Define Your Own Fashion Statement
Who says what your Fashion Statement is? You of course! So make
sure you devine your own fashion statement! Each of us has our
own likes, dislikes comfort zones, body shape & size, and life
styles. It's wonderful to pick up your favorite fashion magazine
to get some great ideas. But ideas can be revamped to meet your
personal tastes.
Perhaps my comfort zone is a loose fit, maybe yours is a very
tailored or tight fit. I like turtle necks, you've got cleavage
and like to show it. Maybe your a rancher and functional is
important, or an office executive where a professional look is
critical. Tweeds in and you hate tweed, then don't buy tweed.
Hot colors are in but your skin is washed out, then stick to the
colors that look good on you but perhaps dress them up with a
little color. Low rise pants are in but they aren't attractive
on you, then don't buy them.
It's all wonderful and dandy for the fashion world to tell us
what is in, what we should wear. But the bottom line is clothes
that we buy and hang in the closet never to be warn are a waste
of our money. Don't feel pressured to stay with the trends.
Trends come and go. If you stick with your basics and then add a
piece here and there that fits the current fashions you'll be
much better off.
So pick up the popular fashion magazines like Vogue, Style, or
Elle. Have a flip through. Then take what you like and use it
and toss the rest away. What really matters is that you feel
"good" in the look you present. When you feel good about how you
look your confidence level jumps, your happier, and your
positive energy flows around you.
If a pair of blue jeans with a tank top and big bold earrings is
your thing then that's your fashion statement. If you like long
skirts, heels, and gold jewelry then that's your fashion
statement. Don't let anyone or anybody change you from who you
are. Because you are your fashion statement.
Now that's not to say we can't all take a lesson or so, get the
creative juices flowing, or freshen our look. The magazines are
terrific ways to do just that. There are plenty of great web
sites that can also be very helpful.
Don't forget accesories can spice up any outfit. Denim can be
very classy with the right shoes and jewelry. Your black dress
can become quite informal and fun with the right jewelry or
belt. Change the entire look of an outfit with your accesories.
Utilize all your wardrobe by mixing and matching pieces,
jewelry, shoes, and other accesories. The more jewelry you have
the more looks you can create.
You are your fashion statement. Say what you want, say it how
you want, wear it how you want! If your comfortable in your look
your going to show your confidence. Be you!
