[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am in shape, spend money on clothes/beauty/hair (not a ton but I do invest in these things), and I always feel like I have nothing to wear and I look unkempt. I don't think I'm unattractive and can look good when I am pulled together but I feel like that's so rare and get's harder as I get older.

I never go on Instagram, it wasn't even downloaded to my current phone which I got months and months ago. But I had a message on there so I downloaded the app to see it and wound up scrolling. I know all these women who always look great -- their clothes are so flattering and fit them really well and they have the right accessories and they have all these photos of themselves just in their everyday lives looking as pulled together as I look for, like, a wedding. How are they doing it?

[b]I feel like part of the problem is I'm not investing in stuff like expensive bras or tailoring but I don't even know where to start with that stuff.[/b] It feels overwhelming. I[b]'m never going to find a lipstick that flatters and doesn't rub off instantly[/b]. [b]My hair is always going to look a little messy unless I take 45 minutes to "do" it. [/b]I can never find shoes and bags that really go with a lot in my closet and feel like I'm always wearing something that almost works but doesn't quite. Are these women just spending a LOT more time and money on this stuff, or are they just naturally more beautiful, or what. I feel like I have the raw ingredients and just can't seem to pull it off.[/quote]

Go to an upscale women's boutique or somewhere like Neiman or Saks.  Find a sales associate and have them dress you.  Prepare to spend a lot of money.  This is how it works unless you are innately talented at shopping for deals or know your body type very well.

Same for makeup.  Go get a consultation and have someone assist you.  You might be able to get away with Sephora, but I'd try one level up.

Perfect hair takes 45 minutes to do for most women (some are more talented than others) but if you want it perfect and are a mere mortal, then it's going to take time.

Being pulled together and "perfect" is a huge investment of time and money and it is worth it to some people.  I mean look at the real housewives.  They have whole TEAMS of people to make them look the way they do.  If you want to look even 15% of what they look like you have to spend time and money to get there.[/quote]
