It's that time again, ladies! New year, new you. This mantra is everything a self-sufficient woman should believe. The power of positive thinking can do wonders for your mental health.
For many women, style, and grace aren't things that come naturally, which is why your wardrobe is the perfect place to start. Strut into spring feeling gorgeous and confident by following these five quick ways below to be more stylish:
- Only Wear What Fits Well
The biggest crime against all things beautiful in the fashion world – wearing items that don't fit properly. We all hold onto our favorite pieces from the past that no longer fit, living in hope that one day we will again – don't do that. Choose, and buy fashionable clothing items that fit you well.
If you love a piece and it just isn't fitting you, get it tailored so that it does – but never, ever wear it just like that.
- Wear What Suits You
The second biggest crime against fashion is when people wear items that don't suit them – purely because they are on-trend. Don't fall into this trap, choose pieces that suit you instead. Everyone is different and we can't all be expected to pull off the items straight from the Paris runways.
That doesn't mean you shouldn't incorporate fashionable items into your spring wardrobe – you most certainly should. Just choose them wisely.
- Invest In Gorgeous Pieces
Every woman's wardrobe needs four style items:
- A Black Dress – it doesn't have to be little; it just needs to suit you. Channel every Wednesday Addams vibe you can muster and make your black dress work for you.
- Ankle Boots – Ankle boots are everything! Mostly because they can be worn with just about anything and look I-N-C-R-E-D-I-B-L-E.
- Blazer – A tailored blazer in the perfect color and design can makes you look like a million dollars. Every woman needs one.
- A Havana Dress – Buttons down the front, cute collar, and bubble sleeves – what more does a girl need? Choose your new Havana dress from a range of colors and materials to suit your preferences.
- Make A Statement
There is a simple piece of advice you should never ignore – make a statement. Whatever you do in life, in love and in fashion – do it in a big way. Being fashion-fabulous takes guts and bold moves.
Make a style statement and be confident with your choices – as long as they suit your body shape and skin tone, you will be ready for the runway in no time. That doesn't mean that non-traditionally shaped women can't get in on the action, it just means that they would look better in the same option that has been tailored to their needs.
- Clothes Swap
We all have that one stylish friend who makes us green with envy. She always looks well put together and in such an effortless way that it makes your heart sing. Instead of moping around, trying to copy her wardrobe's every move – strike a deal with her.
Fashion is an expensive love, which means that with two fashion budgets, you can both get more by spending less. Find ways to trade designer outfits and accessories that make it a win-win for both of you.
