There are a few select situations in which it’s important to look more conservative – for example, the funeral of a highly religious family member or an interview for an office job at a conservative company – and for those situations, it’s good to have some inoffensive basics in your closet. For example, I have a black pencil skirt, a pair of black pinstriped trousers, and some solid-colored T-shirts and cardigans, all of which are suitable for more conservative environments.
But for everyday life, there’s no reason why you shouldn’t dress in the way that makes you happy. Anyone who judges you can go fuck themselves, because they’re not the ones you’re dressing to please – you are.
