Dress in a Classy Way.

Sometimes you just want to add a little class to your everyday wardrobe. It's easy and it looks mighty spiffy.

Steps;
1. Go to a nice store, unfortunately there are few of them in ingeria. But there are still some nice one though. I won't be digging into that so as not be a way of advertising them. Pick up some shirts (French cuffs are a real charmer) and ties—a good mix of bowties and neck ties.french cuffs are now invogue with a variety of different style. I so much get obsessed with them tho'
2. Get some slacks or casual pants. Make sure that at least one shirt goes with each pair of pants.
3. Some boat shoes are good as casual shoes, If you really want to dress to impress, you'll get some cap-toe or wingtip dress shoes, though.
4. socks are always fun. Pick up a whole lot of these, so you can color coordinate your outfits with these. You might quite disagree with me 'cos you ain't seeing the socks, but the truth is you are so much comfortable when you dress well.


Tips
Make sure that your tie knots are nice and tight; the classic half Windsor knot is best.
 Helpful?
For bow ties, make sure you keep the sides even.
 Helpful?
Shine and polish your dress shoes regularly.
 Helpful?
Have your shirts dry-cleaned and starched so they're always crisp and elegant.
 Helpful?
Dress trousers should be dry-cleaned, but casual pants such as chinos can be washed at home if you know how to iron a decent crease in them.  

Dress Elegantly Casual for the Weekend.

  How you choose to dress is up to you, but dressing elegantly while maintaining casual can give you comfort while showing others that you are professional.

Steps;
1. Wear button-up shirts. You can opt for a shirt with stripes, white, ruffles or plain shirt
2. Buy satin pants. The best colors for satin pants are brown or black.
3. Top off your clothing options with a cute vest. A button-up vest that is either black or a blue-gray color can make you look elegant.
4. Wear jewelry! Pearl necklaces and rings can always accompany your elegant dress very well.
5. Decide whether you want to wear a scarf of not. While scarves can accessorize your clothes well, wearing a scarf in the summer may not be comfortable. 'Cos everyone seems to like things that are invogue
6. Wear perfume! Do not wear a strong scent, but any perfume that offers a light, fresh scent is superb.


Tips;
Try out a few different hairstyles. You can make big curls or you could straighten your hair .
If you have short hair, you may want to buy a wig. It's not elegant to have short hair so try to grow it out.
Makeup;
If you are 14 years old or younger, use lip gloss.
Otherwise, use lip stick that matches and goes well with your clothing and jewelry choices.

How to Choose Your Best Clothing Colors

Nearly everybody is concerned about looking his or her best, which is why so much time is spent choosing hairstyles, accessories and clothing, but no matter how good the cut of your suit or the line of your dress, you won't look your best without wearing flattering clothing colors. By choosing your best clothing colors, you can make your skin glow, your eyes sparkle and your entire look appear more pulled together. This involves working with your hair color, testing your underlying skin tone, comparing colors against your skin and hair, getting a professional color analysis, or wearing monochromatic colors for impact. The following steps will show you how to choose your best clothing colours
Steps
1.Choose the right colors for your hair color.
Blondes look great in warm and bright shades such as yellows, oranges and rusts, as well as tans and taupes.
Brunettes can wear a wide variety of colors, including greens, blues, oranges, chocolate browns and pinks.
Redheads look best in browns and oranges, as well as taupes, ivories and greens.
Those with gray hair will look good in bright colors such as red, rose, plum, purples and berry, and jewel tones such as bright blues, clear greens and bold golds. Black and a real navy blue look good, but stay away from grays and pastels, beiges and tans. In general, choose bold, bright colors to wear near your face.
2. Test your underlying skin color. Your underlying skin tone plays a large part in determining what colors suit you well.
Pinch the skin on your earlobe, the back of your hand or the tip of your finger. The skin color you see for the following few seconds is your underlying skin color.
If you see blue, pink, red-violet or rosy tones, you'll look best in cool colors.
If you see peach, golden, bright warm red or coral tones, warm colors are your best choices.
3. Compare a number of colors against your skin and hair.
Choose a variety of different colored fabrics. You want to select some that are warm, cool, muted, dark, light, and clear so you can test each against your skin and hair.
In a space that is well lit by natural light, stand in front of a mirror and hold the colors to your face one by one.
Select the colors that make you look healthy, your eyes sparkle and your skin glow.
Discard the colors that make you look sallow, washed-out, tired, pale or otherwise unhealthy.
4. Get a professional color analysis. If you can't figure out your best clothing colors yourself, seek professional advice. You can do this by making an appointment with a professional image consultant. He or she will instruct you on what colors flatter you, and give you a palette of appropriate colors you can take with you when you go clothes shopping.
5. Try to choose the colour that goes with your personality.
 Every colour means something.
Red - cool, stubborn, loves horror or romance and popular
Blue - easy going, kind, peaceful, patient, and occasionally shy
Green - likes to be alone, wonders a lot, healthy, and tomboyish
Wear colors that give you a monochromatic look. A monochromatic or single-toned look is best achieved by choosing colors in the same shade as your hair.
Tips
Colours are not a big deal so don't be so sad and mad if you didn't find the color that suits you !
If your personality suits one of the colors but you don't like that colour you don't have to like it.

