Fashion is way to express yourself with your fashion sense using clothes and accessories that help you present the style of your choice. Knowing fashion basics will guide you into the right fashion style for you and fashion is all about taking risks so don’t hide your ideas show them becoming a true fashionista.

~*Get Rid Of Old Clothing*~

Before buying clothes for your new fashion style you should get rid of worn out, ill-fitting, age inappropriate, outdated clothing from your closet and if you haven’t worn something in a year that should be taken out of your closet as well. Your clothes are meant to be comfortable and once they fit perfectly to your body you won’t need your favorite big sweatshirt you wear all the time, because you can toss that out to lol.

Wear clothes that fit and not to tight, because Your clothes are meant to be comfortable and once they fit perfectly to your body you won’t need your favorite big sweatshirt you wear all the time, because you can toss that out to lol.

~*Choose Your Style*~
Pick the style you want to express before shopping for your new look including colors, prints and fabrics that have always caught your attention. Think of how your new style choice could express the feeling of your lifestyle and compliment your body in the best way using the style you picked to make the right choices for your fashion needs.

To keep your look modern you should focus more on one item keeping everything else nice and neutral. Remember a little goes a long way when it comes to fashion trends to be careful not to over style your looks.

A romantic look can be done just don’t do flowy from head to toe, instead wear a pleated skirt and fitted top with a jacket since flowy from head to toe isn’t very flattering unless you will be attending a princess ball.

If you are going for the preppy look pairing an argyle sweater with khaki pants are outdated this season, but pairing that argyle sweater with fitted jeans and high heels. Make them look flattering, because fashion is your statement showing people how much fashion you really have as a sophisticated woman.

~*Must Haves*~

Start with the basics that you can mix and match like :
      ·         Structured jackets

·         Medium-rise dark wash straight legged (skinny) jeans

      ·         V neck sweaters to make you look taller

·         A line skirts

·         Blazers

·         Skinny jeans

·         Cardigans

·         Flower dress

·         Leopard print

·         Pencil skirts

Every woman should own at least one suit even if it’s never worn together, because it can be worn in pieces to compliment a different look. Wear the jacket with some skinny jeans or fitted jeans for dinner and the skirt or pants with a v neck sweater or cami and a classic suit will never go out of style.

When buying jeans spending a lot of money on them isn’t always a bad thing, because if they fit the way you want them to it’s worth spending a lot of money on them and they will last you a lot longer. The more expensive pieces of clothing you own can be mixed with faded clothing and avoid buying clothes that scream fashion trend, because you most likely can make that one outfit in a lot of different ways with different pieces from different looks or styles. Stretchy pants are a good choice if jeans typically squeeze you in places you wish they didn’t lol and they go good with just about any style choice.
~*Runway Ready Everyday*~
When you get your wardrobe together then you can begin to stylize your look. The new trends are bold prints and colors, but the print should compliment the size of the woman. To make sure your look ensures your fashion trend avoid large earrings, bangles and oversized bags when wearing bold prints so that your accessories don’t out due your wardrobe.
When taking inspiration from runway looks remember the stylist isn’t telling you to wear it exactly like the runway look, but use it as a guideline to what you will turn it into for a daily fashion look.

If you wake up feeling like wearing heels, but unsure what look you are going for just make skinny jeans part of the wardrobe and take it from there. Heels can make any wardrobe look beautiful even if you’re going for a more casual look and not the dressy look, but throw on some wedges, skinny jeans and fitted top you will have a sophisticated casual dressy look.

Wearing heels everyday may seem like a lot of work but you can turn any day into runway day lol. Everyday heel wearing is difficult, but you should wear heels whenever you have the feeling to and never back down or let people tell you any different.

~*Dress For Your Size*~

The best way to hide belly fat is to wear a sweater, because it can make you look like you have that hourglass shape even if you don’t since structured clothing can make you look and feel slimmer. All women fixate on their body flaws when shopping for clothes, because they want to hide their flaws, but you should always buy clothing that fit your body type right now, but stop putting looking and feeling good to the side until you lose weight, because it can be done now and jumpstart the process. You can effect change from the outside in.

Fashion is all about trends and expressing yourself with style and sophistication so don’t let any fashion idea go undone, because it can turn an ordinary look into something new. Take inspiration from styles and looks you see every day applying them to your own look, but in a way that represents who you are and what style you were going for. Beauty may be skin deep good fashion sense is a factor in looking and feeling beautiful, but having good fashion makes you feel good about yourself in different ways and can also help you to make other changes in your life.
I believe that everybody has different fashion sense and none of them are better than each other, because good fashion depends on your fashion preferences and style decisions. Some women have different opinions when it comes to what their style says about them, but once you stop caring about that, you will have a much better chance of looking and feeling good when you change your style into something you’ve always wanted to try out. Don’t give up on styles, because people talk down on it just change it up a little making it stand out more than the first time you wore it since you wore it differently each time.
  ~*Shoes and Heels*~

When choosing what kind of shoes you are going to buy you have to first think about the style and fashion statement you are trying to express with wearing them. Matching your shoes with your wardrobe should be a simple task, because bright or bold colors go well with bold prints and wedges are cute with anything depending on your fashion preferences. All women have a love for shoes and can’t seem to stop buying heels lol, but when buying heels you should know what the latest trends are and apply that to your decision making. Wedges are one of my personal favorite type of heels, because they are easy to walk in, but is good with a pair of jeans and a cute top.

