Why do people get intimidated by my style?

Hey there, I was just wondering why people seem to get intimidated by how I dress? As a person, I like to dress up a lot, for example I like to wear black slacks, a nice blouse and a well fitting armani collection blazer and a pair of pointy toed shoes. I like to wear Gucci shoes, not to impress anyone, just because I like thier designs and they are comfortable. Sometimes I will wear vintage pieces. I am in my last semester of college, but I am more dressy then most students, and even many of the adults in the community. I stand out where I live in the suburbs, and only feel at home in a city like New York, Paris, SF or London. People seem to shy away from me because of the way I dress. Sometimes I think I tend to stand out. I am not trying to impress anybody, it%26#039;s just want I like to wear, and don%26#039;t feel the same in anything else.

Why do people get intimidated by my style?
Hi there, people that dress well are not snobby, they just have a sense of style. My husband is the same way, he%26#039;s from europe, and boy does he love his suits. It%26#039;s sunday, and he will be in a suit. I think it is nice when people dress up and pay attention to what you wear, especially after you are married and you are going to have a baby. Some women who are mothers turn into slobs after they get married and become pregnant. Sometimes women think they have to give it all up to thier kids and thier families and can%26#039;t look stunning anymore, this is a real nonsense mentallity, but unfortunatly most women in America fall prey to it, and as a result end up looking like dowdy housewives. I bet you are going to be hot mama!
Reply:Sound like you are throwing out names to me. Maybe it%26#039;s not your clothes.
Reply:Maybe people see you in these big name brands %26amp; feel that you%26#039;re a snob. Even if you aren%26#039;t people like to judge, so they see you all dressed like that %26amp; figure they aren%26#039;t going to bother to talk to you because they think you wouldn%26#039;t even give them the time of day.
Reply:you are surely trying to impress others..


if not dont think about all these..

Reply:People are intimidated by your style because whether you like it or not, money is a sign of power, and the designer brands you wear cost a lot of money. People see this and have complexes with the power that money brings.


Try to shine through what you are wearing and show people who you really are. Thing less about the labels you are wearing, and so will other people.
Reply:No one%26#039;s intimidated. There%26#039;s just nothing to like about you.
Reply:well thats what you want to wear so if people dont like you/accept you for who you are and what you like adn your style then thats there problem. you have a great sense of fashion. have you considedered moving to a place where you are more comfortable? dont care what people think, if they are intimidated its only because they are jelous or think you are stuck up or rich. no offense but thats the truth. i dont think that but i have many friends who tell me how they feel bout this kind of stuff. just good luck and dont change for anyone!
Reply:I think I know what you mean. I used to dress somewhat along the lines you described because I was working in an office in an important company for most of my student years and I had to be office dressed.





Most people in my neighbourhood or my fellow students would give me cold looks because of the clothes I wore. After they knew me better, they changed their opinion of me but I was still nicknamed %26quot;the princess%26quot; for the way I dressed.
Reply:maybe they%26#039;re not intimidated but just wondering why someone would actually dress up to college.i normally spend time dressing up if i%26#039;m going someplace like dining out.otherwise,i just wear something casual with tennis shoes to class and don%26#039;t care too much of how i look at school.unless you actually consider school a place to see and be seen.

Reply:AS LONG AS YOUR CONFIDENT IT DOESNT MATTER.. MAYBE PEOPLE ARE INTIMIDATED BY THAT AND MAYBE PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY CANT COMPARE TO THE WAY YOU DRESS... PERSONALLY ID BECOME YOUR FRIEND TO BORROW THE CLOTHES HAHA
Reply:if its what you wanna wear than what does it matter? i mean i think its attractive when a women can wear something like that in college and feel comfortable. it shows your mature, yes for most men it will shy them away b/c expensive clothing is %26quot;suppossedly%26quot; a sign of high maintenence women but if its what you wanna wear than thats all that matters!
Reply:how do you know anyone is impressed?
Reply:It sounds to me that there should be more women like you! I like women who dress-up more than dress-down.
Reply:Oh my, pop a tiny pin prick hole in that ever swelling head of yours FAST before it%26#039;s too late!
Reply:I doubt it%26#039;s your style. It%26#039;s probably something else.
Reply:I guess you%26#039;re just that cool
Reply:Hey my friend dont worry about how they feel.


