English Lessons

Clothing sense is what may be called the sense of wearing clothes in good taste and for fashion at the same time. Thinking of how far man has come in his development of clothing allows us to wear clothes with dignity.

So what is your fashion? Some people of all kinds just follow the going trends in the clothing industry. Others dress according to what their peers think are cool. Still others couldn’t care less about clothes at all. This is obvious by what they wear and by how they wear it. Did you know that the clothes that you wear give observers an impression of who you appear to be to them? Do you wear clothes to impress or shock? Some do this quite regularly. Gangs wear certain colors and clothes to identify themselves. Certain positions of employment require employees to dress a certain way. Again your clothing sense does send a mental perception to others about who you are, may be, or want to be.

While the clothes that a person wears does not tell others who they truly are it does reveal how they feel about the views of others. In fashion there can be a balance and modesty and moderation that can be met. Though we should not cater to every thought of others we should have a healthy and selfless concern with how we dress around them. We should also be concerned with how our fashion sense will affect our fellow man. So how is your clothing sense? Clothes are fun and they can identify us and protect us so whatever you wear, wear it well.
