Hello girls , lately I've been seeing you all making threads on school outfits , what to buy , how to do this/that. I love all your ideas , tips , ect. But why do you all care on the Dress To Impress?
The reason why I ask because so so so many post's about what to wear. I know to some beautylish girls it's annoying them.But I want to know why does looking so good is worth it.

Thank you

Well we all want to look good aha we don't wake up and are like well I want to look awful today (even though sometimes that's what ends up happening :p) but I think the girls are just looking for some ideas on how to look good with an outfit they bought or what to style certain things with.

Yea we all wanna look good no matter where we're going but it is really annoying seeing 8374 posts about the same things like why don't people just go to the ones that are already made instead of making new ones

And most of the time girls are not wearing things to impress guys or anything like that. Looking good, makes you feel good. 👍

Yeah, all these school posts are getting annoying lol. like none of us know what is in everyone's closet. they know what they like better than us, anyways. I get wanting to look good, but I feel like it's not hard to make an outfit on your own. I wonder how some people chose what to wear before they had beautylish haha. it'd be better if they showed us pieces they own or outfits they've put together so we can give opinions on outfits they actually have or outfit help based on an item they want to wear.

Most of the posters are young and going into middle or high school, and nobody wants to be that uncool kid or dress to casually when everybody else dresses up. It is annoying how many posts there are but I get it. When I was going into middle school I had no idea what to wear. I wanted to go from being a little kid to a teenager. Nobody tells you that a wardrobe change isn't what changes you and in all the movies it's they go shopping and now they're a new person lol.

And I also agree that no one should really put that much effort into trying to dress all fancy for the first day because no one is really going to remember it or actually care about how you look.. People need to realize its school and not a fashion show.

Lol my school had uniforms, be grateful you even get to wear your own clothes! Tbh I liked uniforms though lol. I understand why you'd try and look decent for your first day, I don't see anything wrong with those girls wanting to put their best foot forward but at the same time, like you said I'd keep it simple and comfortable, no reason to get all fancy.

I think some care because they don't want to be thought of as "ugly." They want people to notice them and think they're pretty, especially the younger teens here on beautylish.

I honestly like looking good for myself. Whenever I go to school in a hoodie and sweats I get so tired and lazy, but when I try to look cute I feel way better about myself, I'm able to focus more, and I get lots of compliments! ☺️

Well jeez , how good are you trying to be?? If we all go on the Style Sec. of BL right now it's almost all about school , and some isn't about it , it's about what to wear period.There's a few people who ask: What to wear to Gym , what to wear to the mall , what to wear to camping. I got stuck on the mall , because aren't you going to try clothes if your going shopping? To me , personally , it's useless. But I care about all of you so I answer the best way I can.No matter how annoyingly it is...

Its good to make a good impression and it can make you feel good about your self. when someone compliments what your wearing.

BTW , I'm the fashion freak! I love looking nice. But I don't ask what to wear everyday :'( I swear I saw like 4 post , on what to wear to the gym. And don't let me get started on what to put in your book bag or what book bag should I get :'''(

There are some cases where people dress up everyday. I literally own only 1 pair of loose sweatpants and probably 5 T-shirts. My closet is all fancy and dressy clothes. Thats just my style, dressed up. Being completely honest though, whenever I dressed down I would feel uncomfortable because I'm just not use to being so laid back in my clothing choices.

Some girls are still trying to find their style and need help, and there's nothing wrong with that. I wish I had girls like all of you on BL to help me find my style when I was younger, I found it now. And other times they want to know what's "In" to fit in. I know it can get annoying, but schools going to start soon and it's going to be over.

This is my last year of high school and I want to look good. But also, no matter where I go in public, I always try to look my best.

But it is getting irritating with all of the school posts about the same things

I'm the type of person to feel comfortable. Wearing make up and wearing heels isn't my fort? lol. Maybe to church or somewhere fancy but definitely not school.

For those who have less confidence , you shouldn't have that type of feeling at that age. Be yourself , Dress what you feel and will be the most liked person ever. It scares me sometimes because some of you have the potential to make something of yourselves.

But I'm mostly talking about BL with the posting about school and what type of clothes to wear to the gym or mall. @ Elizabeth When going to the gym you should have the sense to wear less clothing because you will get hot lol. This one girl asked how her hair and makeup should be...to a GYM. I don't think she had gotten any post though. But I'm not trying to be rude , it's just all the post with the schooling and supplies lol.

To me, I honestly don't find the first day any different from any other day. I'm seeing a lot of people for the first time in a while, sure, but it's not like I'm making a first impression.

I think a lot of it has to do with the girls self esteem. Wanting to make a "good impression" really just boils down to them wanting to be seen as attractive, pretty, fashionable, etc. by their peers. That's why they put a big effort Into their appearance because they want that seal of approval that says they are good looking or whatever else they want to be seen as. The thing they don't realize is that looking good isn't the only thing that should make you feel good. You should strive to be happy with yourself just the way you are, you should work to find yourself and realize that you're perfect the way you are, that's the real secret to feeling good and happy, and having confidence. Yes it's nice to look good of course and everyone has something they use that makes them feel good like makeup, clothes, having nice hair but you shouldn't care so much about the superficial/materialistic things. Anyway that's my little rant :P.
