Contrary to popular belief, to look beautiful and stylish it is not at all necessary to be the owner of a million dollar bank account or the wife of an indecently rich man. Every girl can be beautiful, just note these little secrets.
1. Second hand
Commission shops, second-hand and flea markets can boast not only very affordable prices, but also unique items. For this, they are even appreciated by top stylists and bloggers interested in fashion.
Moreover, many things can be purchased in perfect condition, one has only to devote time to searching. Very often come across really high-quality, brand things. For example, sneakers Adidas, Nike and clothes from Zara, Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana and other brands.
2. Sewing and modernization of clothes
Find a good seamstress. A professional can easily sew a beautiful dress or fit it to fit your figure. Adjust the length of the skirt, jeans, pants in the hips.Perfectly fitting clothes will help create the perfect harmonious image.
You can also try yourself as a designer. The Internet is full of simple videos and text workshops that will help to paint, alter or cut things in a delicate way.
3. Basic things
Bet on a minimal base. It is in such clothes that it is worth “investing” the bulk of the funds for the wardrobe. For trending things, it is enough to leave 30% of the total amount of seasonal costs. Such an approach will save you from regrets about the outgoing fashion for shiny boots, colored fur coats or plastic bags. Inexpensive accessories will help to dilute the calm image.
- Trench in Camel color;
- Beautifully fitting blue jeans;
- Pencil skirt;
- Black turtleneck;
- White T-shirt and shirt;
- Universal dress (without print);
- Stripped vest.
It is important to remember that a truly elegant image is always about minimalism. Prefer monochrome combinations, and already add jewelry to them.
If you are not sure what to dress yourself, choose black. Such clothes are perfectly combined with other elements of the image and remain relevant always. Or do the opposite - add white color. A white T-shirt, coat or pants is, of course, terribly impractical, but always very impressive.
4. Men's wardrobe
In the past century, women managed to commit "theft of the century" and introduce into their wardrobe many elements of the men's room. And it seems that in this century this glorious tradition continues.
Borrow things from your boyfriend or husband, brother, dad. Bulky t-shirts, hoodies, sweatshirts, shirts, coarse belts and bags will make your look. It is not necessary to indulge in all serious ones - one element in your outfit will be quite enough. Free and stylish.
5. Grandma's closet
Vintage items look bright and unusual. Look at the grandmother's chest. He certainly keeps at least one thing that deserves attention. It happens that the fabric from which the dress was sewn is very high quality, and the thing is kept in good condition for a long time. Complete the image with red lipstick, a bag and shoes from second-hand, and go to a photo shoot!
You can replenish your wardrobe with a bright windbreaker, olympic shirt or T-shirt with your older brother's favorite rock band. The benefit of the era of the 90s is now in trend.
6. Design image
It is not enough to choose worthy things, it is important to submit them correctly. Tuck and roll up your sleeves, jeans, carelessly tuck the edge of the shirt into the pants, tuck it in completely or completely tie it up as a top - emphasize the figure or create a relaxed bow.
Play with the texture. Complement a light dress with a flowing structure with a cozy coarse-knit cardigan or a wool sweater. A few more accessories - and you get a bright and interesting image.
The game of contrasts works great with a set of dress plus sneakers. By the way, the dress can be in vintage style, Selena Gomez approves!
7. Accessories
Accents will help to make the image unique. To look luxurious, it is not necessary to wear jewelry every day, especially all at once. It is better to turn to inexpensive jewelry - elegant pendants, bracelets, earrings made of base metal. You can don one or two different earrings at all - why should the good disappear?
Very original options can be found at the flea market, as well as the beloved grandmother. Find a cute ring or earrings, make up a beautiful story and brag about acquiring treasure to your friends.
You can also complement the image with a red beret bought in second-hand or with vintage glasses, inexpensive socks with a colorful print (for example, bananas), or with a scarf tied around the neck and arm.
8. Hairstyle
The best thing you can do with your hair is to keep it clean and tidy. If desired, straighten them with an iron or make volumetric curls. The latter, by the way, should be slightly straightened with a hand so that they look natural. The parting can be ideally even in the center or oblique.
With a hairstyle you don’t have to bother much - stop at a light pigtail with front curls or tails out.
9. Makeup
It is also better to know the measure. An even tone of the face, perfect eyebrows, a bit of mascara, a bright accent on the eyes or lips for the evening - this is quite enough. Carefully crafted, heavy makeup is best left for a photo shoot.
10. Manicure
When the image has already been assembled and everything seems to be taken into account, it will be a shame to “pierce” because of the cracked varnish! Do not neglect this important point. After all, neglected nails can destroy all your efforts over the image. Use cuticle oil, file your nails and tint them with clear varnish - these measures are already enough to look well-groomed.
