Before purchasing a piece of clothing, try to think of at least two pieces that you already own that you can wear with it.
Add a few unique accessories that emphasize color and shape, and you may be surprised at the change that slowly becomes apparent.
A fast way to change the feel of an outfit is to turn your collar up. This accentuates your face and creates a nice line down the throat and the center of the body.
A tremendously useful accessory that doesn't cost much is the humble scarf. Buy several in different colors and patterns as well as sizes, and you can use them as belts, headbands, accessories for bags, or just to wind around your neck. Scarves with mixes of unusual colors look especially stylish against black outfits. Use a long one to wrap around your neck and leave the ends free with one in the front and the other in the back. Shorter scarves can be used to tie around ponytails for a stylish yet cute touch or tied around the handle of your bag for a flash of color.
Before you visit any stores, go through your closet and get rid of any items that are worn-out, outdated, or that you simply don't like. Assess your current clothing situation and figure out what you will need to dress comfortably and appropriately for the next few months. Avoid forgetting items by making a list.
Your next step should be to set a budget, including a total figure that you do not want to exceed. Write that figure down on a small sticky note and attach it to your credit card or checkbook as a visual reminder of your limit.
One of the more commonly used fashion tricks is the wearing of monochromatic clothing. Monochromatic clothing tends to make a person look slimmer.
21 Fashion Tips
1. When you find a pair of jeans that fits you extremely well, buy two of the same piece -- it's not very often that you'll find "perfect-fit" jeans.
2. Wear a tight-fitting top with slightly loose bottoms and vice versa -- wearing a loose top and bottoms make for a shoddy look, while a tight-fitting top and bottoms look skimpy.
3. It's okay to splurge on some classic pieces for your wardrobe, like a little black dress, a crisp white shirt or a pair of jeans -- consider them as investments.
4. On a tight budget? Keep one-piece suits to a minimum. They're usually only good to wear once, and are not much use if separated. Individual pieces are the way to go. You can mix and match them in a multitude of ways for a multitude of different looks.
5. Planning to wear a skirt with flats? Make sure the skirt's hemline is above the knee. Long skirts paired with flats can make you look short and stocky.
6. Go from a corporate day look to a more glamorous party ensemble by putting on a blazer over a stylish lace top and slacks. You can wear the complete outfit to work and lose the blazer when you go out at night.
7. Muscle-sleeved tops are perfect for toned and perfectly shaped arms -- otherwise, it's not ideal to wear them.
8. Classic jewellery, like a pearl necklace or a diamond stud, is sure to always add a little bit of sophistication.
9. In fashion, it's best to always accentuate your strenghs. Always purchase clothes that highlight your best features.
10.When sale shopping, don't be tempted to immediately purchase outlandish pieces just because they're priced lower than usual -- think about whether you have other pieces that you can wear with it first, and decide accordingly.
11.Avoid boatneck tops if you have broad shoulders.
12.Nothing complements a perfect outfit than a good disposition and glowing self-confidence. If you feel good wearing it, you'll definitely look fabulous in it.
13.Wide on the bottom? Draw the eyes up with bright-colored or detailed tops. Keep the embellishments and accessories on your upper half and avoid details like belts and hemlines on your waist.
14.Match your shoes with your bags, whether in texture, or print. Doing so will help make any outfit pulled together look good. Don't be afraid to mix print pairs with plain tees and pants.
15.Need to maximize the "mix and match" power of your wardrobe? Keep pants and jackets in solid colors so they'll go with more varying items.
16.Whatever your outfit is, wear it with confidence! Often it's not so much the actual outfit that makes a statement, it's how you wear it that matters.
17.Make sure to invest in at least one well-cut suit in your wardrobe.
18.Going to the gym doesn't have to be a fashion-less activity. Liven up your workout wardrobe with lively colors instead of the all too common black jogging pants and big white shirt.
19.For quick chic look, accessorize a plain tee by wearing a multi-strand necklace or a pair of big hoop earrings. However, don't wear the necklace and earrings at the same time!
20.Find yourself wearing the exact same thing your co-worker or classmate is wearing? Make the distinction by putting on some stylish accessories that will draw the attention from your cloned clothing.
21.Swim suits with at least 15 percent spandex can work wonders in concealing flabby areas.
