Sometimes picking out an outfit or the right shoes is both fun and a little frustrating. It’s hard to know what might be flattering for your body type or complexion.

You might really love a color that someone once told you doesn’t look good on you at all. There are probably “fashion rules” you’ve been following your whole life even if you don’t really love the rule all that much. 

The fashion industry makes clothes, shoes, make-up, and accessories look amazing, but that doesn’t always translate to your at home look. Fashion is a frustrating thing at times no matter how much you love it. Online you can find hundreds of tips and rules but even that can be overwhelming. 

If you’re overwhelmed with all the rules and tricks out there you aren’t alone. If you need a more manageable and focused list you’re in the right place. These tips have been sorted through so you’re getting only the best.

They’re tips, not rules, and they’re here to help you start enjoying fashion again. Here are ten expert fashion tips every girl should know. 

1. Invest In Sandals That Fit You Well

Sandals are fun to wear and it’s easy to start thinking they’re a shoe you don’t have to worry about too much. That’s true to a point. If you want to slip something on and only wear them for a few minutes while you run outside you’re ok. If you’re going to be wearing sandals for any extended period you should invest in viakix sandals that fit well. 

Your feet are important and shoes that don’t fit well can do some damage. Save yourself the foot pain and other potential issues. Find at least one pair of good sandals that fit your feet well. Make sure you’re wearing them whenever you’re going out for longer than a few minutes. Your feet and the rest of your body will thank you. 

2. Use Accessories To Tie Things Together

You can make outfits look fabulous even if you aren’t sure everything is working for you that day. Think about the finishing touches like sunglasses, a handbag, and a necklace or bracelet. Sometimes the little details are the best thing you can do for an outfit on the cusp of not working. Accessories can tie everything together more than you might expect so give them a try next time.

3. Keep A Tape Measure By Your Computer

Online shopping is great but sometimes getting the best fit is tricky. Instead of guessing and hoping for the best, make use of the size charts most retailers have on their websites. Measure yourself and find the right size for you according to their charts. This is going to give you the best chance of having things fit correctly when they arrive at your house.

4. Build On Basic Staples

Your closet doesn’t have to be overflowing to give you a ton of great options for your outfits. If you stick to getting some staple items like a good pair of jeans and a blazer that fits well, you can build on that. Blazers can be paired with black pants for a dressy look or jeans for a relaxed but put together look. Shirts under the blazer can really change up your look too.

You can also build on basics like a good pair of ballet flats, a pair of heels you feel comfortable wearing, and a well-made handbag. The idea here is to make sure you have items that aren’t so trendy you won’t be able to wear them next season. A few trendy items and some classic staples made to last will make your outfit choices feel limitless.

5. Use Accessories To Test Bright Color Trends

If you want to try out the newer neon colors that are trending right now accessories are a good way to do it without making a huge commitment. If you don’t like the trend you don’t have to deal with a closet of clothes that just aren’t your thing. Add in pops of color with shoes or a necklace and test the waters before you jump all the way in.

6. Find Someone To Tailor Your Clothes

Don’t rely on off the rack sizes to fit you perfectly They’re made for a general body type that almost no one falls into. Find a good seamstress or tailor and have your clothes adjusted to fit you perfectly.

Keep in mind they won’t be able to change huge things like making something 2 sizes bigger, but they can adjust hems and other things to custom fit your new clothes.

7. Use Scarves To Dress Things Up

Scarves are very useful for dressing up your regular clothing. You can use a scarf around your neck to dress up a plain t-shirt. You can tie one around your wrist for a cute bracelet substitute. You can even tie one to the handle of a handbag for a whole new look. These accessories are super versatile so don’t underestimate their usefulness.

8. Don’t Overcommit To Clothes

Some clothing items are just too high maintenance to be worth the hassle. If you are on the fence about whether or not you want to take that new sweat you’re looking at home with you, consider what it requires to care for it.

Is it dry clean only? Maybe it’s time to pass on that for something more easily cared for. Don’t overcommit to something you don’t absolutely love.

9. Find A Great Fit For Jeans

Jeans are tricky and if you aren’t careful you can end up with a drawer full of jeans you don’t really like. Take the time to try jeans on in the store and make sure you really love them before taking them home. Yes, it takes a little more time in the store to really test jeans out but it will be worth it. You’ll end up with one pair of jeans you love instead three you kind of hate.

10. Shop With A List

This is probably a different kind of list than what you’re thinking right now. Instead of deciding on a list of things to buy, make a list of what you have and love. This will help you focus at the store.

You’ll be able to find things that complement what you already have which means you’re building your closet up. You’ll have more outfits you love this way and shopping will be a breeze.
