Joy of clothes – How To Dress For Your Style Personality
Dressing with style takes strategy – you just can’t wear what you like. By using your clothing’s colour, details, fabric and fit, details, pattern, and proportion to lengthen, slim and direct attention to exactly where you want it (and away from the places you don’t), you will be able to create a look that is flattering ,balanced and fits with your own style personality.Your personality is what pulls your whole look together. It’s your personality that dictates your style, which is your own interpretation of fashion and how you like to wear clothes together. If you ignore your personality and only buy clothes because they are the latest must haves or trends of the season, you will lose your identity and your look will lack focus and your personal signature style. As a result of this you won’t get the best value for your investment buys, because you’ve tried to copy a look which might be great on others but isn’t right for you. The clothes you wear and how you wear them are influenced by factors such as: age, build, life style, environment, budget, culture and personal preferences. As you progress through life, your look will change many times. Knowing your style personality will enable you to feel comfortable in your outfit, whatever the occasion.
