Miss Shop x Barbie: Confidence

Hi loves,

First off, never in my 22 years of existence did I think I would ever wear a dress with the 'Barbie' logo written all over it, but I've got to admit, I quite like it.

I feel like I found a new confidence wearing this dress. It's pretty amazing how a simple piece of clothing can do so much for one's self-esteem. That's what I love about fashion. It really can change a person, and for the most part, for the better, you know?

Finding your confidence can be quite tricky. People often mistaken confidence with being conceited which is why you have to make sure you find the right balance.
It seems like today's society has everyone brainwashed into thinking confidence = arrogance.
I've met several people in the last couple of years, and you can distinctly tell the difference just from a particular vibe when they speak to you.

Confidence is so important, and I just wish so many more girls had them; in what they wear; in what they say; in what they do. Feeling insecure and unsure of yourself can be soul-crushing, so start by wearing a bright coloured lipstick, or pair those heels with that skirt and go shopping - find your confidence in something little, and build up to it. The more comfortable you are in your own skin, the better you will feel. Trust me.
