Does your dress speak for your personality or your state of mind?

The way I dress definitely speaks for my state of mind. I've discovered that I wear darker colors when I'm in a somber mood or when I need to concentrate, but when I feel free and happy, I wear lighter colors. I also tend to wear more trendy clothing when I'm in a good mood, with more traditional styles (or even old fashioned ones!) when I'm not in as good a mood.

hmmm i am not really sure, i wear black all the time, that is to say all my clothing is black, i have maybe 4 or 5 red or grey shirts and that is it. i am also a metalhead who has sometimes been mistaken for a goth. i love the color black i am not even too sure why, i guess i just like the look. so whether i am happy or sad i wear black. in all honesty though, if i was forced to wear anything either than the black then that indeed would be a most sad day for me.

In this respect, I would go for function rather than form. I mean, I dont wear specific colors because it reflects my mood or state of mind on that day. I choose the color depending on how tan I got from playing outdoors and the weather. I mean, if I got really tan, I avoid wearing colors that make me seem even darker. I mostly go for solid colors as well or a good solid background with a cool graffiti print somewhere on the shirt. Im not sure if that would fit into my personality or something but the print on the shirt would cause sometimes its a statement tee.LOL

it definitely speaks my state of mind. i like yellow with little prints when i feel perky and outgoing, white blouses with dark skirts when am feeling businesslike, i like baby pink and light blue when am happy. dark colors when i am adventurous, etc. guess my mind can be easily read? ann

dress always speak of the personality of a person mainly the shoes if you are in a formal dress and you are wearing the dirty shoes.then every one will judge not by your formal dress but by the shoes.in todays world good formal dress also tells your state of mind.the most common example in this real world is between the beggar and the rich person .anyone from us who is the rich person by seeing their formal dress

Hey there. I have never really thought about whether my clothing reflects my state of mind. I love to wear feminine clothes that make me feel womanly and sexy if I can afford to. I have so many comfy and cheaper clothes. Unfortunatley the way I dress is largelydictated to what I have available. I would love to shop more and get brighter feminine clothing but cant afford to. Maybe one day when I win the lotto!!!

I always selct dress to match my personality.I like to be a suave person as choose my dressed accordingly.I strongly belive in that the dress maketh the man.

It mostly speaks my likes and the way I want to portray myself.It really speaks about my personality. The way i dress also speaks my state of mind.

I actually believe that the way you dress matches your personality and your state of mind. Generally when you buy clothes, you generally buy from your personality, and when you wear something for the day it generally says your state of mind for the day, so I guess it speaks both ways.

This is an interesting topic. I think my dress speaks about my state of mind. Not only dress but also the way I arrange myslef - makeup, the way I arrange hair, hand bag, etc. speak my state of mind. If I am very happy, it refletcs in my dress for sure. Also, I dress sometimes for occassions. I don't go for a wedding reception in bad clothes even if I am sad or upset.

yes big time it speks for the way i'm but some times i have to shut that down and wear what they tell me.

I buy clothes in colors and patterns I love.I guess it says a lot about my personality.I love bright and cheery colors.I love printed clothes.my clothes probably scream that "this person is cheery and fun to be around".

hi friend. i am not so conscious about my dress. i just wear bcoz i have to. my well wishers say that my dresses never match with my profession. generaly i wear casual dresses like jeans and t shirts, i wear formal too but i have not any situation demand dressses. lol

When shopping for a dress, I focus on the cut and style of the dress before I look at the color and pattern. To me, those things come second.

I guess a lot depends on the mood I am in when I'm shopping. How often have I gone through the clothes in my closet and wondered why on earth I bought that!!! My first choice is to pick clothes that look and feel comfortable. They may not always be the prettiest but when you have to spend all day in them (I'm talking about a 9-hour day at work), I guess 'comfort' is an issue. So, I guess, most of the time, my clothes reflect my preference for comfort. As to what I choose to wear on a particular day, it does, to an extent, reflect my mood. For instance, if it's a rainy, gloomy day, I enjoy wearing bright oranges and yellows; I guess it's my way of bringing some brightness into a grey day. So that is a characteristic I share with you, Divkris!
