I'm definitely a vintage collector. I have a wardrobe of core basics that I like to spice up with different colors, new accessories, and I love to try on new things to invite something different. I find, with every new stage of my life, my self-image shifts with new duties and responsibilities, and so does my fashion style.
In the early 1940s, as a young teenager, I was utterly appalled by the racist and jingoist hysteria of the anti-Japanese propaganda. The Germans were evil, but treated with some respect: They were, after all, blond Aryan types, just like our imaginary self-image. Japanese were mere vermin, to be crushed like ants.
Consciousness, much like our feelings, is based on a representation of the body and how it changes when reacting to certain stimuli. Self-image would be unthinkable without this representation.
Seeing, feeling, thinking, believing - these are the stages of how we change our style on the outside and our self-image on the inside.
The 'self-image' is the key to human personality and human behavior. Change the self image and you change the personality and the behavior.
The past is not simply the past, but a prism through which the subject filters his own changing self-image.
The easiest time to cure an illness is before it is accepted as a part of the self-image.
Distortions control my self-image, like they do for a lot of us. It's irrational.
The more a woman likes her job, the better her self-image and the more she enjoys her life.
I confront the European elite's self-image as tolerant 'while under their noses women are living like slaves.
