Some say fashion does not
matter, but it has the potential
to reflect who you are.
Some have all the right elements
to putting an outfit
together but need some help
in sprucing it up.
In each of the pictures you
will see some outfits that
have great potential, but need
a little boost.
One tip to making any outfit
make a bold statement is
dark denim, whether you are
dressing up or down.
In the first picture (A) this
guy can certainly use a tune
up. Although his classic yellow-
hooded sweat shirt may
be a staple in his closet, it can
certainly use more to be an
“outfit.” He could start by
adding something underneath.
Layering is a great tip to
give anyone a more put
together look without too
much effort. A white button
down or long white Henley
will provide this look easily.
Lastly, his denim would
match better if it were dark to
help the yellow pop.
In the second picture (B),
this girl had the right idea.
With her ability to layer and
add accessories, it just needs
some help and a push in the
right direction. Her blue button
down cardigan makes a
bold statement with her gold
buttons.
The hardware on clothing
can always help to pull an
outfit together. With such a
dark color, the best option for
underneath is a solid neutral
such as a cream or sand, even
a white long sleeve tee underneath.
When it comes to her
denim, she should also try a
dark wash to pair with this
ensemble.
Her ability to accessorize
stands out and makes a statement
about her outfit. This
scarf definitely helps pull
everything together, keeping
it unique, while keeping her
warm.
In this next picture (C) this
boy seems more concerned
with keeping warm than
what he’s wearing. His Nike
sweat shirt could be traded in
for a plain thermal long
sleeve tee shirt, keeping him
warm and comfy. A plain
shirt paired with dark denim
is a good way for men to
accessorize and look hot
without a lot of effort.
This subtle combination
leaves room for accessorizing
with anything from a leather
belt to nice boots, even a hat.
Lastly, his coat is a great wool
mix that will keep him warm
in the winter, but the color is
a bit dull and won’t do much
for the rest of his outfit.
He should try and pair it
with a chocolate brown,
black, or red suede or leather
coat. This will amp up his
look, while keeping him
toasty.
In the last picture (D), this
girl started out well with her
sweater vest.
The colors, however, do not
do much for her. When picking
a staple like a sweater
vest, try and look for a solid
color like black or blue, etc.
This solid vest paired with a
corresponding color underneath
will completely transform
her look from boring to
chic.
She should try a dark vest
and a light, white long sleeve
tee to complete her look.
Her jeans should be a darker,
giving a more sophisticated
look.
Everyone has their own
style.
That is what makes fashion
fun.
When shopping and getting
dressed, find a look best suits
your style, and represents
you as a person, and adult.
With that said, please leave
your pajamas and slippers at
home and try on some boots
and a pair of denim.
You can still be comfy in
cool clothes.
