Nowadays there is the trend for being an individual and wearing what you like without worrying what people think. This is a good thing as it means that there is a large range of clothes and availability for you to be totally yourself without the stigma or worry of being different.
#1 Choosing your look
It takes courage to be able to show off your creativity with the clothes that you wear and overall look. In this, you should not feel suppressed or intimidated in any way. Everyone is an individual and it is important that this should be shown in the presentation of yourself to the world.
When it comes to choosing the perfect look that totally reflects you as a person, you can look to magazines or catalogs online and offline to gain inspiration with different garments, colors, and styles.
#2 Sourcing your items
When it comes to sourcing your items, changing fashions mean you could if you wanted to trawl the thrift stores for garments to change or go one step further and purchase material and make your own from scratch. There are countless patterns available to either purchase online or download and you can really get your look right by making bespoke items with the fabric that you desire the most.
However, when it comes to footwear you will have to think long and hard about comfort and style, you will find that it is not often that the two go hand in hand. There is, of course, the option of choosing footwear that is practical and comfortable which you will get the most wear from and therefore value for money. This will give your new look a hint of something else entirely, character. For instance, choosing Oxford shoes have character as well as comfort and practicality which will not only complement your personality but could provide the finishing touch to any outfit and look that you are trying to achieve.
#3 Putting your new look together
Stepping out for the first time in your new look could be a nail-biting venture, however, there is no reason why you should have to show your look all in one go if you are nervous about how it will be received by friends and family as well as those that are purely onlookers.
Take your time in introducing your new look to others by wearing different items of your new look and mixing them with your old, until over a period of time you are completely wearing your new look having slowly morphed from the old you into the new. If, however, you are totally unafraid, and welcome comments from others, then stepping out with your new look, hair, make-up, clothes, and shoes is something that you will truly relish.
To wrap it all up
With today’s style being one of independence and uniqueness, there is no reason to hide your own style and creativity. Indeed, you should be able to wear exactly what you want to wear. Whether you are choosing to purchase items second-hand, new, or even make your own, you can put together styles and colors as you feel that they should be worn. When thinking about your new look be sure to include your hair, color, and style as well as the make-up that you choose to wear or any body art in the form of tattoos or piercings that you want to show off.
