Dress flawlessly, and people will remember the person; dress shabbily, and they will remember the dress. Perhaps a hard pill to swallow but we cannot disagree! Your clothes and style leave a lasting impression of you on the people you meet especially if it is for the first time! Dressing well is an art that you can learn through trial and error and of course, experimentation. But that does not mean there aren’t any style guides that can give you a headstart on your journey towards looking polished and classy and this blog is just that! We have compiled six tips for you to rock this year looking better than ever before! So, without any further ado, let’s dive right in!
Tip 1. Have fun and use your clothing to express your unique sense of style/individuality.
Your clothes do not have to fit into any particular niche if you don’t want them to, you can freestyle them in a way they highlight your personality, after all, your clothes make a statement too! Find out what styles really suit you and you feel best in and use that as your foundation. Having a sense of personal style is an essential part of navigating life that tends to be ignored by a lot of us. Knowing what you like and what you look and feel good in will also save you time while shopping as it will make filtering out items easier and you will also save money only buying pieces you are sure you will cherish. The first step in defining one’s own style should be gaining the freedom to refer to anything as one’s own style. One’s appearance, including their clothing and accessories, should reflect their inner feelings. Therefore, it’s critical to be confident and feel free to dress however you enjoy getting dressed.
Tip 2. Colours, colours colours!
Perhaps one of the most distinct parts of clothing! You might remember how a dress was designed but you do tend to remember the colour. The colours of clothing you choose to wear also affect how you look in them. Ever wonder why certain colours look great on certain people? That’s colour theory! Your clothing should also enhance your appearance and not make you look washed out so learning what colours best suit you is critical, Most people love neutrals and understandably so! They are classy and go with everything. Most neutrals look good on everybody and are perfect for everyday office/college outfits. A good rule of thumb here is to get bigger pieces of clothing in neutral colours and you can spice them up with smaller, colourful pieces of clothing and accessories. You can dress up the most basic and chic neutral suits with a colourful tie or a neutral blouse and colourful shoes! Make the colours work for you!
Tip 3 Body Proportionality.
Surprisingly little of your appearance is determined by the shape of your body. The largest influence on your appearance is actually your clothing. Clothing has a significant influence in this area.
The goal is to give the body the appearance of proportion.
The human eye and brain loves to see proportion and symmetry! This tip simply comes down to human biology. Try to wear clothing pairs that make your body look seamless. Wear a shirt and pants in a similar colour or at least not two entirely contrasting colours, this will give you the illusion of have a seamless, proportionate body which is attractive and makes you look refined. Wear socks that match your pants so your legs don’t suddenly look cut off because of the different colours.
Tip 4. Dress according to the occasion.
You should always keep your settings in mind when choosing an outfit. Dressing according to the occasion makes you look sharp and gives you an air of confidence. Have different clothes for various needs and occasions so you’re always prepared to look your best. Party outfits, casual outfits, sporting outfits, street wear and more! Dressing appropriately helps you feel more in place in different situations which automatically boosts your confidence which enhances how others perceive you and everyone loves a little attention!
