Be True To Yourself!

Some of you have seen the first page on facebook, but you blog readers are lucky enough to get the FULL manifesto by Julia, on the subject of individuality, especially in terms of fashion.  Of course, Julia has acquired several articles of clothing from Justice as hand-me-downs, and she wears them indiscriminately, but I think the main point of her opinion piece is that she doesn't wear those clothes in order to SEEM COOL.  I'm proud of my little individualist. I have a feeling that if she had been born a century or so earlier, she would have totally been a suffragette:





Boys and men reading the above, take note: you do NOT need to try to do something athletic to seem manly.  You may get hurt trying to show off your athletic prowess.  Just sit on the couch and eat potato chips and drink beer and BE TRUE TO YOURSELF. 

Girls and women, don't shop at Justice unless you truly like the clothes.  But be careful of the glitter and sparkles, because they might not be comfortable.  Or be like me, and wear the same clothes you've had in your closet for a decade because you have no time for and interest in going to the mall.  That works too.  BE TRUE TO YOURSELF. 

Well done, Julia, reminding us that we all need to love ourselves just as we are.
