Hello all,
This week I'm posting about creating our daily outfits. Stick with me here!
I recently dragged my bag of sweaters and warm hiking clothes downstairs and dragged my summer shorts and shirts back upstairs to the attic. So naturally (if you're anything like me...and I know I am!) I got sucked into online fashion videos about how to style sweaters for this year- because I'm not buying anything new- I'm just trying to wear what I have and still look somewhat current.
And, wow! I found one of the most intentionally diverse fashion videos I've ever seen. Right away I noticed the variety of body sizes in these videos- then I noticed the skin tone diversity, then I noticed the age diversity, the workplace/style diversity, disability/ability diversity, and the socioeconomic diversity- it really was astounding and so out of the ordinary. That does not happen by accident. And every one of their videos has the same level of variety.
I hope that all of you watch this short video (skip the commercial) by Hannah Louise Poston titled "this is why your outfit feels "off"". You might be interested in fashion and how to feel more comfortable in your clothes. As she says - "unless you are a nudist- we all need to wear clothes"!
But even if you aren't interested in fashion, please watch it to see how naturally, seemingly effortlessly, and beautifully she makes sure we see a view of our diverse world. I found it inspiring, and I know you will too.
All the best,
Holly
