Fashion and style is usually a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months.” I always believe Oscar Wilde said this quote several hundreds ago is to mention us not to blindly follow trends, but to create our own fashion sense. Otherwise, you will only find countless outdated ugly clothes filled your closet. In a word, we should foster our personal fashion sense.

So how to foster our own fashion sense? There are six steps to teach you become a person with sense of style and know the fashion and style for ladies.

Step1 Hold a belief

The first step is very easy. What you only need to do is hold the belief that personal fashion sense should concentrate on comfort, neatness and fit. We are not internet celebrities, stars or models. We needn’t wear clothing with too much exaggerated design. The options of clothes should make you feel cozy, confident and happy. Of course, if you believe the clothes is suitable and comfortable for you, you can wear it with confidence.

Step 2 Know your figure

Knowing your own body is another task. Only when you find out the characteristics of your figure, you can make the most of your strengths and minimize the weakness.

In general, there are five type figures- H, X, A, O, V. Each type has their characteristics. Most Nigerian women have an X or O figure, which is sexy and healthy.

Step3 Find your favorite styles

From now on, you have clearly known your figure. Then in the next step, finding your favorite styles is essential. There are many types of fashion style for ladies, such as Bohemian fashion style, chic fashion style, artsy fashion style and more. You don’t have to choose from one of them. Because women are always changeable. New styles can create new mood. But we may ask “Do I need to buy a lot of clothes If I choose several types of fashion style?” Don’t worry. Sometimes, limited items can match unlimited outfits. So how to find your favorite style?

Scanning

Scanning the Instagram, scanning the Pinterest, scanning the magazines, and scanning your idol’s pictures… You even can read the books about clothes, design and watch your favorite movies to find the exciting outfits.

Collecting

But scanning is far from enough. Everyone browses the website and receive new information about costume. But why they still have problems when they select clothes and match their outfits? The answer is simple — they don’t collect those inspiriting outfits and reorganize them. Thus, after scanning the pictures, you should collect them and classify the outfits based on different styles.

Cleaning

Have you in such awkward situation that you found it is so stupid to buy some clothes even though you once loved it very much? If you do, cleaning your folder of outfits will help you solve the problem. After several weeks or months, open your favorites and clean those outfits which you think is ugly or distasteful. Repeating this step may times, the remaining picture will be your favorite styles.

Step 4 Trying

In the whole process, trying can be regarded as the most important part. In this step, I advised you not to give your wardrobe a makeover. See your collected pictures, find the similar items in your closet and try to match them. For example, if you love the outfit in the following photo. You should find a white shirt, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sports shoes. The color should be in harmony. Usually, don’t put more than totally different three colors on your body. Sometimes, appropriately using accessories, such as bags, necklace or sunglasses can make the finishing point.

Step 5 Shopping

Although making use of the old clothes is a good choice. You can’t avoid giving up some distasteful clothing in our wardrobe. Thus, purchasing some new items is another task. Instead of blindly trying, you should conclude the most common items in your favorites first. Then trying and shopping can go on simultaneously in the physical store. You should play you inspiration and take advantage of your collected pictures of outfits. Besides clothing, accessories are crucial items. They will become the soul of outfits if you make use of them. For instance, an elegant belt can be the highlight. Remember, choose the comfortable, high-quality and classical pieces and make sure you will love it more than several years before buying it.

Step 6 Tips

  • Choose clothes based on your figures.
  • Match your outfits according to your nature and profession
  • Make the most use of your every item.
  • Don’t put more than totally different three colors on your body.
