What to Wear?

Let’s face it—we all want to look good. Whether it’s through your hairstyle, makeup, accessories, or outfit, the desire to present your best self is a universal one. But then comes the classic question that sneaks into our minds more often than we’d like to admit: “What should I wear?”

And no, it’s not just about having a closet full of clothes or keeping up with the latest trends. “What to wear?” is actually a much deeper confusion that hits us for many reasons—your upcoming event, the weather, your body type, your skin tone, your personal beliefs, or even just someone else's killer outfit that you saw earlier.

When Copying Doesn’t Work: A Common Mistake

Imagine this: you walk into your office in your usual work attire. You’re feeling alright, just another regular day. Then someone walks by—a colleague, glowing with confidence, receiving compliments left and right. Why? Their outfit. It’s fresh, stylish, and somehow... perfect.

Inspired (or maybe a bit envious), you ask where they got it from. You visit the same store, grab the same suit, step into the fitting room—and suddenly, something feels off. It doesn’t look the same on you. The magic’s missing.

But here's the truth: there’s absolutely nothing wrong with you.

Your colleague may have a different body shape, skin tone, hairstyle, posture, or even energy. Fashion isn’t one-size-fits-all. In fact, style is all about discovering what Soooots you.

So, What Really Soooots You?

Finding your personal style isn’t about copying others—it’s about understanding yourself. Here’s how you can start:

1. Know Your Colors

Colors can make or break your outfit. The right shade can brighten your complexion, make your eyes pop, or even boost your mood. The wrong one? It can dull your entire presence.

To figure out your best colors, learn about your skin's undertone—warm, cool, or neutral. You can check your veins (green means warm, blue means cool), or simply notice which jewelry—gold or silver—looks better on you.

2. Dress for Your Body Type

You don’t need a model’s figure to look fashionable—you just need to understand your own. Apple, pear, rectangle, hourglass—each body type has clothing styles that flatter it best. Embrace yours.

Try experimenting with silhouettes. A-line dresses might flatter pear shapes, while tailored blazers can enhance rectangular frames. It’s all about creating balance and highlighting your strengths.

3. Get Honest Opinions

Sometimes we’re too close to ourselves to see clearly. That’s when your circle comes in handy. Ask your best friend, partner, mom, or sibling: “What do I look good in?” You’ll often get honest feedback from those who love you most—and you might be surprised by what they say.

Real style isn’t just what you like—it’s also how others perceive you. And no, that doesn’t mean you should only dress to please others, but a second opinion can reveal strengths you didn’t even know you had.

When in Doubt, Keep It Simple

If you’re ever unsure, go back to the basics:

• Solid neutral colors (white, beige, black, navy)
• Well-fitted jeans or tailored pants
• A clean, ironed shirt or blouse
• A watch or small accessory that adds character

These elements never go out of style and work as a foundation. Once you're confident with the basics, you can start building more personalized, bold looks on top.

One of the most iconic examples of dressing simply yet purposefully is Mark Zuckerberg. The Facebook (now Meta) CEO is globally recognized for his signature look—a plain grey t-shirt and blue jeans, worn almost every day. Sounds boring? Not really. It’s actually a power move.

Zuckerberg once explained that he eliminates unnecessary decisions from his life to focus on what truly matters. His consistent outfit is more than comfort—it’s a style philosophy. And it works because it Soooots him.

You don’t have to wear the same thing every day, but there’s a lesson here: simplicity, consistency, and self-awareness can be just as stylish as bold trends—if not more.

Your Style, Your Statement

Looking good isn’t about copying others. It’s about expressing yourself, understanding your uniqueness, and respecting what makes you you. That’s why at Soooots, we believe that fashion should never be forced—it should feel like a reflection of your soul.

So the next time you find yourself staring at your closet, confused and frustrated, just pause and ask:

What Soooots me today?

You’ll find the answer—not in someone else’s outfit—but in your own evolving sense of self.
