So what are you waiting for to do some self-assessment and put these tips into practice? Keep reading below.
Mistakes That Ruin Your Style
- Wearing old-fashioned clothes in 2023. Don’t fall back on expensive clothes that have had their day but don’t fit your current moment. There are vintage clothes that fit your style and current trends perfectly, but you need to know how to get rid of those that don’t fit your image.
- Put your body shape before your style. Don’t just “wear” clothes that fit. You should always check that the clothes suit your style. Then (not before) judge whether they fit you well and how you can make them work best for your body.
- When it comes to fashion, less is often more. It’s better to have a few versatile outfits that mix and match easily than too many options that have little to do with each other. Too much variety can be confusing.
- Literally copying another look. It’s one thing to be inspired and another to copy. An outfit is never the same for two different people. That’s why it’s all about adapting the outfits you like to your way of being and your personality. That’s the key.
- Always dressing the same. You may think that always wearing the same thing means that you have a very defined style, but in reality it can mean that your image is very boring and lacking in ideas.
- Don’t use accessories. Never forget that it is the accessories that complete a look and define your style.
- Don’t mix things up. Too much mixing creates visual confusion and makes it impossible to define a style.
- Decide on a look at the last moment. Don’t take any chances, except for special occasions. Try out your options before you decide. Improvisation may work once, but it’s best to make sure the outfit is right and suits you.
- Don’t put too much emphasis on your glasses. If you wear glasses or sunglasses, keep them in mind when combining your outfits. They can add style to your look, but they can also ruin it if you don’t make the right choice.
- Don’t forget your make-up and hair. You can have the most radiant look in the world, but if you don’t match it well with your hair or make-up, it will lose all its initial glamour.
Tips for Fixing Your Fashion Mistakes and Bring Back a Fabulous Style
Now that you’ve fixed these bugs, it’s time to find out how to get more style:
Wear a Signature Hairstyle
Choose a haircut and style that defines you perfectly. You can go for some of the mid-length haircuts that will be trendy in 2023, as long as you feel comfortable with them. You should identify with your hair and always wear it well-combed.
Always Think About Accessories
Take your time when choosing accessories for your outfits. They are more important than you might think. Even the most casual look is enhanced by the right hat, bag or boots. The right choice will make all the difference.
Wear Only Pieces That Flatter You
That slinky, sequined dress you just saw in the window might drive you crazy, but if the fit doesn’t suit your body or your style, forget it. It’s important that the clothes you wear suit your style and, of course, your look.
Combine Colours Well
Add a splash of colour to your outfits, but make sure you get the combination right – we give you the keys here. If you don’t combine them well, you can get the opposite effect. If you also study your colour range (the colours that best suit your skin type) and take this into account, your choice will be a success.
Be Authentic
The more authentic you are, the stronger your style will be. Get to know yourself, appreciate the clothes you wear and play with your outfits. Look for your strengths and enjoy showing them off to the world. The world will eat you up.
Don’t Be Afraid to Be Yourself
Don’t follow fashion trends. Don’t just be part of the herd. Break the rules, make your own and make sure you always put your own personal stamp on your looks and everything you do. By being yourself, you’ll be able to defend any look, no matter how complicated it seems.
