What do you like to wear/ What is your preferred clothing to wear most? Do you feel empowered by certain clothes?
Depends, i more often wear plain everyday clothes plain t short with jeans and a hoodie, i wear a black jean jacket during winter, plan on buying leather one. I love to wear suits too. I wear emeric skate shoes or iron cap boots, got some clean black shoes for the suits ocasion :)
I wear different styles of clothing for different occasions.
Here is a general idea of what I wear:
I rarely ever wear skirts or dresses, but there are a few odd occasions where I've worn one. This is a dress I really like:
What I want, but haven't got yet:
I'm finding it more and more difficult to maintain a constant theme in my wardrobe.
As a teenager, I lived in a town in which femininity was considered an atrocious crime. I'd therefore dress to accentuate my femininity. I was a gymnast and I entered puberty late, which meant that one day I was flat-chested, and the next, I measured 35-25-35. That made gymnastics more challenging, but it made it far less challenging to obtain the hysterical responses to my outfits that I craved. I believed, and still do, that if you're living in a free country, you should be able to wear whatever the hell you wanted. Girls in my town were too afraid to wear skirts that were higher than their knees or dresses that showed off their arms for fear that they'd be howled at or even physically attacked. I considered that disgraceful and rebelled against it every chance I got. I also wore one of my mother's rings on each hand because the danger of walking the streets with thousands of dollars' worth of jewellery on my person got me off. I figured that if I were ever successfully mugged, my mugger would never get away with being able to pawn the jewellery, and it'd be back within my mother's clutches within twenty-four hours.
In the corporate world, I've found it difficult to adjust. I no longer work - I don't have to - but when I did, I compensated by wearing the finest clothing I could obtain. Silk and lace with monstrously high stilettos. The required conformity was nowhere near as bad as it was in the town in which I grew up, but it itched at me nonetheless. We women have more options than men do in the corporate world, of course (y'all are forced to wear three-piece suits and ties regardless of the temperature, and I don't think that's fair), but it still bothered me that I couldn't wear a mini skirt to work without having someone whinge about it. I once wore a maxi-dress that happens to show a lot of decolletage, and the ensuing hysteria almost got me fired. I worked in a back-of-office role, where no one could even see me!
Now that I'm about to start med school, I'm going to be faced with another adjustment. Fuck it - I'll probably just go in on my first day wearing a white silk dress with black leather ankle boots.
