Think about the accessories

One of the first things to think about would be adding accessories to your outfits. It is a great way to change how an outfit looks, simply by changing what you wear with it. The first thing to add to your outfit would be jewelry. Whether it is statement pieces from websites like jewelryofegypt.com or something a bit more simple and formal for a work event, jewelry can make the difference. It can help dress up an outfit or make more of a feature out of an item of clothing. Other factors to consider would be things like belts, hats and even mixing things up with a choice of sunglasses to really make the difference to your outfits.

How do you create your outfit?

If you are really thinking about your style and appearance right now then consider spending some time thinking about how you create your outfits in the first place. Do you have particular thoughts in mind such as comfort or work related. Do you always choose the same thing over and over. Are you afraid of mixing things up a little or trying something new? Or are you the opposite and perhaps you think your style choices need taming. Knowing where your thoughts come from to make the decisions on what you wear then means you have the power to make some tweaks and changes.

It is all in the footwear

Footwear is a big one, especially if you are wanting to glam up an outfit. A simple jeans and t-shirt combination can easily be changed and turned into something more just by adding a pair of heels to it. Footwear can be anything from the flamboyant and crazy to the statement and classic courts you can get. It really is a case of wearing what you love on your feet. If you don’t feel daring in any other aspect of your clothing, your footwear is one area you can really push the boat in color and style. Without feeling self conscious about being too over the top.

What is the occasion?

A great way to focus on the glam element of your outfit is to consider what you are getting dressed for. Even if you are heading off to work it doesn’t mean that you can’t add a few glamorous touches in terms of jewelry and shoes, for example. Knowing the occasion you are dressing for can help you determine how far you want to go in terms of how you look and your appearance.

It isn’t just about the clothes that you wear

An outfit is just an outfit, right? No matter what you wear it is all about the finishing touches that you add that can transform the way you look. Your hairstyle, for example, can change the look of an outfit simply by you deciding if you are wearing it up or wearing it down. Your hair is just as much an accessory as anything else. The same can be said for makeup. You don’t need to step out of your comfort zone if that isn’t you, but tweaking your makeup such as adding. A bold lip color, can again change the way an outfit looks. Another aspect of your appearance is actually something that can’t necessarily be seen or bought, it is your attitude. Confidence alone can really change how a person appears to someone else. Feeling just as good as you look can make a big difference.

Don’t be afraid of color

Color is a big one. Color is one of those things that can change how you look, especially if you stick with colors that suit your skin tone. There are warm colors and there are cool colors. Both of which will look different on different people. For example, a person with very pale skin may not be able to carry off a pastel shade or even white as it may wash them out and not enable their features to take pride of place. But black could work really well. Adding color to your wardrobe doesn’t mean you just stick with bright ones, it is about matching up the right colors for you.

Being organized with capsule wardrobes

Finally, being organized with your wardrobe is an essential way for you to be more aware of the items you do have, and it can encourage you to be more creative. Having too much in your wardrobe means you are likely to pull out the same things over and over and less likely to mix things up or try new things. This is when a. Capsule wardrobe could really help. Minimizing your wardrobe and leaving you with items that you have thought about and that can be easily mixed with other items to create different outfits. It’s a great way to start mixing patterns and textures as well as different color combinations. Websites like huffingtonpost.com have some great tips to help you get started.
