What does it take to dress well? Having lots of money? Well,
that helps but most of all it takes organization, knowing
yourself and your body and taking the time to get it right.
Being well dressed is not about wearing the latest fashions; it
is about knowing yourself and the styles that look best on you
regardless of the latest trends. Keeping up with the latest
trends is not only time consuming and costly but hard work.
If you keep up with current trends and you do it correctly then
you probably have an eye for line and design; being fashionable
is important to you and because you are a natural, it comes
easy. However, for most women this is not the case. For some,
it's a struggle to put colors together let alone patterns,
shapes and fabric. To bring those elements together and keep
them in harmony with hair, makeup and accessories can be a huge
challenge.
The elements of being well dressed:
1. Organization: An organized dresser knows what she owns and
the items she needs to complete a look. When she goes shopping
she has a list and sticks to it. Her clothes are neat and
organized where they can be easily seen and outfits can be put
together quickly.
2. Knowing yourself: A well-dressed woman knows her personal
style so she is never tempted to buy an item that is not perfect
for her. She has accessed her lifestyle, her personality and
knows what style looks best on her and what she feels most
comfortable wearing.
3. Knowing your body type: Women who know their body type and
what lines look best on them feel better about the choices they
make. Shopping is much simpler because unflattering shapes can
be passed over and a lot of money saved when she knows what
looks best.
So, you are organized, you know yourself and your body type. Is
there anything else? A well-dressed woman is able to take all
these elements and put them together with ease. She knows how to
match styles, how accentuate, what to wear to certain events and
is confident about her choices. In every situation she is feels
confident about how she is dressed and is free to tackle the
business at hand.
You may be thinking, whew!! That's a lot to learn. The bottom
line is it can be learned. Everyone can be well dressed if they
take the time and learn about themselves and what styles look
best on them.
