How to Wear Trendy Clothes

How to Wear Trendy Clothes



What you wear says a lot about who you are and what matters to you. If you want to send a message to the rest of the world that fashion is important to you, you should know how to wear trendy clothes and make them work for your own personal style.







Things You'll Need:





Fashion magazines



Computer with Internet Access



Mini skirt



Boots



Flats



Full tops



Cropped jackets



Dresses









Step
1



Take stock of the trendy pieces you own and love.




Step
2



Understand that these should serve as the centerpiece of your outfit.




Step
3



Select other, more conservative items that will help set them off. For instance, pair a very trendy print mini skirt with a longer classic cardigan, dark tights and pointy toe flats to finish the look. Or wear red equestrian boots with dark skinny pants and a conservative blazer to achieve a nice balance.




Step
4



Realize that one or two trendy pieces can make an outfit stand out, but piling too many different trends will have the opposite effect, making you look silly instead of cutting edge.




Step
5



Call on your basics, such as T-shirts, jeans, turtlenecks and leggings to layer under some of your trendy dresses to give them a new look and make them work in the colder months.




Step
6



Assess the different shapes of your trendy clothes, such as your high-waist pants, flowy tops and fuller cropped jackets and try putting together different combinations to see what stands out and best flatters your figure.







Tips & Warnings









Browse through current fashion magazines and Instyle.com's "look of the day" to find looks you like and try to copy them yourself.








Spice up a more conservative outfit with a trendy pair of shoes or very unusual necklace.








Try to create your own trends by putting unusual colors and textures together.








Realize that not all trends are meant to be worn off of the runway! If you're in doubt about whether you can carry off a trend, ask someone you trust for an honest opinion before you leave the house.
