We all know it can be a daunting picking outfit for a particular event or moment, and while most of the time we’ll think of a wedding, birthday, christening or even Halloween, we also need to prepare for the gruesome events – break-ups. A good outfit can save us, they can also be the daily reminder of why we may never venture to a certain colour, cut or brand, again. This is why we must choose carefully when selecting this particular outfit – it could be the reason he calls you back or more importantly so, the reason he never calls you again.
It is a universally acknowledged fact that breakups are worse than public speaking, sky diving without a parachute, listening to Justin Bieber, being allergic to everything and listening to your neighbour mow their lawn at 8am, on a Sunday. HOWEVER, that does not mean they are always dubbed as nauseating, sometimes they are liberating – jolting us onto a newfangled sanguine path that leads to a bed of white roses and chocolate-covered candy. Sometimes break-ups are essential for self-discovery and the demise of pain. So when we decide to pull the plug, cut the cord and change the oil, we must make certain we look hotter than The Sahara whilst doing so.
Here are a few pieces that have been strung together for specific situations, dependent on weather, hour, intimacy, culture and character.
‘The Fashionista’ look will inspire a presence of ‘I came here to talk’, and will usually be dominated by a statement piece – so if that pubescent ex of yours split blood on your white-sheeted heart, this is the look for you.
‘The Boss’ look will entice your ex or at least make them feel inclined to get on all fours and start panting like a puppy that wants a treat. With the assertive attire, this look elicits feelings of negotiation or business – as interviews are all something we all want to look our best for; this style represents YOUR EXS interview, where terms and negotiations will be indefinitely cut short.
‘The Chic’ look will convey somewhat of a dazed vibe, one that will perhaps be worn when the relationship was never serious to begin or resembled a fast-burning candle on a very windy day. It offers energy that allows each party involved to catch some air and maybe even share a whiskey and cigar successively.
‘The sweetheart’ look offers your ex a soft landing after the big blow; almost like a cushioning. It will often be pastel colours or softer breathable materials that force out a smile in even the saddest of moments.
However, REMEMBER my loves – at the end of the day it is all about the inner shine, these looks are an outline of what will encourage that backbone you ALREADY have! So put on your best smile, and go show some teeth.
