Fashion 101

Can you make yourself better at style when you’ve already striked out before?

What if it was more than once? Twice?

The answer is Yes.


Some people may say no, but style is relative.

What you need is an open mind for changes.



First things first!

Do you know who you are?

Yes, I’m asking if you know yourself.

What kind of person are you? What is your lifestyle, hobbies?

Or better yet what personality do you have?


The best way to know what style fits you or what will fit you is if you know yourself well.

Make sure it can adapt to your personality, because at the end of the day, it’s what you feel about yourself that will matter.



The next is to understand your body.

For some this can be tricky. Some may be in denial or some may think this is a sensitive topic to touch.

But rest assured Fashion doesn’t just cater to the skinny blondes. Not that there’s anything wrong with them *coughing!*

You wouldn’t have any clothes to wear now (literally) if you think this doesn’t apply to you.

Everyone has flaws, everyone has their best asset.

What you need to do is to figure these out.

How? Go ask your friends!

Who better to tell you the truth than your real friends?



When these things are done, you’re on your way to possessing that style you’ve been wanting!!

What to do after this?

Research!

One of the best places to find things about style is the internet!

If you’re reading this, start google-ing things up now! ;)

Aside from internet, you may also use books and even tv shows/programs as references.

Here are examples that may be able to help you,
