Okay, so this section and this particular title is a little cliche. But, the more you hear something, the more you will adopt the philosophy. So it's a necessity to introduce why I feel this section is just as--no make that even more--important than the other features.

I won't bore you with my whole life story. However, I do want to mention how important loving your body is to loving your closet. Forget all those "figure flattering" tips. Forget trying to match your body to one of those four shape categories. We aren't all pears, boy shape, curvy or hourglass.

Our bodies fill so many more categories. When we start to label our "shape" we become obsessed yet again with the mold. I tried to keep telling myself I was square shaped--boobs, a butt and an unbelievably short torso all in a 5'4" package.

The more I tried to fit a label, the more delusional I became about what I saw in the mirror.

Only recently have I been able to turn my closet into my friend. Now, I have always loved clothes. I would buy things that looked like me, but I never had the confidence to actually wear it anywhere. If I did, I felt like everyone was staring--for the wrong reason.

My closet became my would-be life. If I had a fancier job, if I had that great interview, if I went out to a shwanky club. In reality, I preferred staying in wearing my hoodies and sweats. To be honest, I was hiding from a plethora of things: post-grad life, aimlessness, but mostly myself.

Oddly enough, on the right day with the right outfit, I felt ready to go anywhere.

That's what I want everyone to feel like all the time: ready for anything. Dressed both in body and mind to take on the world.

Unfortunately, your perception doesn't always align with reality and vice versa. This is the space to realign yourself.

This is your magic "mirror, mirror on the wall." Get an honest look into your insecurities, your assets, your triumphs and your failures and above all, your self.
