Wardrobe Expansion
I want to be more confident in my body through my clothes. I've had the same style for six years; the same wardrobe as i did when i started high school (im 20 now). I'm looking for any advice from someone who's been in a similar boat as me. Below is a bit of info about my preferences for clothing and other things (it's a bit long im sorry ;-;)
My selection of clothes currently consists of graphic tees, baggy jeans, cargo shorts and occasionally a flannel or a hoodie, most of them in black. I want to incorporate more color into my clothes; darkness is nice, but you cant always be dark. I am a big fan of any cool colors (blue, green, purple) and any article with these colors would be lovely.
I am not a fan of scratchy or stretchy textures. If possible, all of the clothing must be cotton (some polyester is okay). I also do not like when clothing tugs on my body. If something hugs tight, it must be for a purpose (to look hot is a purpose in some cases).
I like when my clothing reflects my interests and bits of my personality. I am a big fan of star wars, dbz, minecraft and tactical fps games (etc). My go to has been graphic tees but i know that there is better ball knowledge to pull from. I think that it would be lovely to have clothing FROM various IPs that i like (star wars jacket, turtle school branded item). Another lovely idea would be to use certain pieces of jewelery or charms from various things (i already have a silver time ring from dbs) and small things like patches or trinkets to decorate my bag.
speaking of ..
Two months ago i hand stitched a dark grey denim bag from a pair of torn pants (hilarious story). I want to be able to incorporate this bag into as many outfits as possible since i use it very often.
Lastly, if anybody has ideas on what to wear based on body type, im about 5 foot 8 with a bit of a stocky build and born male. i dont have too much body fat and exercise regularly (and shower frequently dw). I mostly present male but i would love to add a bit of a lady's touch every now and then. As of right now i mostly dress more femme when i go out to parties or shows, or when i feel like it. I'd like to dress more femme in general to make it feel a bit more balanced.
I can't think of anything else at the moment but if i can think of anything else i'll add it in an edit or a comment or smth. and thank you for reading all this !!! i know it's a lot but if you read it all i'd appreciate any help. thank you !!
