Thank you SO MUCH for this!! I have absolutely done this (my inner mean voice is a big fashion cop 🙄) but I LOVE to see people expressing themselves with fashion, and almost always my second thought after "ew" is "no actually...even though it's not my style, I love that they chose that". Thank you for the renewed reminder that I *want* my first thought to be OH WOW!
I'm someone who often gets embarrassed about giving compliments (why??) But am always regretful when I don't, and always happy when I let myself be a little uncomfortable and just give it! Love having this reminder going into a day where I will be seeing all kinds of people - now I'm really excited to NOTICE each one of them 💖
I heard somewhere once that your first thought is the one you are conditioned to have by society, the second thought is all yours. I love this article for highlighting this, and for giving some actionable stuff we can do to quieten down that first thought, and nurture the second instead.
