Below are some rules to guide you in the fashion world:

Your Hairdo Should Complement You

Your hairdo adds a finishing touch to your look, to ensure it suits you very well. Do not just go for the trending hairstyles, be sure it looks good on you. Which is why it is essential you are not too loud with your hairdo. Avoid looking like a clown with your hairstyle.

Go With Clothes That Suit Your Body Shape

Picking a dress bigger or smaller than you are will make you look unattractive. While picking a dress, don’t just look at the beauty of the dress, try it on and be sure it fits perfectly. When you wear what suits you, you come out looking stunning, unlike when your dress makes you look like you borrowed them.

Avoid Dressing Too Young or Too Old

It is good to look young and beautiful always but wearing a dress that is meant for the younger generation will only make you look like a child as well as wearing what is meant for the older generation too. Always balance your dressing, embrace your age and rock the style for your generation.

Avoid Heavy Make Up

With the rate at which ladies learn to make up today and the fast-rising number of professional and unprofessional makeup artist, we are likely to see series of clowning on the road. No matter how good you are eager to look, do not overdo the face-lift. Makeup should be at the slightest minimum to avoid looking like a mannequin.

Pay Attention to Your Colour Combination

Sometimes we just wear some apparels because they will look good together forgetting to check if the colors can go together. Before you mix color, ensure they look good together so you do not come out looking funny. If you are good with combining colors, you are 30% good in dressing. The color combination also includes your shoes, bags, and accessories, so you don’t go around rioting.

Tread Lightly with the Accessories

If you do not want to go about looking like a costume masquerade, then you must beat down your accessories. Be moderate with your use of jewelry and it should complement your outfit.

Dress in Line With The Outing

I have seen some people wear some very lousy cloth to a job interview and some other people wear suit to a wedding. That is wrong, whatever you are wearing should suit the occasion, so you do not look odd among another guest.

Your Footwear Matter

Some of us are shoe lovers, but we should not pick the wrong size just because we like the shoe. Wearing an over-sized or an undersized shoe will make you totally uncomfortable. It will hinder you from walking heads high with them on. It shouldn’t be tight as it might hurt your feet and it should not be too big because it will slip off while walking around.

Have The Basics in Your Wardrobe

There are fashion items that do not come and go, those things should not be lacking in our wardrobe. In as much as we love to stay updated, they are must-have for everyone that wants to stay evolved in the fashion world. These fashion basics include: Jean trousers/skirt/jacket/dress, white shirt, black shirt, Belt, amongst others.

Whatever Makes You Comfortable

Fashion is not all about what is trending but mostly what makes us comfortable. While dressing up ensure that you are comfortable in and with your outfit. Avoid adjusting your dress every minute in public by wearing what you comfortable in.

There you have you it! Stick to these guidelines and you sure would be the definition of poise and grace. Please feel free to leave a comment on fashion etiquette for ladies in the comment section.

1. Declutter Your Wardrobe:

A lot of moms are so hung up on pieces that are either too big or too small. You know that voice in your head that says “I am working on losing the baby weight so I can rock this gorgeous dress again”, ignore it. The possibility of becoming the size 6 you used to be might not be realistic. Just work on keeping the belly flat (body magic/waist clincher is available) while you enjoy the voluptuous curves that come with motherhood. Decluttering looks like a lot of work but it is really simple. It means you get to take out the old in order to make room for the new. Choose a day and carefully sort out your clothes. The not so fun part is the part of trying each item on and tossing it in the “give this out” box. You can have a friend help you out (at least she will be there to tell you how ugly the dress(es) look while helping you wipe your tears as you give these items up.

2. Know Your Body Type:

One thing that motherhood blesses some people with is an improved body shape. Whether it is temporary or permanent, only time can tell. You know that feeling you get when you try on a dress at the store and it does not sit right? ; That is your body shape telling you to choose something more flattering. If you never paid so much attention to your body type before the baby came, now is the perfect time to make amends. The fact that you have decluttered your wardrobe makes it easy to get new clothes that fit perfectly while playing up your beautiful features. Read more about dressing to suit your body type here.

3. Create Sections in Your Wardrobe:

It is very important to build an easy wardrobe layout. This will not only help you locate fashion items within a shorter time, it will also help you utilize almost every piece you have before starting the cycle again. Seeing everything makes it easy for you to mix and match. Hang up your shirts and dresses (in a pattern). Hanging similar items together prevents one item from staying hidden. Fold your bottoms and arrange them so you can see everything without removing other items (all skirts together, all the leggings together etc.). Have a little bag or storage box for your underwear so you can choose these smaller (matching) pieces quickly. Set up your shoe rack in a corner of the room and lay out your footwear by keeping each pair together. Get a jewelry organizer for your tiny accessories so you can make quick decisions. Having a well-planned layout will make it easy to pick your outfits in little time.

4. Make a List:

For every time you pick out what to wear, you have the chance to take note of what you need. You can have sticky notes on your wardrobe doors to write the needed item(s) so you don’t forget. This way, you know exactly what you want to buy the next time you go to the store.

5. Have a Colour Scheme:

Knowing the right colour choices for your skin tone can help you match items to give you the perfect look. Your skin tone is the reason some colours don’t work for you while some are just perfect. Based on experience, you can tell the colours that make you pop and the ones that make you look otherwise. This knowledge can help you choose fashion pieces that will make you look coordinated and confident (like a well prepared bowl of fruit salad *wink*). Don’t be afraid to try new things from time to time. Dressing experiments can help you learn new things while creating your own style. Embrace it.

6. Prepare for the Week:

Making choices in a hurry defeats the purpose of having a rich wardrobe. The beauty of having an organized wardrobe is in utilizing it. Bottom-line: Slaying requires preparation. Spend a few minutes on Saturday or Sunday to choose and iron the outfits for the week. This will not only help you look stunning every day for five days, it reduces the pressure of doing so much in very little time. All you get to do is throw on your clothes and go on to work. You should also have a compact makeup purse that has all the essentials in your selected bag for the day or week. This way, you can apply your makeup anywhere. Do not forget to carry a pair of slippers for that time you get when you take off your high heels.

7. Get Your Confidence Back:

This is the cherry on your fashion cake. Your outfit will look blah if you walk into the room looking like a sad clown. Hold your head up high, move gracefully and smile. The world is your canvas. Paint the way you like and enjoy the process.

Now that you know what you need to do, get up and slay!
