5 Fashion Crimes You May Be Committing
Content: Fashion is largely a personal adventure where the individual seeks to portray their personality through clothing and accessories. There is no clear cut right or wrong way to dress and no set of golden rules to guide our wardrobe choices. However, there are a few mistakes that we seem to make on a regular basis. Here are 5 fashion crimes you may be guilty of committing.
* Dressing to Young for Your Age
While fashion isn't always age discriminate there are an abundance of trends that are aimed at the twenty to thirty something demographic. |
Women above that demographic often run the risk of dressing to young for their own good. While there is no need to fill your closet with elastic waist bands and goofy sweaters upon your thirtieth birthday, you should practice caution when it comes to trends. If you feel something may be too young for you, you're probably right. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to look young with out cashing in on every runway trend.
* Buying Cheap to Save Money
We all like to save a little money when possible. Buying quality goods on clearance is a great way to do that. Unfortunately, buying clothing that is generally just cheaper isn't always the right way to go. More often than not, when it comes to clothing, you get what you pay for. Cheaper clothing often tears, rips, wears out, or doesn't make it through the washer. Replacing items that couldn't take the stress of daily life can end up costing you a lot more in the long run. If you are looking to purchase a clothing item you wear regularly, spend a little extra or wait for the higher quality items to go on sale.
* Going to Extremes
Every now and then you want to change up your style and put a little excitement in your closet. It's great to try different things but do so slowly. Investing in the latest trends all at once will not only cost you major bucks but can look a little tacky if not ridiculous. Update your wardrobe in small doses. This will give you time to introduce new trends into your wardrobe and find out which ones work best for you.
* Neglecting Your Style for the Latest Trend
Fashion is an expression of the self. You should choose clothing that suits your personality and way of life. That said, not every trend is meant for every woman. Don't wear something just because it is "in." Invest in clothing that makes you comfortable and brings out your personality. Buying clothing just because it's trendy isn't good for you or your wallet. You will either be uncomfortable while donning your new digs or they will remain unused collecting dust in your closet.
* Getting into a Fashion Rut
It's okay to know you're own personal style and to buy your clothing accordingly. Unfortunately, many women fall victim to fashion monotony and never explore outside the realm of their own unchanging closet. Every now and then change things up a bit by adding a article of clothing you normally wouldn't buy. It doesn't have to be outlandish or ultra trendy, just a little bit different from the norm. |
