Finding your personal style is possibly the biggest challenge in fashion. you get influenced by trends, by celebs, by people around you and what they think, by the media and at the end you don't really know anymore what to think, and where to start .
so, here we are going to talk about How to find your personal style.
1. Assess current wardrobe
We want you guys to start with your own wardrobe, because it can be so intimidating to, like, jump off the deep end into the Inter webs and try to figure out like, from scratch what your style is looking at the clothes that you already wear and that you already love because that's gonna give you a good hint to what you actually feel confident in. We also feel like most of us have a couple of pieces that we really love, that are kind of pointing us in a direction of style, but we just have not brought the rest of our wardrobe around to fit those, like, a few pieces that we love, so we would suggest you guys do an experiment . 10 ways to put together a proper wardrobe
2. Finding inspiration
This is the fun part where you can get out your phone and your laptop and scroll through Instagram and Pinterest and old movies and old magazines and runway shows, Instagram and Instagram explore page are a huge resource for trying to find your style, before we get any further into this section, we want to say that we are looking for style inspiration not a reason to hate ourselves and those things are sometimes a fine line on Instagram. We looking at a pretty girl's Instagram and wanting face to look like her face is not called fashion inspiration, that's just called hating on ourselves for not being born with different features, we know it can be hard sometimes but when you are looking for fashion inspiration try to your best to separate this persona and like the seemingly perfect life of somebody online who's wearing it with the actual outfit and just seeing like, is that good fashion?
And would we feel confident in that outfit.
Source 1: Instagram
Instagram is a huge source of inspiration, both for fashion and just like, photography styles.
Some Instagram accounts for inspiration
Source 2: Pinterest
Pinterest is one of the best source of inspiration
Source 3: Magazines + movies
Old magazines and movies are also great resources.
So whatever inspiration source you choose, critically as you are looking at each of those photos, if there's an outfit that you are not attracted to, before you scroll pass it, think about, what do I like about that?
3. Buying clothes
This is our favorite part, even though you are probably feeling real good about your new style and you want to buy a whole new wardrobe, we would recommend please do not do that, impulsively buying yourself a whole new wardrobe is how you end up with a whole wardrobe of clothes and $0 in your bank account , so we recommend choosing five pieces that you really really want and that you think are most vital to your style, before you go shopping, make sure you list out the five pieces also check how to shop online like a pro ?
4. Practice makes perfect
Practice, practice, practice people do not think of fashion as something that you need to practice, they just think of being stylish as something that you are born with it is, absolutely not, just like you would not expect a surgeon with zero training to be able to operate on you, you should not expect yourself to have this, like amazing, celebrity level style of fashion, when you have not given yourself any time to practice.
