For years, I’ve been fighting against what feels natural to me because I felt pressure

to it. When I used to get dressed to go out I would put on a T-shirt and sneakers and feel great, but when I would walk into a bar and every girl around me was in heels and a mini dress, I often felt like the odd girl out. Anytime I was “dressed down” I would be told that I’d look better if I had makeup on, or was asked, “Is that really what you’re wearing？” So I learned to qualify it. “Oh, I didn’t bring anything nicer with me.” "Sorry I’m not really dressed. I came straight from work." The truth is that I feel comfortable in jeans and I don’t like to change before I go out. There's nothing wrong with that. Then why did I feel like there was？ Part of it has to do with clothing options marketed to women and girls. What was available “for just us girls”？ Usually it’s pink, frilly, or feminine. But I never felt those things were made for me or appealed to me. I decided to stop letting it get to me. In the past when I would get dressed for a date, I would try on multiple outfits. The first was what I wanted to wear on my date. The second was what my friends would tell me to wear. As I stood in front of the mirror, I would feel the frustration well up. I never want a guy that would want me in heels all the time. So I’d take off the dress that I had on — the one I thought I should wear — and put on what I was actually most comfortable wearing. And you know what？ As soon as I did, I realized how great I looked. Girls who look unapologetically themselves are the best type of girls.
