Hi everyone,
Do you have a sense of style and clear expression of your identity and tastes in your clothing? I really struggle to form a clear style and I end up feeling scruffy instead of purposefully put together. I've been looking at capsule wardrobes to see if I can fix this and find a bit of fashion sense. Curious if anyone else struggles with this? It doesn't help that I have to go into shops and feel everything, try the fit etc and can't just shop online like a lot of people do these days.
This has stemmed from me wanting to make a good impression in my new job, which has a bit more of a formal dress code than my last one.
This is an unbelievably common ASD problem. I solved by having 3 sets of clothes - smart (shirt & tie) for work and places where type 2 (casual) wasn't appropriate - typically jogging bottoms & top. Type 3 is messy clothing- things for when I'm doing hard or dirty work.
Obviously, women have a much wider palette to select from so it's hard to choose - but are also more able to wear inappropriate things and get away with it with no-one batting an eyelid..
What is expected?
