On the streets of Bristol, spontaneous conversations often remind us how creative expression through clothing can completely lift our mood and reflect who we truly are. In this feature, we connect with Simi to talk about style, gratitude, and what brings true vitality to her days.
For Simi, feeling alive is rooted in the creative process of fashion and self-expression:
"Generally, I would say dressing up. Dressing up, yeah. It makes me feel alive, make me feel good... The act of putting on outfits together and styling, basically, the act of putting it together, because it kind of just expresses your personality, is what makes me feel alive."
Reflecting on life's challenges and maintaining perspective, Simi shares a grounded outlook on embracing each moment:
"I would say having to be grateful for each day and then getting through each difficulty at every point in time."
Closing our conversation, Simi shares a wonderful and uplifting message for the world on seizing the day through your wardrobe:
"Wear that clothes. There's no special occasion. Every day is a special occasion. Every day you wake up and see the bright sun or the bright weather is a special occasion. So, wear the outfit today."
