Beyond Fashion: The Elements of Style

Have you ever noticed people who wear high standard expensive and stylish dresses but still they don’t look as cool as they should look. This shows that even the wardrobe full of fancy dresses and accessories can not make a person look stylish. This all happens due to lack of knowledge of some basic ideas. Here we have discussed simple tips of how to avoid such problems; they may bring a great change in your personality.

1. Take care of your appearance

Expensive outfits are not enough to look good. For this you need to be careful about your skin, hairs, and nails and so on. Greasy and straggly hair, chewed fingernails, unplucked eye brows, leg stubble and gross skin give an untidy look. Clean your unwanted hair regularly. Also take healthy diet which will bring a glow on to your skin. So maintain your look and appearance.

2. How to maintain even the cheap clothes

It is not necessary to always purchase the pricey dresses and outfits. Rather you can look even beautiful in cheap dresses only if manage your dresses in a proper way, means you should iron the clothes properly. Iron is your wonderful friend that takes care of your clothes.
Also, take care of your shoes, safety pins, and lint rollers. Always polish your shoes in a way that they look as new. Keep the stain remover with you also.

3. Do not accessorize your personality

Whenever you are going out for any function, dinner or party then dress in a balanced way that is do not accessorize your personality. Few days back I saw a girl who was wearing so many jewelry on just one outfit. Hair pins, beaded necklace, butterfly hairclips, bangle bracelets and earrings were looking so much over loaded all at a time that instead of looking good she was looking pathetic.

4. How to improve your personality

Here is an excellent idea of how you can improve yourself; this is what I do in my case. I don’t believe on mirrors but pictures are the best piece to know how you look. For improving yourself pick out any of your favorite picture and see what is attracting you in that picture, why you like this! After analyzing the lights, hairstyle, makeup, colors of the dress or any other reasons. Decide carefully and then start grooming your weaken parts of the body.

High Heels a no no in pregnancy

Pregnant women are damaging their feet by tottering around in high heels according to The Society of Chiropodists and Podiatrists.The society polled 1,000 pregnant women and found that many regularly wore ballet pumps, flip flops, high heels and Ugg boots.But Lorraine Jones from the society reckons none of these women’s shoes are suitable for expectant mums because they don’t offer enough support.

And according to the survey half of the women polled feel under pressure to follow the latest celebrity trends yet seven out of 10 women admitted to suffering from foot problems including swollen ankles (37 per cent), swollen feet (45 per cent) and arch and heel pain (16 per cent) while pregnant.

Instead the society are urging women to wear supportive, wide fitting shoes to minimise discomfort and avoid long-term damage. Podiatrist Lorraine Jones said: “Weight gain and hormonal changes in pregnancy have a huge impact on the body.
“Muscles and ligaments soften and stretch because of an increase in the ovarian hormone relaxin, which makes your feet more prone to ankle and ligament strains on a daily basis.

“High heels alter your posture, shorten your calf muscles and place increased pressure on your back and knees.”In pregnancy this places extra pressure on your joints when they are already under strain – which can result in a host of foot, leg and back problems and could increase the likelihood of falls.”

However, it’s not all bad news for pregnant women they can still look fashionable and wear comfortable ladies shoes ”There are so many different shoes available today that you can still wear fashionable footwear which is supportive and comfortable,” said Ms Jones.

And there is one trend that can easily be embraced the low- heel or petit Stiletto as Vogue has dubbed them. Ms Jones says that as a rule, she says women should opt for 1.2in (3cm) heels as they shift weight a little further forward on to the feet, which can help alleviate discomfort. So a pair of low heels, as long as they are supportive, could be just the thing for pregnant legs.

Don’t follow the customs; make your own style

Like in all fields there are some customs and trends that are just followed for long without any hard and fast rule. Similarly in fashion industry there are some combinations that are never made together. Like navy and black, cream gold and white and silver jewelry, white just before the Labor Day is not worn. These are some of the fashion tattoos that were made long ago and been followed till today. But be prepared now as all these customs and rules are going to be broken in this season. The revolution is about to come.

Since now there was a trend to match each and every thing of your dressing like from clothing to shoes and hair pins. But it’s a fact that it is very difficult to maintain such a dressing and in this busy life no one has time to think about matching the apparels and secondly all the same matched and perfectly coordinated dressing looks quite boring now. But these days the trend is changing. This season you will see total opposite changes in style and designs. The colors that were never mixed will be introduced. Diverse colors combinations will be made. So if you want to boom in this season don’t try to match any combination.

Now the glamour is changing in an interesting line. The changing trends have now changed the mind sets of people also. People with high aesthetic sense of fashion are also changing their minds for this new trend. Like I have seen many of my very fashionable friends who have started wearing dresses without any matching; one of my friends wore the leopard print belt with jeans and total different top with it. But a diverse combination doesn’t mean that wear a dress that not even look cool to your eyes. So make such a diverse combination that clash in a good way. Another friend of mine has started purchasing jewelry and accessories of uncommon colors.

This trend brings a great idea as well that is do fashion but don’t become fashion victim in the way that don’t copy anyone style rather go for your own look. The purpose behind this idea is that don’t waste time on making perfect matches. It is advised that think about the customs that you have never broken and this time go for such a design confidently!