Shoe trends for this fall are styles that every woman who has a shoe addiction will fall in love with, here are the fall 2012 trends in style:

Chunky High Heels: I’m not a fan of these heels, but these are a good look for those of you fashion lovers who are into this heel style, these are available in a wide variety of heights, colors and styles. Lower heels are for a more vintage look were as the higher heels are for a retro glam vibe.

Classic Pumps: Pumps are a must have and I’m not talking about the type of pump elongated into a point, but the classic style pointed or almond shaped. These are good with suits and a very dressy style that can be worn on any occasion. I love pumps depending on the style and look of the heel, but I don’t like the pointed toe look as much as most women do.

Platform Heels: My favorite !. The platform heel is a good addition to your shoe collection, because these make you look sexy also making your legs seem longer. These come in all types of styles, colors, prints and heights, because these heels are meant to make a virtual woman look like she is in tune with her fashion sense even on days she feels a little off balance.

Boots Or Booties: I love both of these styles a lot more this year then I ever have, because this trend can be used with any type of dressing style or look. Decide from knee high boots to ankle low booties in a wide range of styles, colors and prints pairing them with skinny jeans or leggings for the best stylish look.

Wedges: These are another one of my favorite types of heels since they are the easiest to walk in. These can be paired with jeans or a dress depending on the look you are going for with the outfit of your choice. Wedges are in trend this fall, because they go with just about any style and can turn a casual look into something a little more dressy.
Stylish Dress Loafers: Some of these shoes are pretty cute and I can see myself wearing this style. Dressy, unadorned, and streamlined loafers are hot this season and women flats were inspired by men’s smoking slippers. If you are looking to get the best look with this shoe style look for styles in lush materials like suede and velvet looking for rich colors like black or deep purple or get really bold with styles featuring prints.
Cap Toe Flats: This same style is used on pumps, loafers and ballerina flats as well. This is another way to add a little something extra to your shoe collection, because like loafers these flats come in a variety of colors, styles and prints.

Boot Trends: This fall it’s not about the heels it’s the shafts, because short boots are hot this season. Booties are a must this fall, but especially ankle boots, because they can go with a casual or dressy style. The most noticed style of boots for women fit into three categories including motorcycle inspired, western and chelsea boots.

Color Trends For Shoes: Besides the typical earth palette colors that pop up in trends, but this fall’s go to color is red, but if you want something less predictable you should choose hues like royal blue, deep purple and dark turquoise.   

Animal Prints and Glitter: I love this trend, because prints are very cute and easy to mix with any styles. Or avoid the color wheel all together and check out trendy animal prints on shoes and boots. Leopard print are the hottest of the top shoe print styles in style this fashion season along with reptile prints, gold shoes and anything with a hint of glitter.

~*Pairing Leopard Print Shoes And The Right Outfit*~

Leopard print shoes are good to add a little personality to your any outfit, but they don’t go with everything, In fact there are more colors that I can name that don’t go well with leopard then there are names that do. Pairing leopard with two solid colors can be done and you should use accent colors or bright colors. Don’t pair with a different type of print to me that would look very weird.
Black: Since leopard print has black in it this is a factor in why this color goes with it, but for the most part black brings out the light colors in the leopard print. Black goes with everything so keep it in your wardrobe and you won’t be disappointed.
White And Light Neutrals: Sand, blush and cream are some good colors to mix with leopard print. These colors wont over power the color tones used in leopard print, but if you’re a real sucker for detail match them with like colors.
Red and Other Bright Colors: Leopard goes well with bright colors if you’re looking to turn heads, But if you’re not just make the color you choice become the accent color instead. Colors you can use to best compliment the leopard print are orange, pink, yellow and chartreuse some are better used as accent colors.
Earth Tones and Mid-tone Neutrals: Even though some women think khaki, olive greens, browns and rust shades are to drab they are a great choice when you want more color then an neutral offers, they are far more subtle then bright colors and are good for pairing with neutral-hued prints. To turn your look cohesive match the tone of your outfit to your shoes for example of your leopard shoes are black and white try cooler mid-tones like olive and gray. On the other hand if your shoes feature a more cream base then use warmer tones like rust and browns.
Denim (Casual best friend): Weather it’s flats, pumps or booties you’re talking about wearing with leopard print the easiest way to wear this print is with denim. For a more classic, casual and care free look wear a white top, jeans and leopard shoes together.

 ~*Picking Sneakers*~

Shopping for sneakers is a little easier task then shopping for a cute pair of heels, because there are far more styles and looks to choose from and it’s for a comfortable/casual look, I love a cute pair of sneakers that I can rock with any outfit when I feel like being giving my runway ready style a break. Sneakers like heels can make or break an outfit, because they should always match what your wearing that’s a MUST in my book.
