Ask yourself why the opinions of others DOESN’T matter to you.[/quote]

The opinions of others do matter. And I can probably count all those "others" on my two hands. Part of growing up is realizing that most people's opinions don't matter. Impressing looks-obsessed women (yes, only women care about this) that I don't know isn't a priority. The employee at Target doesn't care what I wear, they care that I'm polite. The other parents at pickup don't care how I'm dressed, they care if my child is nice to theirs and whether I'm donating to the fundraiser.

I think there's a massive fallacy at work with you and OP in that you think everyone cares about this as much as you do. That all of us are judging each other by outfits and makeup. In professional or formal environments where certain dress is expected, then people should dress appropriately. But outside of that, nobody cares. Nobody is looking at you. Nobody remembers you. Not a single person saw you at the Wawa today and thought "she is so well dressed, I feel respected and uplifted by her presence." But they certainly noticed if you were talking down to them.

My husband and I notice you and think you look like a lazy slob without an ounce of self awareness. And that your appearance is a sad reflection of the overall lack of manners, decorum, and pride in the US.  A society in decline, as it were.  Oh well.

My husband and I don't notice you at all. [/quote]