Shop smart and put together outfits that look good.

1.Weed out your wardrobe.
Check your closet for garments that are out of style. If you have the space, pack them away in storage bins in case the trend ever returns.never mind their worth*smiles
Dispose of pieces that are in poor condition.
2.Gravitate toward basics over trends. Trends come and go, but classic basics stick around. Focus on keeping your basics well-stocked, and only weave in a few interesting trendy pieces at a time.
3.Look at designs over brands. Choose clothing based on how it looks rather than who made it. Getting too hung up on brand names can quickly trap you into buying clothes that do not look good simply for the sake of having the name.have been a victim of this, last year i got a perfume of a particular brand(name witheld)unfortunately for me this year i didn't get the same perfume again, i had to go for another one made by the same brand. At the end of the day i was so much disappointed.so it is better to choose a design or particular a taste over a brand.
4.Try before you buy.
Try on clothes in a dressing room before you purchase them. Study yourself in the dressing room’s full-length mirror until you have a clear opinion of how it looks.
Take along a fashion-conscious friend whose style you trust when you go shopping. When left to themselves, some individuals can talk themselves into—or out of—just about anything. Your friend can provide you with a second opinion on the clothes you try on.
5. Keep your style balanced.
Avoid wearing too many trends at once. Mix one trendy piece into an outfit composed of basics.
Avoid mixing bold patterns. For instance, do not wear a large polka dot print blouse with a plaid skirt. Bold patterns clash when paired together.
If you must mix patterns, mix a subtle, muted pattern with a bolder one. For example, you could wear a floral print blouse with light pinstripe pants.
6. Avoid over-accessorizing. Do not have too many layers of accessories. Stick with one or two key accessories, though i know it is a big girl and big boy's trait but you've got to avoid it.

Have a great week ahead!

How to Avoid Becoming a Fashion Victim

 A fashion victim is an individual who obeys fads and trends without any consideration for how they look in the trendy pieces. Not every trend looks good on every person, and no one can successfully pull off every trend. In order to avoid becoming a fashion victim, you must learn to develop your own sense of style, and you must also accept that some clothes look good on you while others do not.
#DressforYourself
Find clothing that works with your figure and your personal tastes.
1. Shop for styles you like. Everyone has different tastes. If the latest trend does not suit yours, do not feel obligated to obey it.
2. Accept your body. Everyone has imperfections. Learn to accept yours so you know how to work around them.
Know your problem areas and look for ways to mask them. As a general rule, balance out thicker parts of your body by looking for clothing that draws the eye to thinner parts of your body.
Avoid clothing that highlights your problem areas. A frilly-tiered skirt may look nice on a thin woman with a rectangular body type, but it will only draw unwanted attention to the legs of a pear shaped woman with larger thighs. Additionally, a skin-tight dress on the thin woman might look awkward as opposed to the same dress on the pear shaped woman. There are clothes that work for everybody, but not everybody can "pull off" certain clothes.
3. Know your sizes. Take your precise measurements and compare them against a brand or store’s sizing chart.
Measure your bust by wrapping a taut tape measure around the widest part of your bust.
Measure your waist by wrapping a taut tape measure around the narrowest part of your waist. This area, called your “natural waist,” is usually right below your bust.
Measure your hips by wrapping a taut tape measure around the thickest part of your hips.(Adapted 4rm wikihow)
4. Set a budget.
Look over your monthly finances to determine how much money you can afford to spend when you go out shopping.
Stick to your budget. Doing so will help you avoid impulse buys and focus on buying only the clothes that look best.
Leave your credit card and ATM card at home if you lack the self-discipline to limit yourself. Carry a set amount of cash.
Wear Your Clothes Well.
