Stylin' Tip: Give It a Try!

One of the phrases I hate to hear women say is “Oh, I could never pull that off”. Why not? I think women should take the leap and try blending current trends with their personal style. Don’t forget that the old cliché stands true: You never know unless you try!

Some tips to make it easier for you are below:

Tip #1:
Start Small. Work in one new thing at a time. Some cute earrings first, then a waist-belt, then a bow headband, then an awesome pair of heels. Week by week you can build to the look until you are confident enough to wear everything together (you can by the way).

Tip #2:
Know Who To Ask For Advice. If you are planning on wearing that feather hair clip for the first time, don’t ask the friend who hasn’t changed her hairstyle in 10 years if it looks good – it will only make you both angry. You need to find someone whose style you admire and who you don't feel competitive with. Don’t be afraid to ask that style maven at work how she does it or what she thinks of your look. Most people love to share their tips and also love compliments.

Tip #3:
Don’t Abandon Reason. A new look or accessory is great, but lets consider the time and place. A regular office workday might not be the appropriate time to show off the new fedora, but an evening dinner date - go for it!

Tip #4:
Fit Rules Still Apply. Don’t wear something if it doesn’t fit properly. Those short shorts that give you a muffin top and show a bunch of cellulite are not a good idea no matter how "of the moment" the style is. Clothing still has to fit and flatter you in order for it to look good.

Tip #5:
Don’t Get Theatrical. This is all about enhancing your look. If you are too bold, you could be screaming "look at my new accessories!" Try to think modern and not trendy and work within a comfortable color palette. Add style with a cute printed scarf and not an entire printed dress. As noted in point 1, work in small steps to achieve your look.

Tip #6:
Confidence is key. The only way you can wear anything is if you believe you look good in it yourself. You have to love it. You have to want to be wearing it. And trust me, if you believe it, others will too. Don’t be intimidated by all the stares you will be getting - it is because you look mega hot! Trust.

So try out that new item today and get ready to turn some heads!
