Why Style Matters
As women today, our self esteem is under
siege. Woman are constantly holding themselves up to impossible
standards of beauty and are subjected to countless tacit
messages that equate success and achievement with body weight,
hair color and designer bag size. Even further, women measure
themselves against even broader societal standards, the
"fallout" of Feminism, which can make them feel
as if they are failing in their every day lives. How can
style and fashion, notoriously criticized for creating these
standards, actually help build one's self-esteem? By using
style as a means of self-expression, we can transcend external
standards and create our own individual ones.
