How do I get the confidence to wear what I want? I’m super nervous and self conscious, but I hate what I’ve been wearing and I want to feel that euphoria of wearing clothes I’ve actually chosen and like

FAKE IT TIL U MAKE IT. literally the only way that worked for me. I know this seems super silly but literally give urself some time everyday to maybe put on a cute outfit u wouldnt usually be comfy wearing and just listen to some music that makes u feel good and pretend ur in an edit or something. U gotta pretend ur the hottest to finally start believing u are. A lot of it boils down to realizing nothing is that serious and nobody rlly cares what ur dressing up like!

Find people with the same style. I don’t care if it’s here or Reddit or a club or friends, fine someone you can trust will complement a fire fit. Then wear the fit somewhere with them, around less strangers. Acclimate slowly. It’s not easy but now I’m at the point where I’m comfortable dressing in fun ways. Not all the way there but I will be someday

wear what u like with fake confidence and ppl will begin to believe it, once people start to believe it u naturally will follow

But how do I get comfortable doing that outside of my room?
