Add a belt to bring a touch of style to a simple outfit. The options are almost infinite when it comes to the styles, colors and designs of belts that you can purchase these days. When you're wearing a monochrome look, a pop of color around your midsection can add interest to your outfit.

An up-do is a fantastic way to change your appearance for a period of time. There is rarely time while at work or school to deal with long hair. If you've no time to primp, use an elastic hairband and casually tie back your hair.

Go through your closet and clean it out once in a while. You might think having more clothes gives you more options in outfits, but the opposite is actually true. A closet that is packed full and is cluttered only limits you. Get rid of clothes that you don't wear anymore so you know what options you have available. Classic pieces are the best to keep.

If you are on the larger side it is best to avoid any articles of clothing that sport horizontal stripes. This will make your body look much wider than it is. What you want are vertical stripes instead of horizontal stripes. Vertical patterns make you look taller instead of wider.

Using a different color in your hair is great for a summer fashion. However, don't do it too often or your hair will get unhealthy. Use conditioner and clean your hair every day for the best look.

If you are wearing a plus size and want to look smaller, stay away from floral patterns with large shapes and flowers. Larger shapes can hurt your image of trying to look thin. Find a dress with smaller patterns to reduce the emphasis on your body size and more on the detail.

Every woman should have a few essentials in their closet. For starters, you should have two pairs of dark-colored dress slacks at the very least. You should also have a pair of hemmed jeans to wear with your heels, and also a pair that are for sneakers. And last but not least, you need that proverbial "little black dress" if you're serious about making a fashion statement.

If your budget for fashion is on the low end, you shouldn't be ashamed of letting people around you know this. Let your friends know you would enjoy owning some of their items when they are ready to part with them. This lets you look great for less.

You may have been wondering how you were ever going to stay on top of fashion. However, you probably have figured out that you can tailor your fashion to your tastes so that you can figure out how to better express who you are. Keep this advice in mind, and keep learning all you can about the wonderful world of fashion.
