Do you know those women who always look stylish and where every look looks so natural? In the fashion industry and beyond, there are some women whose styling looks perfect day after day. Since I’m always asked for my tips for a cool look, I’ve written down my daily tips and hacks for you here, which help me to get dressed in the morning. I can tell you this much: there is no miracle behind it but above all good planning.
Timing is everything when it comes to styling
Not everyone has the talent to put together a wow look within ten minutes, which should also look effortlessly stylish. I always take a lot of time – especially before our trips – to put together individual outfits. I see it as a creative process, which I also enjoy a lot at the same time because something new is always emerging. I proceed by starting with a piece as a highlight and putting together a look around it. For a better overview and to visualize, I do this on my styling grid (or the bed or floor). I also snap a quick photo on my cell phone of particularly successful styling, so I always remember the looks.
Underwear-Shopping
At the beginning of the 1920s, a lot of value was placed on very beautiful but also uncomfortable lingerie. In the meantime, I’m at the age when it should be beautiful and functional. This means that I don’t wear lace panties, which could possibly show through. Especially with lace tops or light trousers, I pay attention to simple underwear that you don’t see. For me, that makes a big difference for a successful styling, in which you also feel comfortable on top. After all, it’s always the details that count.
Fashion Styling: Mix it up
If you read interviews or other fashion icons, the motto is always: Mix it up! Dressed from head to toe in a designer sure might look cool, but there’s more to fashion than that! For me, a stylish look means that you approach it with creativity. For this, I mix designer and high street brands, niche labels, and vintage together. Breaks in style are also my personal tip for looks that always have something special about them. Summer dresses in boots or oversized blazers with skirts: Everything that at first glance doesn’t belong together can look quite stylish when combined.
Know your fit
There are women who even look casual and stylish in a t-shirt and jeans. Why is that? I’ll tell you the trick! Not only do these fashionistas pay attention to good quality and materials, but they also know their figure and fit very well. A perfectly fitting pair of jeans (I know it can drive you crazy looking for them) and a quality cotton t-shirt that fits you perfectly will do wonders. When you are trying to shop plus size dresses always make sure that the part fits you perfectly and makes you stylish and comfortable.
Last but not least, one of the most important tips for successful styling – for one of those days when you have nothing to wear, put together an outfit for emergencies in a free minute. So a stylish look in which you feel 100% comfortable and which is always possible. This can be, for example, a striped shirt and suit trousers, or jeans, a top and an elegant blazer with loafers. For me, it’s definitely a look with pieces from ayen and with a blazer. Many women have a signature look based on basics that you can go back and check for wholesale clothing.
