Some Mistakes About Fashion

You think you can just wear a bold color at a time.
If we have learned anything from the recent phenomenon of color-blocking, it is that a bold, saturated color can look even better when paired with another bold, saturated hue. Wearing an emerald green silk shirt? Do not be afraid to wear those pink suede heels or carry that sun yellow leather clutch and you will have super-modern look.

You hate shopping, so you rely on the same old dinosaurs in your closet.
Only in fashion or shopping? Okay, but you are probably looking presentable, so it's not the end of the world to replace the 15-year-old square-toe brown loafers with an updated style, or replace blacks pants boot-cut by the end of the 90 with a pair that fits well and has a slimmer line. Go ahead and stick to the same styles, but just give them small updates. It will not only look younger, but you will probably find you like dressing up a bit 'more when you have modern pieces that fit.

Real men think it is only for men.
Obviously, you're not going to take a suit to a big man Rochester, but you would be surprised by how many-to-man made pieces can work for you. This is especially true in common outposts like Forever 21, H & M, J. Crew, and Zara, whose stuff-thinking slim-cut button-down men, sweatshirts, oversized sweaters, jackets and utilities, are often not well to fashion as their counterparts for-Women, and offer a slightly slouchier fit.

You think sweatshirts are strictly casual attire.
Once strictly for athletes, gym goers, and bellhops-runners, the humble sweater rose to become a very stylish staple. Need evidence? Top designers like Kenzo, Phillip Lim, Cynthia Rowley, and Karen Walker were on display versions that are embellished and printed, while the stars of street style from matching their sweatshirts with swingy skirts, skinny pants, and necklaces statement. And we're not just taking on design both versions, the old heather gray Hanes sweatshirt will do the trick just fine.

Do you think that mixed prints are too busy.
In fact, mixed prints can look extremely cool, and elevate your from ordinary to street-style ready in no time look. pro style know that all is well when it comes to merging reasons, but beginners should start with this suggestion (floral with polka dots with stripes Ikat !!): Leopard Treatment or camo (or both) as neutral is the easiest way to enter in the mixing model. Whatever printing color chosen, add a leopard or camo belt, shoes, bag, shirt, or whatever.

Do you think that the gold and silver mixing is a misstep
Not only is this a ridiculous idea, but it also causes you to miss out on some murderess jewelry trends, such as metal rings mixed midi, delicate layered necklaces, or #armparty seriously different.

You think that you can not wear red to a wedding.
This fashion rule a little 'ridiculous was put in place during the most conservative periods when the red was thought to be too sexy, color carefully theft. Yes, you might want to stay away from wearing a red precipitate spandex fitting gown at a wedding, but probably do not want to wear it in any color. These days, there are tons of red dresses of high style that are perfectly acceptable as formal wear, as evidenced from the runways at Fashion Week and red carpet, where celebrities often wear red dresses that look elegant and classic, as opposed to bad taste.

A good rule: Choose red dresses with clean lines that are made from chiffon, silk, organza or, conversely shiny satin or anything too elastic, and always keep embellishments to a minimum.

You get caught up in one season wonders.
Let's be clear: I certainly do not think any spurge need to be something "classic" that will last until the end of time (where's the fun?), But we think dropping a ton of something that is so obviously the " it is "part of a collection is silly (ahem, $ 1,000 Parental Advisory sweatshirt by Alexander Wang.) Why? Because there is a good chance that after the season is high and luster begins to fade, you might start to feel that your madness was partly due to the immediacy of having something sought after, rather than something that you adore long term .

Think 'classics' have to cost a lot of money.
Most women can not, or prefer not to release a lot of money on clothes every season, even on points we were told will always be in style. This is why off-price riven

Think 'classics' have to cost a lot of money.
Most women can not, or prefer not to release a lot of money on clothes every season, even on points we were told will always be in style. This is why off-price retailers like TJ Maxx, Marshalls, and Century 21 are so great for scoring real designer pieces at a fraction of the cost. Even fast-fashion shops like Zara, Asos, and Uniqlo are increasing their play and quality, offering a wide range of timeless pieces such as woolen coats, leather Chelsea boots, wool and cashmere sweaters and silk blouses prices seriously wallet-friendly.

Summer is here and in just a matter of weeks, we will all be leaving our work lockers in favor of our summer uniform. If you are planning on heading to the beach or spending your time with a relaxing 'staycation' at home (cocktails on anyone's deck?), You are probably hanging to ditch your heels and slip on your sandals this summer.

Any fashion girl will tell you that the best thing about summer is that the good looks do not take much, it simply requires having a few stylish staples that can take you from the beach to the bar. For your most elegant summer, however, invest in these staple pieces and greet your perfect summer capsule wardrobe.

