Stepping Outside Your Comfort Zone

You can apply stepping outside your comfort zone to almost every aspect of your life. It’s something that can be extremely hard to do, however if you do you often feel great afterwards. Sometimes I get stuck in a fashion rut always wearing similar items, when I notice this happening I try to take a few risks with fashion choices and rediscover my personal style. Often I get inspiration from other bloggers, however a lot of the time even though I have fallen in love with their outfit I question “will it suit me? I love it but it’s not really my style is it? It looks great on them but won’t look as good on me”. I go from falling in love with an outfit to completely putting myself off it for myself, however when I notice this I do try to push myself to purchase what I love and then decide how I feel about it once I’ve tried it on. A lot of the time when I’m wearing the clothes I do end up liking them on me, although it can sometimes take a while to feel comfortable as some things take a little getting used to especially if it’s quite outside my comfort zone. I came across these floral printed trousers on ASOS and thought why not order them, I can always send them back if I change my mind so that’s exactly what I did. I do prefer how they look on however I must admit that I think it will take me some time to get used as they have quite a bold print. They’re one of those pieces that I love and just think I need to wear them a few times to adjust and feel comfortable. As they are very bold I thought I would keep the rest of the outfit quite plain with block colours, the top is from J.D.Y. and the blazer is from Topshop. Let me know if you try to step outside of your comfort zone with fashion too!
