Fashion tip 1: Don't care about fashion as dictated by others and just enjoy what you enjoy.

Problem: I've never cared about my appearance before and have no idea what I like or a starting point for trying stuff

Listening to others fashion advice gives me that starting point to begin exploring! Sorry I know you don't mean that in a dismissive way, I just wanted to chime in that fashion advice is still worth discussing, it's just not something to hold yourself to =D

You raise a good point, thank you.

Our post was more in the spirit of ignoring the non-consensual barrage of 'advice', shame and other such things both the fashion industry and other people lay on people all the time.

If some{one/many} want(s) it, that's different.
