Fashion Affirmations | Fashion Phoenix

Like eyes, clothes are windows to the soul. How a person puts an outfit together, the colors they choose, and their signature style are like clues to a puzzle about who they are on the inside. The fact that you rarely see two people dressed alike speaks to the fact that fashion informs us of one’s uniqueness. Even though fashion trends can be frivolous, fashion as a means of self expression is not.

This week, in addition to reciting your affirmation, think about what you want your clothes to say about you. Be guided by your style goals and personality when choosing your outfit each day.

Fashion is Love Lesson – Today’s Fashion Affirmation

No comments

I love who I am on the inside and out.

I accept my physical imperfections and am happy with my body as it is. I don’t compare myself to others, nor do I go to extraordinary lengths to look like the women I see in the media. I don’t think that I would be happier if I was just taller, thinner, prettier or younger. I like the extraordinary person I am. I strive for excellence, not perfection. I seek opportunities to know myself better, and develop my talents and abilities. I understand that life is about living wholeheartedly.

This week’s affirmation focuses on self acceptance. The theme of acknowledging your strengths and weaknesses resonates in the words of Hugh Prather who said: “Unless I accept my faults I will most certainly doubt my virtues”.
