I Choose to be ME!

I have been doing a lot of looking at what is out there in the way of clothes and fashion since I am planning on re-doing my whole wardrobe over the next year. I have come to the conclusion that I have an odd style. One that most people would call "kidish". I am attracted to bright colors and matching things. Essentially I like to dress like a 12 year old.

Why you may ask? I haven't the slightest clue. It is just what I like. My favorite stores to buy clothes and accessories from are Aeropostale, Claire's, Justice, and Hot Topic. I do not want to look like a child I just want to look like me.

I go though the clothes that is intended for people my age, and I find them very distasteful. I just HATE it all! There are those times when I find something I do like but that does not happen very often.

I do understand that if I wear clothes intended for people that are between the ages of 12 and 16 it will make me look younger and less responsible and I won't be taken as serious as I should be. People will not see me as the grown adult that I am. This is not something that I want and I have considered wearing clothes that I do not like just so people can give me the respect that I deserve, and stop treating me like "some kid". But ultimately I decided I want to be ME. I don't care if that means people think I am a kid, I downright refuse to act or dress like someone that I am not.

I am 21. I know I am still young but I do feel like with the amount I take on everyday and the fact that I work a full time job, have 2 kids, pay bills, and support 3 people, I do deserve a little more respect than to be called a kid or even a teen. I am an adult. I am me. And I just so happen to like the same style clothing that kids and teens wear.

I have decided that I will buy what I like. I will wear what I like, and anyone who has an issue with it.... well that's their issue not mine. Life is just too short. I feel that it is about the way you act not the way you look, I act like an adult therefor I am an adult. Just because I look like I'm 16 does NOT mean I am 16. (This is the age most people guess that I am).

I choose to be ME and no one else and I am going to wear what I like because I like it!
