Find Your Sense Of Style Before Filling Up That Shopping Cart!

On the importance of developing your personal style before going on that shopping spree for not all clothes look good on everyone!

Nothing like a well put together outfit to make you feel good about your day.

A lot of times fashion is overstated. For many, fashion is associated with brands and good looks. But the reality is that neither matter if you know how to pull off a look.

Are you comfortable in your skin?

Most people seldom realise that their look from the outside depends on how they feel from within. If you are comfortable in your skin then what you wear will project self acceptance and inner confidence, else you will feel like a fish out of water.

Most people spend time and money on makeup and clothing but still aren’t satisfied with the outcome.

My teenage years were spent trying to pull off a gothic tomboyish look, I dressed myself up in anti-fit jeans, tight tops that sat just above the belt line, black nail polish and used a thick coal pencil to highlight my already very large eyes.

Find your sense of style, and go with it

While my best friend pulled off the same look with style, it made me look sleazy.

As I grew into my twenties, I realised that elegance was a better fit to my personality. A casual shirt with khaki trousers or slim fit denims, and a tote with just a touch of kajal and lip gloss did the trick. I was finally who I was meant to be.
