ever heard of the self-consistency theory? Put forward by author and psychologist A. Korman in the 1970s, it states that people behave and perform on a level that is consistent with their self-image.
Basically, if you look good, you'll feel good and will show off your best side and abilities. But your wardrobe and style choices are also your magical liquid luck for attracting the right people to you.
Showcasing you! How you style yourself is a golden opportunity to put your personality on display. Think of it as marketing your 'brand'. Humans are visually intelligent and discern a lot about someone from their appearance. Be it your aura, your mood or how you behave towards someone else, preconceived judgements are all obtained through that all-important first impression.
While we can't run up to our crush and start blabbing about our quirks or interests, we can show them. Throw on an accessory or item of clothing that resonates with who you are and you will be telling people more about you. In this way, fashion is also a great way to connect with yourself and learn about who you are, so go ahead and experiment!
