Creating outfits is a difficult and frustrating task when you have no idea where to start. All my life I have looked at my closet full of clothes and have had no idea how to make them all work together. Once I started my college career and had to dress casually for class and started dressing more casually for daily activities, I learned how to match jeans of different colors with the perfect blouse. In this mainstay article, I will show how to find matching outfits for couples.
First of all, you need to make sure you have the basics when it comes to clothing. When shopping, you need to make sure that you have several different styles of jeans. There are many styles that include boot cut, flared, skinny jeans, and have a different color wash. Jeans are the first thing you need in a closet and are essential for any outfit. Make sure you buy the style of jeans that is the most comfortable for you and that you are most confident wearing.
After you have a pair of your favorite jeans, you should also buy a pair of neutral-colored pants. These are pants that you can combine with anything for a special or elegant occasion, be it a job interview or a date.
Lastly, for pants, you need a pair of casual skirts in different styles and patterns that can be essential for a formal or informal setting. Skirts are one of those garments that you can put on with a cute tank top or blouse and make a perfect outfit in seconds.
Moving on to the tops, in my closet, I have a section for simple t-shirts. These shirts are amazing to wear if you're going to slip into a cardigan and run to the store, or if a statement necklace you're dying to wear. These tees are great as they come in different styles, such as a V neck or scoop neckline, and can be extremely casual with a pair of jeans or dressed for a special occasion.
The following are the sweaters! Sweaters are a good investment. Sweaters can be pricey depending on where you shop, but they're worth it. Especially in the winter months, putting on leggings and a sweater is a comfortable and stylish look that will keep you looking and feeling great. Sweaters can also be paired with cute jeans and booties for a more stylish look. Sweaters are one of those garments that can be more striking and with more vivid colors since they do not usually have too many accessories.
Last but definitely not least, cardigans, jackets, and hoodies. I live in these. Honestly, if I'm just lazing around the house or running errands, I'll always wear a cardigan or hoodie. Hoodies are usually neutral colors as they accentuate the shirt, but they can really be dressed up or worn in colder months to show off the tank top or the shirt that is worn under the sleeves. They are warm and very comfortable, but they also make it look like you spent hours preparing.
After finding the essential clothing items you need, there is another step. Time to customize! Accessories are the most fun part of creating an outfit. Go to Francesca's or Target and pick up simple eye-catching belts, earrings, necklaces, scarves, or sunglasses to really make your outfit stand out. Adding accessories is such an easy way to add a bit of oomph to your outfit and get people to notice you. When choosing accessories, try to find pieces that go with everything, so that you can mix and match them with different outfits. Choose gold and silver pieces and accessories that differ in size and design.
Now is the time to put together the outfits. Once you have all of the things listed above, it's time to put the outfits together!
The first thing to do when putting together an outfit is to play with patterns. Patterns are always something that people deviate from because they don't know if mixing patterns is okay. Of course, it is! Mixing patterns is something that will make your outfit stand out from the crowd. It is important to use the patterns to your advantage. Patterns can help hide problem areas or accentuate others. If you love your upper body and want to draw attention to it, wear a brightly colored blouse and neutral patterned pants to draw attention away from your lower body and up the part glossy top.
The last thing I do is do what makes you happy. I can't tell you enough how important it is that you feel pretty and beautiful in your skin and your clothes. Don't buy something that's fashionable just because it's trying to fit in. That is the point of having your own style. You need to choose the things that you think look good and then be able to use some of these practical tips to put together an outfit that you like and feel great in!
