In this casual world, do those of us who dress nicely make ourselves targets?

I think it all comes to just envy and jealousy…it’s just like if you actually are a naturally beautiful stunning looking individual… you may get hated on or even treated a certain way because of it…
But in reality they like you so much and may want to be you or have your beauty.

@Heavenlywarrior Envy and jealousy, certainly. But, in my experience, I do not believe it was based on them "liking" me in reality.
Some people see the world as a zero-sum game. If someone appears to be better than expected it can only detract from them. Thus, that person must be "taken down a peg or two" just to bring their world back into balance.

@PrincessRoarBuddy When one is well dressed (skirt outfit, dress, suit) she may look less likely to offer effective resistance to harassment.

This is a horrible state of affairs. People who have taste in apparel, should be lauded,

people definitely notice and you are subject of much discussion i have learned. they tend to think you are in charge also

It shows you respect yourself and your appearance. You cannot control what other people wear.

I never wear anything that is worth stealing. This is a very bad neighborhood .

many will envy your good taste in dress and others will admire you for it :)

If you dress nicely it’s obvious you’re poor, it’s the one that dress like the homeless that have all the money

@MonaReeves86 My circumstances were quite poor in my early years. My birth mother was abusive and her "boyfriends" were worse. Then she went to prison (and died there within a year) and I was taken in by my rather wealthy and very indulgent grandmother. She was gentle and loving. It gave her joy to see me beautifully dressed and I wanted to give her so much joy. She provided me with wardrobe of lovely dresses, elegant suits and magnificent gowns.
