Hi there, Lovelies:)
You know what is super important to me as a millennial woman? Being able to express myself and my individuality; This is something I pride myself in, and I always encourage others to do the same. Gone are the days when we couldn’t express ourselves. If there is a time self-expression is key, it is now. I live for moments when I wake up in the morning and my fiance is getting ready for work and I’m getting ready for my day. I crank the music up, dance around in my Perfect Coverage ComfortFlex Fit® Wirefree Bra and Ultra Light Lace Hipster underwear while making the bed. That is me expressing myself in the presence of my fiance. Being a fun, independent, and happy woman. You should hear me singing with the toothbrush in my mouth while brushing my teeth-Haha!
I work from home most days and that also means I need to be comfortable. I’m always happy when I get to work from home. Days like that makes me think about how times have changed. I can lounge around on my computer wearing a Hanes Long-Sleeve Crewneck T-Shirt and Cool Comfort Cotton Sporty Boy Brief underwear. I feel not only comfortable, but also confident while getting my work done and; celebrating a productive day.
Hanes also keeps me comfortable outside my home. Of course wearing their amazing undergarments but did you know they have comfortable active-wear, like this ComfortWash Garment Dyed Sweatshirt ? So, when I need to fuel up (aka coffee) or a little breather from working at home, I throw on my sweatshirt and head to my favorite local coffee shop to finish working or meet up with friends. I love comfortable and chic #ootd looks and pairing this sweater with my black ripped jeans and comfy shoes makes for one comfortable, modern look.
Here are my 5 tips to Confident & Comfortable Expressing Yourself:
1. Wear what feels comfortable for you- you may think you have to wear certain clothes just because it is trendy or what others’ expect of you. You don’t have to. Be yourself and wear what really makes you feel comfortable. It may be that you prefer leggings over jeans or sweatshirts over cardigans. It is OK!
2. If you’ve wanted to try something new-make-up, clothing, hair style. Ask a friend or family member you trust and who you know won’t judge you for wanting the change. Have a conversation about why you want that change and be open and honest. You’d be surprised by how supportive that person will be and will help you build the confidence to express yourself.
3. Sometimes, just go ahead and DO IT. Ask no permission, just take the leap and do something for yourself that will make you happy. It’s a true form of expression-you are following your desires and no one else’s.
4. Sometimes we want to express ourselves but we aren’t even sure why or how. This has happened to me and I find that writing down why I love myself and why I am worthy of fulfilling my own dreams helps. Seeing and reading these very same things I wrote down really boost my confidence. So yes, I’m going to post that bikini photo on Instagram or I am going to write a blog post wearing undergarments for the entire world to see if they want. If that isn’t confidence, then I don;t know what is 🙂
5. Support others. Yes, genuinely supporting others will really make you feel good about yourself and this will lead to you feeling confident enough to express yourself. It’s that good karma energy you will attract.
