12 Clothing Mistakes You May Be Making
Some of us get all dressed up by our mood, or the occasion. No matter how many how-to-dress blogs and videos we have all seen, a couple of us tend to make at least one rookie mistake while dressing every now and then. Either we aren’t careful enough to catch the mistake, or we are so unaware that we couldn’t care less about it. We have them — the mistakes almost everyone makes with what they wear. Read on to know them all.
Failing to Accessorize Your Clothes
If you want to tone down your clothes, you can wear a black head gear or a bright red bag. You can define your waist line by wearing a belt and tuck in your shirt. If you are not a fan of belts and do not want your waist to draw attention – simply leave your shirt unbuttoned – this will create line breaks in your outfit. This trick slims you out in an instant. If you want to nail this look, you need to get a blouse in a color akin to your pants.
A Loose Shirt Styled With A Skirt
If you’re wearing a wide jumper, it can make you look short in the legs and torso. So as not to appear short, only lift the jumper with the help of a belt to give the impression of a “stretched” torso.
Jean washing frequency is not too frequent
Don’t wash your clothes too often – or in the wrong way – but, on the other hand, do not let them become dirty either. Take, for example, pants made with 100% cotton, which stretch due to the fibers becoming slack when you wear them. But regularly washing up should prevent this. Hot water shrinks denim when washed.
Tugging Down Your Top To Cover Stomach
Now if you pull the top down too much it looks like your body is two different sizes. This certainly is the case, particularly when the top layer is a different color from the bottom layer. Wearing an undone jumper or jacket over it and tucking the shirt into the skirt.
Not Wearing Your Bra Right
When the back of your bra is nearing your shoulder blades, you could be in the wrong bra. If you do not have enough support, you will develop pain. Invest in yourself and get a bra that has a shoulder band that is horizontal across your back by getting your measurements and buying the right bra.
Concealing Your Midsection, Your Wrist, And Your Neck
When we gain weight it is understandable to want to hide under mountains of clothes. However, we really shouldn’t be hiding our waists, necks, or ankles. They are the essential elements that allow us a facade of slim femininity.
Putting On An Overly Tight Top
Pushing for the same tidy look wearing a fitted shirt will lead to some massive gaps in the buttonholes. A button that pops threatens discomfort, constricted breathing, and shame. A button-up shirt should hang flat and straight when buttoned — with no gaping between the buttons. You could also hide the buttons by choosing a more relaxed fit, simply adding one button, or sewing along the seams.
Wearing All Black (or White) Almost Everyday
We all refrain from monochrome outfits because we assume they too plain and boring. Wear a bottom that provides width to your overall look, If it is a skirt, make sure you tuck the top in, Giving an illusion of a smaller waist.
Shorts That Keep Rolling Up
Annoyed with having to repeatedly tug down your riding shorts? That may be a bit too awkward and expose too much skin than you really want it too. Before buying in the right length of shorts for you, do a few squats in them.
Wearing Vertical Lines
If you have a bigger vertical dimension, you will look thinner. Wear the right short and just leave your coat open. The horizontal stripe action should not be happening around the belly button zone.
Wearing High Heels Too Often
Wearing high heels or shoes with a high or pointed toe can lead to deformities – Hammertoes, Corns and more. Narrow toe boxes in footwear can lead to them developing on the toes and other areas on the foot. High heels can cause foot, knee, back pain. Fortunately, the best time to shop shoes is late in the day so that your feet have had the opportunity to swell up after standing all day on hard surfaces. You need a about a ½ inch of extra space past your longest toe in the toe box of the shoe. In case heels are the need of day, flats are even more ideal than high heels.
Wearing Double Denims Of The Same Color
Since total denim is on trend again, you can pair a denim shirt or jacket with your favorite pair of jeans. You were not required to select the top and lower one half based on your choice of colour. Color contrast — What color contrast will do is make your entire look very interesting and alive.
No matter what it says in all those fashion blogs and all the influencers you follow, your outfit should start with your love. Wear clothes that you feel comfortable in. So, what fashion mistakes do you indulge in?
