Fashion and Confidence Go Hand in Hand (Guest Post by Jackie Clark)

Feelings of strength and confidence come from many things. Some of those things include feeling powerful; feeling powerful comes from doing a great job at work, with the kids and from accomplishing something spectacular. Feelings of power also come from the simple things, such as being the first person to know the answer to a question or the first to solve a riddle. Power also comes from looking good. Looking good means feeling good for so many; women especially feel powerful when they put on a great pair of shoes or carry a new bag.
 
Women that have been diagnosed with a rare form of cancer known as mesothelioma are in desperate need of confidence. When doctors inform women they will have to undergo treatment to treat their cancers their confidence is almost immediately stripped from them. A mixed feeling of emotion settles in their bodies that can include depression, anger, self-pity and even fear. This immediately strips women of their feelings of goodness and happiness and that can negatively affect their health.

 
Health is vital to those women that suffer from cancer. During the course of treatment, their bodies are forced to undergo many horrible side effects, such as nausea and vomiting and many lose their hair. Their immune system and feelings of confidence and power are negatively affected so it is imperative that women find a way to regain their confidence when undergoing cancer treatments. One way that is sure to make a woman feel instantly better about herself in almost any situation is a rendezvous with fashion. Fashion has this kind of power that makes women feel confident, sexy and powerful. Some women find this in a new hairstyle or expertly applied makeup. Others find it in the dress that fits just right or the jeans that mold to their bodies and make them feel comfortable and confident at the same time.

 
When a woman is facing cancer and the fears that go along with it she can instantly improve her mood through fashion. An improved mood means a better quality of life, which means better results from the cancer treatments she is facing. For some women, the key to confidence is a new pair of shoes. Each time she puts them on she will automatically walk a little taller, hold her head a little higher and feel that much better about herself. To make her feel even better, adding those great shoes to a great outfit is the best way to make those feelings magnify.

 
When a woman feels confident and powerful, there is nothing she can’t accomplish. The right shoes and the right outfit can make a woman view her cancer as a mere annoyance that she must deal with before she moves on with the rest of her fabulous life.
