Inspired by a quote from Timothy Egart "The beauty of you is how you wear who you are."  There are many ways to interpret the message that Timothy puts forward, in my podcast episode I talk to the clothes we wear and how the can make or break your day.  With the pandemic, at least for me, my clothes may not provide me the confidence or feeling of "beauty" to be who I am as they...
