About It's Just Looks
|
They can keep you from getting a job, or put it right in your hands. They can bring you closer
to your soul mate, or keep you from even getting a date with the man / woman of your dreams. They make
you want to stay under the sheets for a whole day, or they can induce you to put on your sexy shirt or
stilettos and stride the streets with the confidence of a runway model. You judge people based on them
(yes, you do) and get judged like wise. We spend a lot of time working out, putting make up on, fighting
our hair's natural shape and changing from one outfit to the next. At least in our culture, we give
looks the importance they perhaps should not have, but do anyway.
We are all interested in knowing how other people see us; not our friends who know how to respond to
questions like "Do I look fat in these jeans?", but mere strangers. People who don't know how sweet
/ charming / smart / computer savvy / funny we are. People who would probably not be interested in
finding out.
Of course, it is impossible to please everyone; and if we listened to all of the wardrobe advice we have
received through the years, we would all look like our mothers and grandmothers. Thank God for individuality.
My husband and I decided to have a space where we could satisfy our natural curiosity of exposing
ourselves to public scrutiny without feeling too vulnerable. ItsJustLooks was born as a site where
you can have fun and experiment. This is by no means to be taken extremely serious. As I said before,
you cannot please everyone. What you decide you want look like is your thing, and it does
not define wholly who you are anyway.
After all, it IS just looks
