Trail covering up the mirrors in stores

Mirrors being covered up with paper.

I read about this and it really made me think about it and what must be going through the women's mind when they go and try ans outfit on even more as lot of people know I'm from Birmingham and move to London nearly 2 years ago

Third of shops in selected hammerson centres including the bullring shopping centre are covering up the mirror in the women's changing rooms and this will be going on in till next week. This is a new trial aimed at boosting the confidence in shoppers mainly women as in a survey it said 77% in the west midlands do not feel confident buying a new outfit and looking in the mirror in the stores!

Personally for me maybe because the mirrors are awful they are not hung right and also the lightening in the changing rooms does nothing for noone. Why don't store find better lightening and mirrors instead of blaming the people.

bosses have said "People should buy an outfit based on whether it not it makes them feel fabulous, not how unflattering changing room mirrors make them look"
NO!!!! I'm not sure if people will agree with me but this is a no, it also needs to look good on the personal what if they love the outfit but doesn't look good on them and it could be for any reason say for example colour makes them look washed out, it's not the style for their body shape, as if you shop for your body shape the more flattering and better the clothing looks on a person. To be this is about sales and making people buy things they are not going to wear, Why would you buy something you can't see how it looks on you because your going to get home try it on and ether love or hate it. If you hate it then one thing is that your going to be pissed off you have to go all the way back to the shopping centre to return the clothing. You are meant to look at what the clothing looks like on you its how you choose your style and what suits you its not about making your self feel bad because something doesn't look good on you, you find your shape you find what suits you and flatters your figure and dress to it, I promise your feel alot more confident about your self this way than not looking in the mirror.
Survey of 1,000 women by research company mortar also found 52% have low self esteem when looking in the mirror.

They think having more service in store at the changing rooms helping you decide if you look good or not. Women would you want some stranger telling you, you look good in the outfit your trying on or would you rather see if yourself, personally for me I wouldn't believe the people in stores as it's about sales unless you went to a private boutique and it's there job to make sure you look good for example wedding consultants. I know this as I used to be one we made sure the bride looked her best and had a dress which suited her figure.

One a women knows what style of clothing suits them it's easy to go shopping you shop for your shape if yor hour glass, straight, pear, top heavy, boyish figure. What ever Shape you are there is different styles out there to suit everyone you have to be confident in yourself to look into it and be like ok never thought about that style before. Do that and you will look in the mirror and feel good.
