How To Have A Great Sense Of Style

Fashion is the perfect way to express yourself and your personality through what you wear and how you dress. You'll want your clothes to say something about you while also being in style. Here's how to do it: 
Find your own 'personal style'. This is really important, because you can be very stylish, but feel bad because you hate the clothes that you're wearing 
Learn about style. Look through fashion magazines and see what clothes are in style now.Go window-shopping.This will give you a chance to see what items you like and dislike. 
Ditch the brand-name clothes. The most important rule of having style is not to be defined by labels.
Know when clothes fit you. Not all of us can have the size 0 body of a model, and that's okay.To have style, you need to know how to tell when clothes fit you, and what kind of clothes and styles you can use to flatter your body type. 
Know how to put outfits together. You can have a lot of nice single pieces of clothing, but style look like you're lacking style if you don't know how to put them together. Know what colours work well together and when to go for some sneakers. 
Accessorize! It's a thing that can make an okay outfit a great outfit, and really improve your sense of style. 
Mix and match new and old outfits. Go through your current clothes and decide if you like them and if they fit you.Now, go shopping for some new pieces.Remember, only buy clothes that actually suit you. 
Be Confident! Overall, you need to love yourself, your body, and who you are. Be confident and wear your clothes; don't let your clothes wear you!

Poncho And Boots...Just A Modern CowGirl...

Go west and lasso in an adorable look for girls! The cowgirl look is still going strong. Of course this is my modern proposal, so don't  think about beige, browns, brick and other warm tones, but try off white, green and black. Of course the quintessential must-have for this look is the boots. Only cowboy boots will do. Pair them up with a wide poncho, an oversized mini dress and a swarovsky luxury belt. Normally cowboy booties are paired up with a great pair of jeans, suede skirt or western inspired dress. BUT, unless you live on a ranch, don’t over-do this look by putting too many western-inspired pieces together. Inspired is the key word. Which are your proposals about this look?

Sequins And Lace...So Chic!

Yes, I must admit… I am obsessed with sequins and lace, especially if they are on trend :)!
Lace is a lovely style, feminine and sexy, but you can try stretching your fashion envelope by making it look edgy with for example a pair of leggings or a leather jacket. If you're wearing lace on the day-to-day, remember to layer for example a simple cardigan to make it work/school friendly.For an ultra-trendy look, mix casual basics with the lace. A lace mini dress can look pretty hot and fabulous paired with a tailored boyfriend blazer with roll-up sleeves and platform sandals.
This season, sequins are no longer restricted to nights and holidays; they can be worn during the day to add a dressed-up element to any outfit. Simply cut tees and tanks become festive when adorned with sequins. If you're not ready to sport a sequin dress, allow your accessories to do the work by pairing an outfit with a sequined clutch for a night out or a cute sequin knit hat on a chilly spring day.

Oxford Shoes 2011 Trend Fashion Allure

Oxford shoes are all the rage this season, and your feet should be thankful. You no longer have to manage walking and keeping your foot inside the narrow toe box of a pump, or you can simply forgot wearing heels altogether. But how exactly do you wear these boyish shoes ... well ... without looking like a boy? This my proposal: pair them with a girlish silk and lacy dress and a leather jacket! Of course oxford shoes present an impeccably tailored style of classic menswear but worn with skirts, cropped pants, shorts, or leggings, it is a look every woman can pull off.

Is It A Dress Or A Skirt?

Happy Monday beauties!!! Yesterday was such a beautiful day… so warm with a bright sun that seemed to be in the summer ...
So I decided to wear a strapless dress and I can assure you that in hottest hours was really good. In the evening I added a micro-colored blazer and a very lively little bag purchased in small vintage marketplace very nice. The particularity of this dress is that it can be worn also as a skirt, do you like it? Do you prefer it as a dress or as a long skirt?
