My Personal Style
March 27, 2017
Over the
last couple of years I have been trying to define my personal style and how I
would like that to mould the way the world sees me. It has been a journey of
many misses and of hits too to be quite honest. Now I think I am at a point
where I can say I have found my personal style. One’s style is not necessarily
what looks good on everyone or what is currently in fashion/trending; but what
works for the individual. Fashion and style is not the same thing but they are
in the same family and they complement each other. Through fashion you can find
your own style. Style is when you take a piece of clothing (fashion) and you
make it your own. How you wear it and it brings out your best features, now
that is style.
I
personally feel comfortable in dresses and skirts, they are what I believe look
great on my body type. I am a modest person in general and my style reflects
that. My personality is a combination of my character and how I present myself
on the outside. I gravitate towards items
that are easy breezy, timeless and can be paired with almost anything in my
wardrobe. If I cannot think of 3 ways I would wear the item, then I do not buy
it. Unless it is a bizarre and one of a kind piece that I cannot for the life
of me not have it, then I do not bother myself with buying it. I am of the view
that one has to wear the items in their wardrobe multiple times without looking
like you are repeating the clothing pieces. The clothing piece must look
totally different everytime you wear it.
So how did
I finally get it right in finding my style? Those that know me know that I like
writing and putting together collages. So I used some of my solitude time to
define the Sindy I want to see and do pictorials of what I want her to look
like. I also found my style icons and looked at how they put together their
outfits. From there I separated basic pieces to classic to trendy pieces that I
would need to complete my wardrobe. In doing this, it allowed me to narrow down
if not recognise the things I do not like or would not want to see in my
wardrobe. The last thing was me finding the colour patterns that I like and
completed my look with that. Nothing we do is new or miraculous, it has been
done before. So why not make use of trusted formulas to your advantage. Try it
and you will thank me later.
Thanks for stopping as always. Also find me on social media for more of Sindy
