Some of those recent events I mentioned earlier, was the earthquake and the aftershocks that followed it AND I recently got confined in the hospital. Up until now, while I was on the 3rd floor of the hospi, I could still feel my bed moving and could see the bottled waters on my desk ripple. Now, that's scary to the point that I have heard of news that when the 7.2M earthquake struck Cebu and Bohol, nurses and doctors had to evacuate the patients outside the building. And I couldn't stop imagining the worst case scenario that it would happen to me too. :_: Let's pray everyone.
Anyway, enough of the aftershocks and the earthquake and the hospitals and stuff like that, let's get to our main agenda. Any guesses what would our agenda be for today? Hah! As you guys would know, I always give away the topic in the title but not this time. Ohooh, not this time. Any guesses? No? *smirks*
If you're going to pair a silver gladiator footwear between a yellow peplum dress and a midriff blouse and ombre shorts, I'd choose the former. If you're going to pick between a purple tie and a black tie to be paired with a red formal long sleeves to wear to a formal party perhaps, the latter is the best choice for you to have. It's a matter of matching and choosing between colors and styles and just let your creativity run wild. But be careful, do not overdo it. You might turn from fashionista...
...into a living fashion disaster.
Here are some tips of mine to remember about FASHION:
1.) Trend? What trend?
Fashion does not only talk about wearing all the clothes that are considered as the main trends as of the moment, but also considers your taste and your physique. Remember, your physique ( height, body build, etc.) are important too in this case. Do not go wearing that certain dress because it's the trend nowadays, nor would you boast off your muscular shoulders or legs by wearing something that you think suits you. It's uncalled for. You have to take in your physique as the main consideration.
2.) Creativity is Personality
Fashion is letting out your personality be shown to the public. Fashion is art. If you want to go comfortably simple but yet catchy, you could try denims, jeans, with a comfy loose shirt and wear caps or accessories to just go for the show. If you want to look girly, wear something that would contemplate one another. Perhaps wearing a light neon blouse to be tucked in a high waist skirt with matching heels, and your hair in a bun, and also, let's not forget the accessories that would enhance your outfit. These are essential. I don't have the right to give you fashion tips or whatsoever. I, for one, am not a fashionista. But I know fashion and what's not.
3.) You don't need BRANDS to look GRAND
Chanel? YSL? Dior? Lacoste? Gucci? There is no rule stating that you have to buy expensive brands of clothing just to look decent, high and classy. We can start with something that is simple and affordable. Simplicity is elegance, mind you. All you have to do is just be creative of what you have and tadaaaa, you can think of tons of ideas on how to make one simple getup into an astounding, "hey-where-did-you-get-that-from?" outfit. It's a matter of creativity.
4.) Be Unique, Be You
Being unique is one of the beautiful traits of being human. It is who we are. There is no one like us in the world. People might have some similarities, but that's it, ONLY similarities. We are still different. What I'm meaning to say in this tip is that, when there is a fashion line that's popular nowadays, there is a BIG possibility that you and a co-worker or a friend, are wearing the same thing. Well, that is awkward. Definitely awkward. Remember, from what I mentioned earlier in number 1; you don't need to wear all the clothes that are trending. Consider your physique first. And before you even decide to wear that outfit, think about this: do you want to go walking down the streets wearing that same thing that someone else ( either you know that person or not) is wearing? Well, DO think again.
And lastly,
5.) Don't.
Don't overdress. Don't over-accessorize. Don't put too much perfume. Don't. Just don't. Dress for that event. Dress for that occasion. Creativity is one thing, but being too creative is also another thing. You are showing the public YOU. Do not go off showing your bare body ( short shorts, cleavage-showing-blouses, etc.). The public is not asking for that. There are just some limitations as to what we know about fashion. And those aren't part of them.
So that's about it. These are the five tips about fashion I can think of as of this moment. Remember, I'm no fashionista. I just know fashion when I see one.
