Tips For Staying Fashionable In Any Season
Oct 23rd, 2011 Bill McNeil
Constantly changing fashion trends may make you think that you need an entirely new wardrobe with every change of season, but with a little creative thinking, you can stay fashionable for very little money.
You can learn the elements that make up a successful and flattering wardrobe without having to invest major sums of money.
Start with basic; your wardrobe should revolve around a number of classic pieces that never go out of style, allowing you to wear season after season.
Keep in mind the following tips and suggestions when selecting basics to add to your wardrobe.
Choose items that are appropriate for every season and do not follow any extreme trends. This is what is meant by "classic" items and they are things that have a flattering fit without being too tight. It doesn't matter how expensive a piece of clothing is if it doesn't fit properly, and keep to colors that look good on you and coordinate with each other.
The first step is to reorganize your closet, many of us have no idea what we have. Once you have it all out, categorize the items as seasonless or season-specific.
Separate out your transitional pieces and place them in their own group. You can organize them by hanger color or in a special section of your closet; then it will be easier to spot what you are missing.
Make sure that your wardrobe contains the following items.
1) White oxford shirt that can be worn under a sweater during cooler months and with the sleeves rolled up for the Summer.
2) Solid colored shortsleeve T-shirts and tank tops
3) Khaki twill full length trousers
4) Basic Denim jacket
5) Jeans that fit well and are flattering
6) A Black shirt in a flattering style
Give new life to your old stand-byes.
Don't immediately store your seasonal clothing when the season ends, take a good look at what you have.
You may be able to pair the shell from a sweater set with a neutral khaki trouser, or wear a lighter weight shirt over a tank top and short skirt for a flattering look.
It is important to be creative and flexible when it comes to creating new looks from your old wardrobe. Adding seasonal accessories can complete the look.
A single, stylish accessory can carry an entire outfit and demonstrate your sense of style.
* A flash of pink (in a shoe or handbag,worn with an outfit that is all black can update the look.
* Add flair to your favorite pair of jeans with a colorful espadrille.
* Carry a purse that makes use of natural materials in a new way such as a wood handle.
Keep your accessories appropriate to the season for example you might want to add some jewelry made from sea shells, a woven grass handbag and a bright pair of sandals to make your outfit ready for Summer.About the Author:
