Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

Every one of us wishes to afford a personal stylist but you might not need one if you can understand the tips and tricks to make the right choices. If you keep a few things in mind and pick the right pieces, you will manage to put together stunning outfits which are as good as the ones owned by celebs. Create an excellent outfit with the below-mentioned tips.

Recognize the feeling

Majority successful looks are achieved on the statement you are trying to make. You need to figure out if you are trying to go for a comfortable look or trying to look confident. The starting point is to figure out how you want the outfit to feel and it will help you define the rest of your outfit.

Think practically

medianet_width = “728”;
medianet_height = “90”;
medianet_crid = “185308422”;
medianet_versionId = “111299”;
(function() {
var isSSL = ‘https:’ == document.location.protocol;
var mnSrc = (isSSL ? ‘https:’ : ‘http:’) + ‘//contextual.media.net/nmedianet.js?cid=8CU3G4D0M’ + (isSSL ? ‘&https=1’ : ”);
document.write(”);
})();

At the next stage, you will have to focus on the logistics. You need to identify where you are going and how long you will be there. Consider the weather and then take precautions for the day. You need to ensure you pick comfortable pieces for the weather which are appropriate for wherever you are headed to.

Look for inspiration

Learn about the latest fashion trends and do not end up in a styling session blindly. Look for inspiration and identify the type of celebrities you like. Do not copy them precisely but use their ideas to help you understand your workings of a successful outfit.



Start with a base

medianet_width = “728”;
medianet_height = “90”;
medianet_crid = “185308422”;
medianet_versionId = “111299”;
(function() {
var isSSL = ‘https:’ == document.location.protocol;
var mnSrc = (isSSL ? ‘https:’ : ‘http:’) + ‘//contextual.media.net/nmedianet.js?cid=8CU3G4D0M’ + (isSSL ? ‘&https=1’ : ”);
document.write(”);
})();

You simply cannot pick up pieces randomly and put them together. You will have to start with a base like a casual t-shirt. This will be your first layer of clothing and the bottom will have to be styled accordingly. It is the base which sets the tone for the look.

Balance

You need to find the perfect balance in your outfit. Consider the choice of brands, textures, colors, and patterns when you put the outfit together. When you are working on the top and bottom, you need to analyze how it will work and try to balance it out. Try to make a unique statement with your choice of colors and patterns.

Always choose comfort clothing

One thing to consider when picking the pieces is comfort. You need to ensure that the pants and your shirt are comfortable and they fit well. Ill-fitted outfits can completely ruin your look. You need to consider your body type and choose pieces that are equally comfortable. Keep in mind that the shirt or t-shirt is not too baggy nor too tight.

Add layers

medianet_width = “728”;
medianet_height = “90”;
medianet_crid = “185308422”;
medianet_versionId = “111299”;
(function() {
var isSSL = ‘https:’ == document.location.protocol;
var mnSrc = (isSSL ? ‘https:’ : ‘http:’) + ‘//contextual.media.net/nmedianet.js?cid=8CU3G4D0M’ + (isSSL ? ‘&https=1’ : ”);
document.write(”);
})();

Layering can work wonders if done well. It will apply more if you live in a colder climate and will help you stay warm. When you begin layering, you need to remember that you will be taking one or more pieces off through the day. Hence, get creative when you layer. Your choices will add an element to the outfit and you need to make it unique. Look for different patterns, fabrics, and cuts when you consider layers.




Wear the right shoes

Shoes can make or break an outfit and there is a reason why people say so. The shoe you choose will add the finishing touch to the look. If you are wearing the wrong pair, your outfit will not look well put together. You need to pick shoes that complement the clothing choice for the rest of your outfit. The shoes need to add a statement and it should not clash with your attire. They should be comfortable, functional and stylish.


Accessorize

The last thing to add to your outfit is accessories. When you pick the right pieces, it will take your outfit to another level. You can turn the outfit into a real showstopper if you have the right pieces on you. You need to be really careful when choosing accessories. Consider what you want to highlight on the body and pair them with the right outfit.

Keep outfits in mind

You can only make a perfect outfit when you are aware of how you will use each new piece. Do not shop mindlessly for new outfits, everything you buy should be something that will create a unique outfit. Pick statement pieces and do not make one-off purchases.
There is an entire world for you to explore and you need to start with the basics to help you pull a classy outfit together. Keep these tips in mind when you shop for outfits and shoes.
