How to use your clothes smarter?
My tip or trick is to wear the same base clothes but change all of your accessories.
From top to toe. Change:
* Your Hairstyle or headband.
* Or put a hat on.
* Wear sunnies or change your glasses.
* Put a belt on or change your belt.
* Put a different nail polish colour.
* Change your shoes.
* Change your bag.
* Even change your make-up, if you dare.
Or do the opposite, wear the same accessories and change your base outfit.
Extra idea:
This is a trick I use when I'm really busy, too tired to think of a new outfit, or
in a huge rush to go somewhere:
* I prepare my outfit from the night before
so, I don't have to the next day when I'm getting ready.
* Sometimes I don't feel like wearing that outfit
so, I choose another one.
* This is a great indicator of what type of mood I'm in.
So just go with the flow and go with the new outfit instead.
Why buy more?:
* I hate wastage in life, and I really don't like buying things
that don't get used. This way, when you use your things more
in a more creative way, you save money, save time, save
your sanity, and never worry what anyone else thinks.
* Only buy essential items as you go. And replace stained,
wholly, painted, ratty looking clothes. Use them as rags.
* There is no reason to buy more when you need less.
Tricks of the trade:
* Don't tell anyone but the best trick is to try all of your clothes
at home, try new outfits, swap items you normally put together
and google ideas and try them straight away.
* Take photos of each outfit and then put them in a digital folder or
print them and make a scrapbook or folder with them.
* Try a new outfit every time you go out of the house.
* Take photos of yourself wearing these outfits, like a full body
selfie in the mirror. And look at them in a month and analyse
if these outfits suited you and what you could add or change.
Or scrap them all together.
What Have We Learnt So Far:
* Learn your body type.
* Dress for your body type.
* Find out your colour palette.
* Dress according to your style.
* Use all of your clothes on rotate.
* Replace any damaged items in your wardrobe.
* Declutter once you have too much excess.
* Be happy with yourself and your wardrobe.
