The Power of Fashion in Our Lives

Do’s and Don’ts in Fashion

Fashion has a huge effect on people’s lives along with the society as a whole by defining style and culture. Fashion also plays a part in how people see themselves, and it’s just one part of what defines a culture. Each area of the world has a different style of dress, and it often portrays the customs of values of the religion, culture or country. Fashion also contributes to a person's confidence and self-esteem on a daily basis. It is the armor to survive the reality of everyday life.

There are lots of do's and don'ts in fashion that needs to be rectified such as:

Wearing the Wrong Size - One of the most important things to consider when it comes to shopping, is ensuring you are wearing the right size. Fitted garments do nothing to flatter the figure – whether they be too small or too baggy. Not Evolving - Although fashion has a tendency of repeating themselves, one mistake that many women make is not evolving their fashion sense. Do not get caught up in one era for the rest of your life. You can still maintain your sense of style by approaching it with a more modern twist.

Trying Too Hard - Do not wear all the seasons trends at one time. Layering up on trends or bling can actually be distracting from the outfit. Mix and match clothes to give a new look and style.

Dress for the Occasion - Always know the environment and dress accordingly. The worst thing is to be under or over dressed for a situation. When in doubt, always inquire about the dress code prior to an event so you can plan ahead. Dress for your Body Type - Please know your body. There are a lot of things we all want to wear, but it’s most important to find the right piece that accentuates your body and it is extremely important to be comfortable in what you’re wearing.

Dress for Yourself - It’s crucial to understand that women only dress for themselves. We should not focus our mindset on trying to get the attention of another person, impressing someone, or pretending to be someone we are not. And worst of all, do not feel the need to compete with another woman. We dress to feel confident, love ourselves and enjoy the art of fashion. The best accessory is truly confidence and the strength to hold your head high.

Style is something each of us already has, all we need to do is find it –Diane Von Furstenberg. To conclude, fashion is everywhere around us existing in different figure and size. It is impossible to keep yourself away from the ever-changing fashion trends and to experiment with them. Remember fashion is for the convenience of the human being, do not let it make you it’s slave.
