Looking good; Is it vanity or a requirement?
Oh my! This is right up my alley but not the way you might expect.
My attire is 98% about my own comfort. When I’m occasionally color coordinated, it’s a happy accident.
I maintain a good hygiene practice of combing my hair and washing my face, etc. BUT I care not one-bit what others think of me beyond that. I can go all week without looking into a mirror. LOL
In order to show respect, I do “dress-up” for weddings, funerals, and public functions but ordinarily I’m comfortable. My life is more of an internal existence so my outward appearance (which I deem a display for the public) is not of any importance to me.
Those who do look nice are a pleasure to behold yet there are many who seem to try too hard and are (unintentionally) off-putting. “Ladies, you’re beautiful just the way you are!”
If people seem happy and comfortable, any direct focus on their attire doesn’t even register.
LOL… I’m a terrible confidant for those who wish to discuss things that I don’t even notice. People’s weight, new shoes, and hair styles aren’t important to me. Let me tell you about their easy smile or direct eye contact. Those are the things that impress me.

A smile is worth more than any clothes.
Unless you’re naked then most would notice. 🤣
Thanks, you’re right!
Feeling good is more important than looking good! Thanks for sharing Susan
