Being fashionable never been a desire of mine but being who I am has been the most important. I am an artist and I wanted to be a real artist since I was 4 years old. The style of an artist and style in life is never based on what I own or what I am able to buy. Since age 4 my parents were the most attractive people and their army uniforms with their personal quality were the most beautiful thing to me.

You can not buy style. In China while I was growing up, no one had extra means and their job earnings were very little. The knowledge of yourself makes you an outstanding person thus a personal style carried with this personal visualization, as well a confidence came with this self education. The shining light in one's eyes would make any one forget what you are wearing, at least to a person with a solid good human quality and intelligence. He or she will find the true you inside. A towel could also make you very stylish and uniquely sexy.

While I was in college, a close friend told me that I should wear some suit not just wear studio clothes all the time. He said that I should have good outfits to enhance my features. I said to him: As you said, if I already have fine features why should I worry about what I wear?

We all somehow try to please others in society in order to be accepted. You may say that buying a famous designer product makes you feel important thus you would also feel beautiful. Just owning a thing that most people admire for its name brand makes you no more expensive than these goods. The name of ostentatious is: vulgar.

A dirty peasant woman may have an extraordinary elegance and style. I have always experienced this since I was 14 years old while on location in the far countryside for artistic experience. Truth is not about what you wear but how you wear it in a personal stylish way along with a refined personality and a high class sense of beauty. To create your own style by learning about yourself and designing to enhance your features and personality. 

 

Help To Find Your Own Style

Two options to achieve high sense of beauty and style:

One is to be born with, the quality and keen sense of beauty and style from within at very beginning. This innocent sense makes one outstandingly stylish at any time and age.

 

Two is to have a very refined knowledge about oneself and intentionally learn and present the qualities one admires. This results also a sense of beauty and style.

 

The best thing is to have both qualities together. The natural senses effect a high quality of style. A person at this stage would never worry if their hair was in the right place or their clothes are good enough, not even worry about making faux-pas.

 

After all we are human, how beautiful is enough?

 

As a student in one of the most famous art institutes in China, we were living with many famous artists and we always joked to each other. "When you are in bathroom no matter how beautiful, famous or rich, you would never drop a golden egg! "

 

How bad could you look anyway? We are never dealing with each other one on one on a superficial level and you are who you are from inside.

 

 

To live, feel without influence by another's opinion in the society is the most luxurious joy one can have.

 

Still, we are living at the present time, what you feel is the result of how you project yourself and how others reaction make you feel. Often a little help does make a difference. Living better and being more attractive is indeed more exciting to all of us!

Yes, how to be more attractive is much more important than how to be more pretty!
