7 Easy Steps to Look Stylish

Stylish does not have to be a dress up – it can be who you are.

Everyone wants to be stylish, and people are always trying to look stylish when they go out but what book says that being stylish has to be a one time thing? You can imbed “stylish” into you lifestyle, and always manage to look stylish effortlessly. Here’s how:

  1. Update your wardrobe. By update, we don’t mean throw everything out and splurge on getting new clothes – no. Just try to wear clothes that fit you well and stick to timeless fashions, rather than trying too hard to go with the latest fashions.
  2. Get a few timeless items that look rich. Spending a little extra is not a bad idea if you do it well. For example, if you buy a simple yet brand name black sweater, it could go with many outfits, making them all look expensive.
  3. Never overdo any outfit. Nothing takes away the stylish factor like trying too hard. Remember the golden rule, simplicity is the best policy.
  4. Focus on your hair. For everyday styles, braids and loose waves look great, but even for formal occasions, don’t let too much effort show. Try a bun, they are classy and stylish.
  5. Makeup is essential not a lifesaver. Don’t use makeup like you need to – use it like you want to. Keep it neutral, simple, let your naturalness show through.
  6. Choose a look that you are comfortable with and stick to it. If people regularly see you in type of look, it will automatically make you seem stylish, like you always look good without trying.

Confidence = Style. There is nothing wrong with being confident about looking good, let it show. However, know the difference between confidence and arrogance. Being nice yet confident is the way to go. Also, make sure your confidence shows through by the way you walk – walk steady, straight, and easily.
