10 Simple Ways To Improve Your Dressing Sense
Share
We all heard of style, but have you ever heard of dressing sense?
Dressing sense is the ability to choose clothes that make you look attractive and having a superb dressing sense means you know how to dress in the most attractive way possible.
What you wear dramatically affects how your colleagues and friends treat you. Wear a poorly designed, ill-fitting suit, and you can feel wierd looks wherever you go (probably silently, but it still hurts). On the other hand, wearing smart, stylish attire is sure to grab eyeballs and make people like you a bit more.
While fashion can be simple, there are some tips and tricks that you can follow to improve your personal dressing sense, or even develop a unique one if you haven’t been into clothes for a long time. And no, it’s not hard, it just sounds hard! Putting in a few extra minutes while getting ready or shopping for clothes is not huge, but it can significantly improve the way you dress.
10 Simple Ways To Improve Your Dressing Sense
1. Wear Outfits That Are Appropriate For The Occasion
Wearing outfits that are suitable for the event is absolutely essential if you want to be known for a great dressing sense.
For example, if you’re dressing for work, observe how those in your management roles dress. You don’t need to copy them, but noticing a few key elements in their style can add a lot to your own office attire.
When going out, also think about the setting and try to dress accordingly.
2. Do Not Shy Away From Colorful Clothes
Yes, wearing neutral colors can help you to mix and match without effort, but having a few colorful pieces adds a real twist to any wardrobe! If you want to improve your dressing sense, dare to experiment and find some colors that make your whole personality pop.
3. Care About Your Shoes
Shoes make a big part of your style too. Carefully selected shoes can dress up a casual outfit to appear more dressy, or make a fancy outfit more casual – depends on what you need!
If you don’t want to horde too many pairs of shoes, invest in two high-quality pairs: one for fancier occasions and one for everyday wear. Then, you can easily mix and match them with various outfits to dress up or dress down whenever needed.
4. Buy Good Quality
To develop a good dressing sense, practice scouting for high-quality stuff (which is not necessarily expensive if you know where to look for).
Buying good quality can have an immense impact on your whole look. Not only do such items last longer – better materials tend to have that “quality” feel to them, which instantly adds more weight to the whole look.
5. Make Sure You Have The Right Fit
I used to think that skipping trying clothes on is great (“I will return it later”… never returns it, cries, then donates), yet it can significantly impact your dressing sense and how your fashion appears in the public eye.
If the clothes do not fit right, they can look sloppy and show that you don’t care about yourself – and I’m not sure anyone would like to be seen as that. Make sure to try things on before you decide to buy the item. Try to find a fit that is not too tight and not too large or something that emphasizes your features instead of overwhelming them.
6. Start With The Basics
If you’re just starting to develop your unique dressing sense, it might feel a little hard at first. This is fine! You can simply start with the basics.
Having a few essential pieces that you can incorporate into any outfit is an integral part of your wardrobe. These items can include button-down cotton shirts in a variety of neutral colors (like navy, beige, gray, and white). More basics include cardigans and pullover sweaters that can be paired with any outfit.
Plaid and gentles patterns are also safe, “basic” pieces that you can experiment with until you feel ready to try something bolder.
7. Accessorize!
Accessorizing your outfit has an enormous impact on your appearance – and scouting for the items you like is one of the best ways to improve your dressing sense.
Simple things, like stylish watches and classy belts, will make your outfit look more put together and you can get lost in accessory stores for hours (it’s a nice way to clear your head!)