Your the one wearing decent clothes.


Enjoy it , they might feel the way they do because they feel to casual around you.


But true friends wont care if you wear a potatoe sack.


Wear what you have, enjoy.


They should be looking at the person not the clothes.


See ya
Reply:Why do you care what others think.


The ones that thinks that way, you dont need them.


But i think it might be more then just looks that make them shy away.
Reply:maybe it%26#039;s not your style. It could be people are just jealous of you
Reply:I don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s so much how you dress as the way you talk. It%26#039;s all about you!!!!!!!
Reply:I%26#039;m in my second to last semester in college and, personally, I%26#039;m so busy applying to grad schools and maintaining my GPA that I don%26#039;t bother to pay attention to what other students are wearing. Back when I had time for that sort of thing, I used to avoid people who seemed to be overtly obsessed with brands and expensive attire because, in my experience, I found I had little in common with most of them. Maybe it%26#039;s not intimidation, just disinterest.
Reply:Some people just get jealous. I know because i also wear designers all of the time and i know how u feel. some people think im trying 2 be a snob but im not so i can feel for you. designers are better quality so they last longer. As long as you can afford the stuff forget what other people think. I used 2 kinda like feel weird cuz ppl would stay stuff or look and act different around me but now its like w/e b/c i know i look good and i wanna feel good 2. so im not going 2 stop wearing designers just to make other people feel more comfortable. and it should be the same way 4 u....hope this helps!!

Your right....Dressing....is quickly becoming a lost art.





I remember when, people wore suits and ties...dresses and skirts to fly somewhere on an airplane. Nowadays...your lucky if some people remember to shower before boarding.





Dont worry...Your sense of style and dress will come in handy when you graduate and start looking for a job. Employers equate neatness, style and appearance with ability to perform. I know you would catch my attention.
Reply:Man you are too focused on your style... look at yourself or maybe what the brand names are covering.
Reply:no matter where u go if u wearing really nice clothes expensive clothes people are going envy u thats life just keep ur head up
Reply:coz sometimes peolpe whos not in to fasion thier alilbit scared for the people who really dress good thier affraid that you might reject them if they talk to you.. or maybe they think that u are in the hiest level.. so u must be down to earth be nice and smile to them so they wont think that u%26#039;r different.. (-.-)
Reply:Maybe people are intimidated by your name dropping.
Reply:Have people actually told u that they get intimidated by how u dress, or are u making that assumption on ur own?





Second, could it be the way u talk, the way u act, and the way u speak? Maybe it is something about you, and your dress style emphasizes that. You seem to like the fact that you %26quot;tend to stand out.%26quot; Others go to college to get an education?





Maybe it%26#039;s that u define urself by what u dress, and people get turned off by that. To me, u sound like a spoiled rich girl. When I was in college, I had to work and study at the same time, didn%26#039;t have the luxuries of buying what I %26quot;like.%26quot;





Remember this saying, whatever goes up must someday come down. And the higher the jump, the harder the fall. Make sure there are some people down on earth waiting to cushion u. In other words, make sure u have some good quality friends.
Reply:I personally admire the fact that you dont change your style for NOBODY!! I think your style sounds cute and I don%26#039;t think other people%26#039;s opinions should matter. I also love vintage pieces. People just need to get used to the fact that not everyone dresses like abercrombie models. So yea, don%26#039;t worry about it...as long as you feel good about yourself, there is no need to shy away or change!

You%26#039;re probably just really confident, and people can be rubbed the wrong way with it. You dress well and you know you look good.
