Ask The Stylist: What are the commonest fashion mistakes made by women?

We all make fashion mistakes. This is because the standards are set so high and this is done by celebrity women who by the way have stylists. This makes it very hard to pull off a really impeccable look every time. That said, it is always best to set your own rules and stick to them. That is how personal style is created.

Here are some common fashion mistakes which are very avoidable

1. Wearing clothes because they are trendy, even when you don’t feel confident in them

Always put confidence first. The way you look hugely depends on how you feel. Wearing shoes that are uncomfortable because they are trendy will always end into a disaster. Always wear clothes and shoes that make you feel and look confident. If you don’t feel beautiful in it even if it is the hottest trend, don’t wear.

2. Wearing clothes that don’t fit

The year is 2015. Everything needs to flatter your body. Remember that ill fitting clothes always make you look a few years older. Visit a tailor and adjust everything that you feel is not as fitting as it should be.

3. Not dressing appropriately

 This is the commonest mistake. Right now it is obscenely hot. Wear clothes with very light fabric. Also opt for whites as opposed to blacks. Leather is really trendy but not during this weather. Dressing appropriately goes beyond that to the kind of events you are dressing up for. Some clothes won’t look appropriate in an office whilst they”ll do when you are relaxing with friends on a picnic.

Happy dressing
