidence you hold in yourself, and dress accordingly. If you want to be seen as a professional, wear professional clothing. It won’t only affect how people see you, but there’s something empowering about dressing “up.” It changes your demeanor and studies have shown that it influences the way we think.

It’s no secret that looking good correlates to feeling good about yourself, but the best way to boost your confidence is to put on an outfit that highlights what you love about yourself. This comes from within, so when you put on an outfit that reflects that self-love, it makes it easier to walk out into the world with confidence!
