On my channel, articles about fashion and style often flash. These concepts are different, but intertwined; fashionable things in themselves are not a guarantee of a stylish image, but in order to dress stylishly and in the spirit of the times, you need to understand what is relevant. Do not confuse hot trends and actual things, they are not the same thing.
I often get comments that it takes a lot of money to be stylish. Is it so? Thank God no. You can buy the most expensive and fashionable things, but at the same time your wardrobe will be a complete vinaigrette and you will still have nothing to wear. And even TSUM is full of tasteless but expensive rags.
At the same time, you can dress simply, without pretending to be expensive brands, but look brand new! With a modest budget, dressing stylishly is more difficult, but quite realistic.
Color all over the head
Avoid bright prints, complex colors, cheap plasticine, obscure rabid daisies, kittens, or psychedelic patterns. Let's take here the strass madness (rhinestones in clothes are usually cheaper), neon 90s.
Noble monochromatic colors are tasteful and expensive (although I don't really like this classification). If you like bright colors, learn a beautiful combination, there is an Itten circle that will help you find interesting color combinations without labor.
Avoid sticks
Everyone around is shouting that wearing fakes is bad. Another question, in order to know whether it is a branded thing or not, you need to know the range of these same brands. People working in the field of fashion or hobbies can identify a brand under a famous (or not so) brand at a glance. But people far from this world hardly know which bag Yves Saint Laurent had at the fashion show. 2018, and then was licked one to one by the ubiquitous Chinese in a basement without windows and an hour break for dinner.
And I can say, of course, that it is one thing when the Chinese were simply inspired, but made their own, albeit similar, and another - purposefully stole the idea. And the first has the right to be, and the second is not very good. But this is unlikely to be useful to you in practice, because here you need to know the industry.
I will say this - avoid at least China with a label of world brands (often with an extra or missing letter): Mihail Kors instead of Michael Kors, large plaques Chanel in the color of gypsy gold, bags from the Fendi warehouse with a 90% discount due to the closure of the fashion boutique in San Marino, which miraculously turned out to be at the generous the seller.
It is better to choose a laconic no name basic bag, you can pay attention to Russian brands.
This applies not only to bags, of course, but also things, and shoes, and accessories.
Don't buy hot trends
They come into fashion at the speed of light, and they also quickly fly out of it, falling into the anti-trend list. Therefore, with a small budget, it makes no sense to buy ultra-fashionable sneakers, which will be replaced by others in a year.
I will not say that the basic things do not change, their cut and details change over time. But this is not happening so quickly and rapidly. A white shirt is a staple, but a 2010 shirt might look old-fashioned in 2020.
When buying a new item, do not lose your head. It must definitely match several that you already have, so that you can make more than one set.
I am sure that among my readers there are women who know how to dress stylishly without having a lot of money. Share your secrets in the comments! Thanks for your attention and your classes, this is priceless!
