On the busy streets of the city, we often see stylishly dressed girls. But if we visit them, then there will surely be a different picture waiting for us. Why are we on the street and we are at home – two different people? And what is the danger of such neglect of one’s appearance?
Most of us try to dress beautifully when going to work, to visit or to some social event. We spend money on new images, read the advice of stylists, consult with friends … But as soon as the door of our apartment closes, a bun appears instead of a beautiful styling, and old stretched T-shirts instead of fashionable clothes. Why it happens?
The reason is actually quite simple: many women do not understand why they need to spend time and energy on a beautiful image of the house if no one sees you or only relatives see you. “At least at home you can feel comfortable and relax… That’s what home is for,” explains the TikTok user.
And yet there are at least four reasons to be beautiful and at home.
1. Our state of mind
When we are at home, we spend most of our time in pajamas or home clothes. That is why it is better to choose beautiful and high-quality things, because we use them every day.
And you definitely need to abandon the washed out things that have become unsuitable for going out, but are used with might and main for the home. If most of our lives we dress in something untidy, then we ourselves become untidy.
Moreover, our image quite strongly affects our mood. You must have noticed that a beautiful new thing lifts your spirits and makes you feel more confident. But in an old, washed-out bathrobe, it’s quite difficult to feel “at 100”.
2. Unexpected visits
All life is one big surprise, so we cannot guess exactly when uninvited guests will find us. It can be either a neighbor who came for salt, or an old friend who was passing through the city and decided to drop in for a cup of coffee. If we are wearing some old T-shirt with a faded print, such a meeting can bring not joyful emotions, but a feeling of discomfort and insecurity.
3. Working meetings from home
Lately, we are doing more and more things online. For example, while at home, we sometimes have to get in touch with colleagues or take part in video conferences. So, if our clothes are neat and beautiful, then we will not have to spend extra time on convulsive dressing.
4. An example for children
If there are children in the family, it is worth remembering that they, like a sponge, absorb the lifestyle of their parents and adopt their habits. Looking at the elders, they form in their heads the image that they themselves must adhere to.
What about our loved ones? Is home clothes important in a relationship or does the beauty of the soul overshadow everything?
The “Book of a Married Woman” by Madina Baibolova says: “According to the statistics of psychologists who advise married couples in crisis, a very large percentage of men complain that after the wedding, the wife stopped taking care of herself and does not look as attractive as before.”
Most of all, partners are offended by the fact that, going to work, visiting or meeting with friends, women dress up, although they go home in faceless clothes. As psychologists explain, men perceive such behavior as a depreciation of their opinion – for the wife, the opinion and assessment of other people is more important.
It turns out that our home image is important not only to us, but also to our loved ones. We are not saying that you should be at home only in cocktail dresses and evening make-up. But in the modern world, it has long been possible to find clothes that will be not only comfortable, but also beautiful. That, however, also applies to men – they can easily find an alternative to old pants and alcoholic T-shirts.
