How to avoid fashion overdoses?

It is great to be high on style quotient and keep oneself in sync with the latest fashion trends but overdosing ourselves with too much stuff can also make us look like a zombie. Hence it becomes imperative for us to know certain essentials to avoid can kind of fashion clashes.

Here’s how!

If you see yourself wasting too much money on fads it you need to control it by assessing the last five things you’ve just purchased. This’ll help you maintain balance.
If there are three or more items touted as the season’s ‘must-haves’, you should immediately pull strings as this clearly indicates that you are close to being a fashion victim.
A great way to know this is to examine your closet. Yes, just see your closet to see if more than half of your wardrobe is already out of style as per your favorite fashion sources. If this is true, you must learn to judiciously spend on clothes as seasonal spurts of fashion soon fade away and you’re not left with much to experiment in the future.

It is important for you to ask yourself if you are buying fashion fads because you really like them or only because you want to use them like a fashion security blanket to stay in the league. Be true to yourself and completely avoid shopping something just because you think donning will make you acceptable. Style is a relative quotient and it does not come with apparels alone but also with the way you carry yourself and the amount of confidence you ooze in your own skin.

Another simple way of knowing this would to be before buying your next designer item, ask yourself if you are buying it just because it that chi chi logo on it or because of its beauty as a product? If the later one is the answer, buy it or else stop right there!
Never, ever wear your sunglasses indoors.

So these are few effective ways to track if you are into the vicious circle of going beyond necessary to flaunt trends that might even confuse you as a person! The idea is to be yourself and most confident in your own skin!

Wardrobe essentials for short women!

We all know that height plays an imperative role when it comes to draping ourselves. There are some rules for dressing specific for every body type. Many a times we end up goofing our look because of our lack of knowledge about what to wear and how. I have often seen healthy women wearing clothes that make them look plumper and short women sporting ensembles that only seem to lessen their height. It is sad to see that despite spending bucks on expensive clothing, we still pick stuff that does not ideally suit us the best. In this article, I will be talking about some dressing tips that’ll help short women look taller and slimmer. It’s all about creating illusions! Read on!

Short frames should always focus on elongating their bodies. I mean creating such illusions of course. So the best trick to do this is to wear dresses which sport vertical lines or similar patterns. In this regard, the best option is to for monochromes which work best for all occasions. This does not mean that you exaggerate your clothing by wearing so much of it that you start looking like a zebra. Avoid that. Wearing clothes with too many vertical lines is also not advisable. For that matter even wearing paired garments both with lined patterns should be avoided. Summer and fall collections have some amazing pieces of dresses – one pieces and pairs as well that’ll give you all that you need for the perfect occasion.

If you are slightly towards the healthier side, then please do not wear clothes that are loose or baggy because wearing them does not in anyway hide your flab. They only make you look shabby which is a big turn off. So pick clothes that fit you well and for that it becomes imperative that you buy stuff which is of extremely good quality. I am sure you wouldn’t want hanging threads from the hem lines and tattered rims soon after the second washing.

Wearing clothes that are too tight is always a risky affair so please avoid that. Moreover seeing someone dressed in clothes that are too tight does not give a very pleasant look. This is so because it attracts attention on the wrong part of your figure.

Last but not the least, wearing straight pants with heels particularly stilettos are the best way to look tall and slim. So now that you know what’s best for you, gear up for a shopping spree and get those eye balls rolling. Happy shopping!
