#RainesReveals Does Dressing Presentably Every Day Really Matter?

There seems to be an unfortunate trend in today's society of individuals going about their day in sleepwear and yoga pants. Now before I discuss the issues with this, let me start by saying that this is not about judging people for what they wear. This is about how our individual choices affect us long-term as well as affecting those around us.



There seems to be a focus on self-love and self-care lately and it is wonderful to see. What some don't seem to realize is that this is directly related to getting dressed in real clothes every day. When we wake up in pajamas, spend the day in pajamas, and then go to sleep in more pajamas; it can have a negative effect on our psyche.

What is the message that we are telling ourselves? That we're not worth the effort? This can permeate other areas of our lives. If we can't muster the energy to get dressed, how can we find the energy to be social or have the motivation to reach for and attain our goals? Not to mention the fact that the monotony of it can become depressing after a while.

It may seem like such a superficial thing, but I implore you to try it before you knock it. The results of being presentable always can be experienced very quickly. You can feel a positive energy develop and it radiates out from you to those you come into contact with as well, including friends and family.

Now there are different levels of dressing presentably and it doesn't have to be something that is uncomfortable or stuffy. Everyone has their own unique style and a way to have fun with it is to choose clothing that will allow that wonderful style to shine! Whether you prefer casual or elegant, it is easy to find the right options for yourself through the unlimited sources that we have at our disposal. I have found it to be most helpful to get rid of worn out or stained clothing so they're not even options that I have when getting dressed.

The main objection that I hear whenever I present this topic is from people who are concerned about messing up their clothing. It's easy to ask "whats the point?" when you're going to be home all day and you have small children to look after. To this I say that aprons have been a lifesaver for me. I wear them when I'm cooking, cleaning, doing craft time, and even gardening. It's a simple way to protect your clothes while also showing yourself the self-love that you deserve.

If you make dressing presentable every day a priority, I would love to hear about it. If you haven't yet, please share your thoughts on this post as well. Let's show ourselves that we are worth the effort! If you need assistance developing a manageable wardrobe for your personal style, I would love to help!
