People make their first impression within 30 seconds of seeing you. So it is important that you look good. But not everyone is born with a good sense of style. Some women can't even put together a complete outfit. If you want to make a good impression or boost your confidence, how you look plays a big role. These 14 tips will help you.
1. Focus on your best features. When you stand in front of the mirror, focus on the parts of yourself that you like. Then improve them when you're looking for the perfect outfit.
2. Look at your fashion icons. Who do you admire, in fashion? Victoria Beckham? Stella McCartney? Whoever they are, look to them for inspiration in figuring out your personal style.
3. Know your body shape. Look closely at your body shape. That way, you avoid wearing clothes that don't look good on your figure. Choose clothes according to your body type.
4. Don't focus on size. If you need to get a size bigger, just do it. Don't focus so much on the sizes, but focus on how it fits. If you're in between sizes, it's best to size up and have it fitted by a tailor.
5. Invest in a good bra. You could wear the sexiest dress in the world, but wearing an ill-fitting bra will make it look awful. So buy one that suits you well.
6. When in doubt, choose black. If you're not sure about wearing colors, go for black. It's classic, it never goes out of style and it flatters every body type.
7. Find a good tailor. Clothing is made to fit everyone, but that doesn't mean it fits everyone. Maybe you have wider shoulders or a bigger butt, which means your jeans or jacket probably won't fit perfectly. Have your clothes custom made by a tailor.
8. Keep it simple. If you're not sure how to mix different patterns and prints, that's okay. That's not necessary. Instead, keep it simple and choose solid colors.
9. Accessories. To brighten up your outfit, add a piece of jewelry. Just make sure it doesn't get too much. Keep it simple and tasteful with accessories.
10. Play with color. If you're used to wearing gray and black, why not add some color? Color is a great way to express your personality.
11. Know the loose/tight ratio. This is an important rule for figuring out how pieces match. So, if you're wearing a tight top, match it with loose pants or skirt, and vice versa.
12. Play with patterns. You don't have to look like a clown. Instead, you mix patterns very subtly. Take a solid colored piece in your outfit and combine it with a nice pattern.
13. Wear a belt. If you are wearing a loose-fitting jacket or dress, wear a belt to make yourself look better and more feminine. Wrap the belt around the smallest part of your waist for a slimmer look and shape. If you wear a belt, try not to overdo it with other accessories.
14. Iron your clothes. If your clothes are wrinkled, you look messy. So iron them neatly and you will look better.