1. The classic white shirt

By far one of the most versatile pieces of recent seasons, the classic white shirt is that friend who is always there when you need them. Perfect for tossing over your swimsuit on the beach, a white shirt will also look great worn open over a summer dress or stuck in denim jeans or shorts for a casual night look. Look for a good quality linen blouses, as these fabrics are super breathable and will help you stay cool.
Long Sleeve Blouses
2. A straw hat

Long days at the beach require serious sun protection and the good news is that staying safe in the sun does not have to be bland. This season is all about the straw hat and the perfect style will add an instant elegance element to any beachwear.
3. A swimsuit that works for you

By far one of the most difficult things about summer fashion has to be find the perfect swimsuit because seriously, who wants to undress and spend hours in assembly rooms trying to togs under fluorescent lighting? The good news is that this season offers a swimsuit style to suit even the fussiest fashion girls, with everything from one-piece suits to small sassy bikini bottom styles. Look for a swimsuit that flatters your body shape and that you feel comfortable in - after all, there is no point having a super in-trend swimwear if you ever want to wear it.

4. The perfect pair of sandals

In New Zealand we are all over the Jandalos, however, a good pair of sandals is an even better investment because you can dress for a night out. The slides are particularly hot this season and look good with everything from a bikini, shorts, jeans.
5. Your last summer dress

It just would not be summer without that little dress you can just throw. Whether it's over a bikini or dressed up for a night out, finding the perfect summer dress is the key to mastering that beach in the style of the bar.

Low cost chic
linen pants


You do not need a lot of clothes to be stylish.
Because something is cheap does not mean it's a bargain. If it costs $ 20 and you barely wear it, it's wasted $ 20.
Something expensive can be a good deal. If you spend hundreds on something that is worn frequently, it is money well spent.
Pay attention to the chains - target, Kmart and so on are great. You need a good eye and you have to take the time. Look look. There has never been a better time to buy cheap clothes.
The price does not dictate the style.
The mantra for trousers and jeans
Https://i.startsatsixty.com.au/wp-content/uploads/20161123175610/Fashion-Tips2.jpg
Avoid trousers three-quarter length. Makes everyone except Elle Macpherson look formless and your overall appearance shorter and wider. Full length looks better, seven-eighth length looks better, shorts look better.
Pockets on the back of jeans and pants flatter the bottom and makes it smaller.
Never wear tights or elastic pants in pants and jeans - makes you look dressed. The exception to this rule is the more complete woman.
A high waist will make you look bigger and your legs longer.
A custom belt is always sitting and looks better than an elastic belt.
Having all Jeans on the exact right length for the shoes you wear - too short or too long will ruin the look.
Moleskins are thick and add in bulk, they never look sharp. Velvet is nice, ribbed velvet a little worker-like.
Of all the pants and pants, a well-cut pair of dark blue denim jeans is hard to beat. Take a look at the RM Williams range - my choice.
What to wear on top
Instead of a crew neck t-shirt, choose the Henley t-shirt (a t-shirt with half-way buttons on the front, much more flattering than a crew-neck style).

Buy two new white t-shirts or preferably Henley each summer - so smart with denim. Throw away last summer's t-shirt and Henley's tops, which will not now be bright white.
Always buy t-shirts / Henleys with lycra content for a tight fit.
Avoid picking style tops. In fact, avoid assembling.


Skirts and dresses
clothes
Boots look better with flared skirt and the skirt should cover the top for boots.
The length of the skirt should be slightly above the knee or calf. Never on the knee that can give a half and a half look.
Keep a variety of tights to suit all occasions and flatter your legs. Eight and fifteen pence more without roof. Black, bronzed and flesh-colored. If you prefer bare legs, use a little washing-off tanning leg.
It can be difficult to define size these days. Try a low belt to give the definition, match the color of the belt to the color of the dress.
Nude colored shoes lengthen the leg and put in skirts and dresses to perfection.
The wrap dress is the most flattering - wins hands down each time because it fits all body shapes.
I am pretty fond of the straight cut, body dress dress too - not too tight not too loose. Just right. This style cries for the low belt.
Unless you are very tall, avoid border impressions.
Avoid the faux pas of fashion
Scan fashion magazines and when you see something that calls and that you know suits you, put together new clothes around this theme.
Say three or four colors that mix and match.
Or go with a floral theme.
Maybe go back to the 1970s and go bohemian.
Perhaps a casual, country look.
When out and around and you notice someone standing outside, study it in detail and decide what makes it look so special. Work on what you can copy.
In shops or when studying catalogs or browsing in online stores and you admire a combination of separate that has been set up by a stylist, buy the complete set - accessories and jewelry, shoes too and you Can not go wrong.
It is wise to wear "your" color near your face, but in a soft, flattering tone rather than the bright, bright tone of the color.
Make sure your clothes fit well and that includes underwear. Too tight and you will swell. Too loose and you will look as if you live in a loose bag.
Stimulate your ego and dress best all the time, not just for special occasions. Put thought into everyday wear and work.
Wear clothes that feel comfortable on your body, that you know are your style and suit you; That make you feel "like me".
