how to find your style

i think its a bit easier than you think to find your style. when i was finding mine, i thought it was hard and i made alot of mistakes that costed me alot of money but years of feeling uncomfortable in my outfits. so lets start.

do not follow the trends

there is so many trends now a days and it comes and goes in a few days or weeks. when you dont know your style, its easy to mix up your style and what fashion trend thats in. i think pinterest is good to look for things but to a certain extent. there’s a difference between trends/ fashion you like and what you like on you but it’s easy to mix that up when you’re just figuring it out.

know what you are comfortable in and what flatters you

for example, i feel kind of uncomfortable in v necks, turtle necks and low rise jeans, certain cuts and silhouettes doesnt flatter my figure, i know certain colors make me look paler and some wash me out. it takes a bit of research to know this and sometimes you just know. i never liked v neck even when i was a child but i forced myself to wear it as a teen because people said it flattered my chest and every girl wore it. i cant lie it was cute but it made me insecure and i did research on other alternatives. square neck cuts still flatters my chest but i feel comfortable in it. understand your figure and research what type of silhouettes compliment it. pay attention to certain colors that wash you out and wears you instead of you wearing it.

figure out who you tend to look at for fashion inspiration

for me, my mother is my fashion icon. she was in her 20s when she had me and i saw her dress in 2000s fashion and early 2010s fashion. i wanted to dress just like her and i love that kind of fashion. 2000s fashion have a few subcategories but its the 2000s latina fashion so big hoops, lip gloss, cheetah, tight jeans, low cut tops, you get the look. look for someone you look up to for fashion, it doesnt have to be family obvi or anyone actually, you can look for a specific style or many styles.

i made two pinterest boards, one i got inspo from and i had a few folders.

everyday inspo

at home inspo

dressy inspo

another board that were my closet basics and i also had folders for

winter and summer tops

winter and summer bottoms

outerwear

shoes

accessories

this helped me when buying my clothes and if i get stuck on what i wanted to wear.

dont box yourself

i have so many styles i love and wear and thats fine. i dont label myself in just one category. i will dress in y2k fashion and the next like a grandma. its okay to have different style sense and its so much fun to play with styles.

start with the basics

i think this is a broad statement to start with basics because maybe my style basics is jeans and tees, while yours is skirts and tube tops. this is why you have to learn what you like and find what basics would go with that. basics are items that can be versatile in many outfits. for example, i started with basic color tops, jeans, basic dresses. these were items that i could make an outfit and be comfortable in and then i invested in more 'staple' pieces to make it my style.

dont worry about others

some styles are a bit more out there than others and if you like a style you know draws attention, dont be afraid to wear. if it makes you comfortable, confident and happy with yourself then dont pay attention to the chitter chatter. its easy to say than do and its a work in progress but live for you not the acceptance of others.

this series helped me especially when i wasnt too sure what my figure was. her channel is great as well.
