Mira’s Closet: 4/21/14: What do clothes say?

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation:What a person wears doesn’t define them, but sometimes you can learn a lot about a person from their attire in certain situations. When someone who typically wears bright colors suddenly shows up in something dark or black, they may be trying to make a statement or come off more serious or stern than usual. For someone who wears dark clothing a lot, when they want to impress someone or seem more inviting they may try some lighter colors. But that’s just colors- what about styles. Do different styles say something about the person wearing them? I once had a friend who refused to wear jeans unless some sort of manual labor was involved. To him, denim lacked class. That’s what I like about fashion; there’s something for everyone even if everything isn’t for someone in particular, just like this blog. 🙂

Mira’s Closet: 3/24/14: Perception

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation: Well, I guess I dropped the ball a bit here. I was late to posting this update because I set my clock wrong. 🙁 In any case, here’s what I have to share. Perception: the very meaning of this word leaves open many possible interpretations. People don’t always see things, or observe things, mostly they perceive them. They see things the way they want to see them. Usually, when it comes to fashion, what you see is what you get, but not always. However, with writing and most other art forms, you can be as clear as you want to, but others may still perceive your work in their own special way.

Mira’s Closet: 2/24/14: Versatility

MClosetMira’s no fashionista, but she definitely has her own sense of style…
And now here’s an update on just that.

First an observation: I’m constantly working to make myself a versatile writer, but I sometimes wonder if that means I need to be a versatile person. I like to think that I have many varied interests, but do I really…and when it comes to fashion do I play it safe or am I more daring? One thing I can say is that I’m not driven by labels. Labels are nice if they just happen to appear on something I like, but I wonder; if clothes really do make the person, then what does my wardrobe say about me? Who knows? That’s why I’m a writer not a fashionista. However, when I do want to look extra special, I at least know where I can go to receive guidance.
