Monday Blues…Fashion Rules!

By LeeAndria Ross

    Well, it’s Monday again! This is the day that most people always seem to dread. It was just Friday and the weekend had just began. Where did the time go? Monday also seems to be the day on which most people slack because they are drained and tired from the weekend. Alternatively, I’ve learned that starting the week off with a positive, refreshed mindset and attitude will only lead to a prosperous week. By taking control of our attitude, we have the power to control how our week will end.

    We not only have the ability to control our attitude, but we have the capacity to control our fashion. Amazing enough, the way we dress can have a major effect on our day. Have you ever heard of the phrase “Dress for success”? I have personally experienced an improvement in my attitude and the way I walk just by dressing the part. When you take the time in the morning to put on an outfit that compliments you, your confidence is maximized throughout the day. As the saying goes,“when you look good, you will feel good.” No matter what time of day, choosing the right outfit is very vital. Ask yourself, ‘Does it demand attention? Does it demonstrate assurance and boldness?’ Selecting the appropriate ensemble can be as simple as picking out a bold statement jacket. Wearing a splash of pop is always a quick way to standout with bursting confidence. So, what kind of attitude will you wake up with next Monday? What coordinates will you pair? Will you demand attention? Will your week be prosperous? The choice is totally up to YOU. Take control!

Happy Monday,
