What you wear does matters!

I doubt some Singaporeans felt nothing and no feeling towards whatever they wear. Looking at Orchard Road, you can see a lot of slipper gangs, singlet gangs and also student gang.

I would say I belong to slipper gang. I do love to wear flip-flops however recently I will try to refrain from it everywhere I go. 

Let’s say when you are in your school days and you represent the school by wearing the uniform. By wearing the uniform, it reflects your school’s image. It’s a kind of branding I would say and as students, you are the product. How well a brand establish itself in the market depends greatly on how well the product is made and had achieved. So even during school days, what you wear does matters.

Singlet Gangs – This is what I hate actually, there is nothing wrong wearing a singlet in your neighborhood. But to wear it in Orchard road and with your hairy armpits? Please, you may feel comfortable, but those boarding train and buses DON’T! What contradicts our thinking is this “as long as I’m happy and feel good, that’s enough” but what overwrites it is “it’s good to feel comfortable but you still have awareness to your surroundings”. Imagine someone wearing singlet like you standing beside you with sweat dripping down from the armpit hair!

So what I mean is, you represent something whenever you go. The kind of things you do, your manners, your attire really speaks a lot. Being trendy is good, but being inappropriate is not. If you wear slippers, wear something nice to cover it or LOOK NICE!
