Yesterday, I decided to pull off a bohemian look. Of course, I had had my hair piece for a little while now and wanted to make the best of that bohemian, hippy look. Unless, you are someone who actually loves fashion, certain styles will look plain crazy to you. You know what, it is ok because to each his or her own. Anyway, I got dressed to go on a little outing with the family and as soon as I got downstairs, my teddy bear sweet hubby told me he loved the way I looked but did not care for the hair piece on my head. I looked at him and told him: Well, it is my look, that’s what I want to wear today and that is exactly how it will stay. Off we went to Annapolis and I walked my look like the queen that I was. I did not have a care in the world as to what anyone thought. Some people loved it, some did not, some were laughing and some were so-so, but what I liked about the whole thing was my attitude about it. I could have easily gone to the ladies room, bushed my hair and took of the hair piece, but I did not want to. I honestly did not care what anyone thought, it was my look, I loved it and if you did not like it, that was your problem, after all I was wearing it, not you. Throughout all the mixed reviews, I was laughing hard and walked like I owned the streets of Annapolis, but I could not help to think about Dolores en couleur, a lady from my hometown of Petit Goave who used to wear the craziest things, or so I thought at the time. She walked the streets of Petit-Goave like the queen that she was and did not care about what others thought. The more people laughed, the crazier the looks got and back then I was a young girl and did not understand her message. Dolores en couleur sure was one confident woman. Yesterday, I felt the same way and somehow liberated because people’s opinions good or bad did not have any effect on me and I thought that was great. I truly wish I had a little girl of my own so I could teach her about these little details. Anyway, I read somewhere that confidence is the best makeup a girl can wear and I couldn’t agree more. Will I wear that headpiece again? You bet!!! Truth is, people will always have an opinion, good or bad they will always have one. If you let other’s opinions define you, you will be pulled in so many directions that you wouldn’t know who on earth you are. At the end of the day what makes someone great and strong is standing by who and what he or she is, no matter what.
