6 Style tips from Personal Stylists

Get ready to note helpful tips to elevate your style game.

We’ve asked around and gathered 6 style tips from Personal Stylists that are tried and true. Let’s dive right into them!

1. Create a signature look

This is a super easy wardrobe hack that can save you lots of money! Creating a signature look simply means having a collection of pieces and accessories that help create your personal style and sticking to the look. Now, we’re not talking about wearing the same thing everyday.

2. Dress for you

Styling is an entirely personal journey. It’s totally about what works for you. You should not be pressured by the fact that everyone is dressing some type of way. Go for outfits that suit your body type and resonate with your personal style.

If you’re still confused about what works for you, you can find inspirations on Pinterest and from quality fashion blogs, with styles of women with your body type. You’d surely find something that resonates with you.

3. Prioritise quality over quantity

Investing in your style is not just about having lots of items in your wardrobe. Once you’ve identified your style, streamline your shopping lists to high quality and classic pieces you love and that would elevate your look. Focus on spending the majority of your budget on high quality items that you’d be comfortable wearing every time.

Having fewer high quality items that you love would give you more outfit options. It pays to spend a bit more on high quality pieces to help create your signature style.

4. Organise your Closet

Instead of just staking your clothes in your wardrobe, opt for organising your wardrobe in a way that makes it easy for you to see all you have and shop your closet effortlessly. This would ensure that everything in your closet is visible and useful.

A great way to start is by arranging your outfits by item types. Then go on to separate casual from dressy outfits. That way, you can see the entire closet easily, and spot the gaps that need filling.

5. Don’t go overboard with trends

One thing about trends is that they are temporary. The last thing you would want to do is splurge on styles that would fade away very quickly.

If you have a shopping budget, spend 80% on your basics and 20% on trends. Also, don’t be pressured into buying trendy outfits. Stay true to your personal style by only buying pieces that suit your signature look.

6. Declutter your wardrobe

If you have never thought about decluttering your wardrobe, now is the best time to do it. You would essentially be getting rid of items you don’t need.

Building a personal style is all about you, what you love and what you’re comfortable with. The tips listed would help ensure your style is unique, organised and personal.

Feeling good in your outfits is such a great feeling. However, that feeling is not attainable every day or for those who lack style inspiration.

No matter if you have tried losing weight or changing out your wardrobe, sometimes your style choices just might not be satisfying you or making you feel your best. Therefore, here are some style tips to ensure that you can always feel your best in your clothes.

Choose comfortable materials

There is no worse feeling than looking good in your outfit yet it just isn’t comfortable. Therefore, it is a good idea to choose materials that are comfortable. These will make you feel your best, no matter how stylish, formal, or relaxed your outfit choice is.

For example, choosing a cashmere piece is ideal if you want to look stylish yet stay comfortable and warm.

Dress for your body type

You might not be feeling great in your outfits because you are not dressing for your body type. Dressing according to your shape and size will make you feel and look your best.

Some tips include:

Wear loose-fitting pants with bigger legs. Being blessed with big thighs is an amazing thing yet it can make trousers hard to find, especially flattering ones. Therefore, think about wearing looser fitter pants.
Shorter tops. Should you have a longer top half or a small waist and larger hips, shorter tops are much more flattering. It doesn’t have to be a crop top but choosing a short blouse over a longline one will flatter your shape more.

Don’t forget to accessorise

You might lack excitement for your outfits due to a lack of accessories. Therefore, always remember to accessorise. Simply adding a necklace or killer pair of earrings can make you feel amazing.

Accessories can say a lot about someone and more often than not, are worn to suit an occasion. Therefore, you can have an array of various accessories to switch up depending on the occasion you are attending. That way, you can make your outfits feel more special and suitable depending on where you are going.

Have fun with colour

If you have fallen out of love with your clothes, look in your wardrobe and see if they lack colour. Some people simply enjoy wearing colour and some don’t. You might be someone that needs more colour in their life. Therefore, have fun with colour to make yourself always feel good in your clothes.

Some people suit certain colours. Therefore, finding a colour that complements you well will make you love what you see in the mirror.

Dress for the weather

You can easily feel uncomfortable in your outfits if you are too cold or too hot. Overheating in a large coat is not fun, nor is freezing with the wrong pair of shoes on. Therefore, always make sure to dress for the weather.

Always check the weather before you get dressed so that you know you will feel comfortable yet stylish all day long.

Style tips for when you are on the job

When it comes to an office environment, it is very important to get your outfit right. I remember how I dressed back in the day when I had an office based job. It is important to look smart and professional on all days, even on dress down days. You need to get the balance right – looking smart and comfortable while doing your job.

Here are some style tips you may find useful when you are on the job –

Add a touch of your company

At my last office based job, we had printed work shirts and silicone wristbands we wore to work regularly. They helped raise brand awareness and they looked really stylish. Clothing and accessories with your company information is a great way to support the business and it also creates a form of togetherness.

You can implement a touch of your company into your work attire. The easiest way to do this successfully is to add accessories with the company information in your outfit. For example, Lancaster Printing’s silicone wristbands are customisable and are a great way to get this right.

Dress to impress

When it comes an office setting, it is very important for you to dress to impress. Dress down days are no exceptions. My last office job was in a call centre in Manchester, and we had a very relaxed way of dressing. I always ensured I looked smart every day. I didn’t go into work in heels everyday but I made sure my clothes and accessories were clean, smart and well put together. It amazes how I see many people dressing to work. Some come in wearing very tight miniskirts and cropped tops, which I think is just trashy. I have also seen many workers wearing ripped jeans or sky-high heels and being unable to walk in them.

Dressing to impress is a very important style tip for every office setting. We should all ensure we dress the way we want to be addressed.

Let your personality shine through

When it comes to fashion and style, I always advise anyone to stick to trends they like but you also need to remember you are in an office setting. So the trends you do like must be appropriate for the office. The fact that you are digging the ripped denim trend does that mean it is acceptable to wear them to the office.

When you wear pieces you are drawn to and style them in your own way, your personality would shine right through and it makes you stand out even more.

Invest in your pieces

You should spend a little bit more to ensure your office pieces stand the test of time. A classic skirt or trouser suit is worth investing a bit of money in. You would be spending more money on a great quality suit than you would spend on a great pair of jeans, so get your wallet ready. The better the fabric and lining of your piece, the more expensive it would be.
