4 Steps to Creating Your Signature look!


We look at the media and tabloids and as much as we don't want to admit it, we want to dress like them and gain some of their style they have as well. The thing that I try to remind people is that those celebs that you see photographed night after night, pay to have the image that they do. From the places they are seen at, to the high end designer clothes they rock, they all tend to come at a price. In this post for today, I will give you a few tips that will help you create your own signature look!

1.Know Your Personality. This key factor becomes very important when it comes to establishing your signature look. Because the clothes you wear really do tell the world who you are, you need to know who you are before you decide on how to show it to the world. You need to find qualities within yourself that make you distinctive as a person, and when you are shopping the trends, take note on what speaks to you. If certain trends make you feel great just by looking at them, chances are they will look great when you are wearing them as well!

2.Know your fit. One of the biggest mistakes people make when purchasing clothes is that they buy the wrong size, or try to wear something that looks good on someone 2 sizes smaller. If the clothes you are wearing do not complement your best features, then they will look terrible on you no matter how expensive or designer they are. Know your fit, be honest with yourself, and work around it. There are many trends that any size can wear, with some body types not being able to wear every thing that hits the runway. And that rule goes for whether you are small, medium, or large girls. Even the size zeroes make mistakes when it comes to this rule.

3. Create a signature “piece”. Use a favoured accessory or color that you keep consistent with every outfit, and this will make your everyday trend stand out in a crowd of others that are wearing the same thing. This piece may even be the same piece you use time and time again, or pieces that have a theme like butterflies, hearts, or things of that nature. Choose something that reflects who you are and what you like and this will speak volumes about you to the world without you having to say a word. Choosing this signature piece also works good when someone uses things to remember a person by.....so make sure you choose a good piece, to leave a great impression.


4. Remember that every look is not for you. When we see the hottest fashions hit the runway, sometimes we want to take all of those looks of the season to wear so we can feel we weren't left out. Don't worry, every style and trend will not be for everybody. That's why there are thousands of designers, so that we can find the styles and fashions that work best for us. Some of the items on the runway will only be for the tall ladies, and some will work in the favor of the average chicks. So just take your time when shopping to find out what works best for you.

I hope that these few tips will help you out when you are creating your look for not just the Summer, but your personal style in general!
