Common fashion mistakes

OFTEN, we consider some people as fashion plates that can’t make mistakes. But this isn’t true; nobody is perfect, especially when it comes to what to wear. Below are common fashion mistakes women can make every day.

Being too much revealing: There is nothing wrong with sexy looks, but you must definitely make them with taste and a lot of exposed skin may be inappropriate, especially in more modest settings.

Hiding behind oversized things: Wearing clothes that are too large, baggy, and oversized for your figure is a huge mistake. Many women think they can hide their flaws under loose-fitting clothing, but that will only make you look bigger.

Too few or too many accessories: While a lot of accessories in one outfit is a mistake, lack of accessories can be even scarier than their abundance

Sticking to same style: While fashion styles may repeat over time, it is important to replace clothes that look worn or outdated. To always look pretty and fresh, sticking to the same style is a good idea, but you still need to periodically update your wardrobe.

Using the same bag always: Some people believe a bag is just an item where you can put different items and merely a load carrier but it is important to consider how the bag will go with your clothes; there should be different bags for different situations in your wardrobe. To come to the theatre, to a concert with a work bag or shopper is not a good idea, the same goes for working outfits with a clutch. However, the greatest mistake would be to go with plastic bags.

Wearing fakes: At a period where everything is counterfeited, especially bags, shoes and sunglasses. If you can’t afford them, don’t buy and support fakes. Use simple brands because those who are quite good at brands will immediately identify a fake and this affects your image.

Shopping for Instagram: This is the height of fallacy of new century fashion and many people now shop exclusively for Instagram, if you find yourself buying something just to post it on social media and not because you have space in your closet, you have committed a fashion blunder and such action is unnecessary.
