PAGE Magazine
Despite being something that everyone does literally every day, getting dressed can feel like the trickiest, most frustrating part of the morning. Who hasn't stood in front of a closet full of clothing and thought “I have nothing to wear!?” Rest assured, you're not alone in this daily conundrum.
If you're seeking to leave the house “OOTD” ready for the camera and the world, we have some tips that can keep you on track to getting the style that gets the likes.
Becoming an Eco-Fashion Influencer isn’t going to be as simple as it sounds, but it’s a basic approach to building your style queues. The influencer in you will thank you a great deal later on in your feed.
1. Go monochrome
Eliminate the pressure of matching hues by dressing head-to-toe in one color. It's chic for spring and might encourage you to try existing favs in a fresh, new way. Saladino especially loves gray, pink, or white. If you've got a lot of denim in your stash, try the age-old "Canadian tuxedo." A denim jacket with a jean skirt will help turn your staples into a trendy look.
2. Incorporate these three key pieces
If you hate complicated fashion trends or just want to pull together your look, you just need three items, according to The Ambitionista's Heidi Nazarudin. A face-flattering pair of classic sunglasses, a gorgeous everyday leather handbag, and a smart pair of shoes you can easily walk in will instantly level up any outfit.
3. Try bright-colored lipstick or accessories
We get it; black and neutrals are easy and endlessly versatile. But if you're looking to test the waters with loud patterns or bright colors, Nazarudin recommends wearing them as an accessory before you invest in a clothing item. "Instead of trying on a bright citron-colored blouse, you can go for a cuff or bracelet or even a lipstick," she suggests.
4. Find your personal style
Developing a signature style can take years, but you can get started by creating a mood board. Remember that personal style is an experiment; you never know what amazing looks await you until you're in the dressing room. The categories "menswear" and "womenswear" shouldn't dictate how you shop. Take time to play with colors and shapes to find what looks great on your unique body.
5. Become a better shopper
Learning how to shop for exactly what you want will help you avoid filling your closet full of items you never wear. When your wardrobe consists of pieces that you love, styling an outfit will become second nature.
6. Add a belt
Adding a belt to your look is one of the easiest ways to make any outfit look more put-together. It's also a great trick for bringing balance to a look that otherwise might not work—like a long cashmere sweater and billowy midi skirt.
7. Play with color
If you're nervous about adding color to your look, start with just one colorful piece, and keep the rest of your look neutral. As you get more comfortable with colors, you'll learn which color combinations work best for your style. Take a look at a color wheel for inspiration.
8. Mix patterns and textures
The days of matching your handbag to your shoes are over. Clashing textures and prints make a bold fashion statement. Start small with neutral patterns like stripes and low-key textures like leather and knits, adding in the sequins and paisleys in small amounts (like a scarf, tie, or clutch) until you learn what works for you.
