How to Dress Fashionably

• Flick through magazines and find a style icon you can be inspired by. Stars need to always look good as they are constantly followed! Some good choices are people like Mischa Barton, Kate Moss and Audrey Hepburn.


• Try places like bargain stores and emporiums for jewelry; they have great stuff for great prices!
• Keep track of what outfits you wore and who saw you in them. A great online tool for this is MyClothingCalendar (www.myclothingcalendar.com).
• Go shopping with an honest friend! Nothing is more valuable in your quest for a fashionable wardrobe than someone who will tell you when you look stupid.
• Make-up is the thing that pulls it all together. Don't look fake, but polished. You can make a huge stride towards being more pulled-together by just applying foundation, blush (or bronzer) and lip gloss.
• Be you! If you like something but someone else doesn't, don't fret. They have no right to say what you can and can't like. Remember your honest friend, though. There's a difference between something that fits you horribly and something that's just a difference in style.
• Ask friends for style advice and for their style perspective.
• Confidence is key. If you don't have confidence, nobody will admire your look. You have to believe in yourself, then everybody else will too.


• Don't ever wear something that doesn't make you feel beautiful. If you feel uncomfortable, everyone can see that. Being fashionable is being confident.
• Do NOT try to co-ordinate your makeup to your outfit. It sounds like a good idea, but it's not. EX: pink shirt, pink makeup. Instead, try choosing makeup which complements your eye color. For example a soft green with brown eyes.
• Clothes do not look cooler the more you show your skin. It's fine to show some skin, but clothes do not have to have plunging v-neck necklines or be midriff bearing to be attractive. Leave something to the imagination.
• Never wear pink and red together unless it is valentine's day and never wear an outfit that completely matches (green top and green pants, or same colour kamiz and pajama etc.)
