    Not having a good fashion sense can wreck havoc on your ego. If you’ve been a fashion victim too long, it’s time to take some simple steps toward improvement. These tips and tricks will get you on the path to looking great!

    If you are not very tall, you should be careful about wearing sweaters that are too long. While you do not want to wear something that is so short that it resembles a cropped top, wearing something with too much length will only make you appear to be much shorter than you actually are.

    It is not very easy to wear plaid, particularly when you are looking to adopt a look that is softer than you normally have. If you must wear plaid, make sure that you pair it with something that is feminine like skinny jeans or a bag that has ruffles on it.

    Do not wear your hair too dark if you have lighter skin and/or lighter eyes. While darker hair looks nice on people that have darker eyes and skin tones, it will only make you look washed out. If you must darken your hair, put some streaks in it in order to brighten them up.

    If you are carry to much weight and desire a more leaner look, choose a dark colored blouse over a skirt that is equally as dark. Dark colors help emphasize your good parts and tone down the overweight extras you don’t want people to notice. Your skirt needs a stretchy, elastic waistband so that it can be more comfortable to wear.

    Don’t make fashion impulse buys. When you buy on impulse, you often make bad choices. The clothing may not fit as well as you hoped, or it doesn’t truly work with anything in your closet. Before making the buy ask yourself if you really need it, and if you have items that can compliment it.

    Embrace your imperfections. Although society says that we should all look a certain way, the truth is that our imperfections really make us beautiful. For instance, think of Cindy Crawford and her mole. She just would not look the same without the mole, and it actually makes her a beautiful, unique woman. Everyone has some type of imperfection, even if you can’t visibly see it.

    Dress for your body type. Take the time to understand your shape, and how to use clothes to enhance your natural assets. Women who know how to work with their body, instead of hiding it, are the ones people notice when they walk into a room. Be proud of your shape, and work with it to boost your fashion esteem.

    The most popular colors nowadays for clothing are pastel colors. More specifically, mint green has been making a huge comeback this season. So, if you are into keeping up with the latest styles, purchase a nice mint green dress, pair of heels, purse and use green makeup and nail polish.

    As was stated in the opening of this article, it is no fun being a fashion disaster. Luckily, it is easy to improve your sense of fashion. These tips will help you look more fashion-foward than ever before.
