Fashion Basics: Look Good on Little
Don’t read this article if you have unlimited funds right now and can buy anything you want to make yourself look good. But if you’re like lots of people these days, you need options because even though you’re down in the ditch money-wise, you don’t want to look like that in front of everyone, especially if you’re hustling to get or keep your job.The first motto is this: get basic. Neutral basics form the core of a good wardrobe at any age. Now isn’t the time to get that dress you might only wear once or that have-to-have outfit bought on the fly that you wonder about later when the fashion statement of the season is past its season. The seasons pass, and soon that dress will be too short, the pants too wide, the jacket color impossible to wear with anything other than the skirt you used when you tried it on the first time. So let’s begin with those basics and see how your wardrobe will come alive, make you feel good, and not cost much.First, what are the basics? Some folks don’t know. Most people don’t look good in all black, but with a collar, scarf, chunky piece of jewelry at the throat, lots of ladies look smashing. Have something black around, pants, skirt and dress, especially that little black dress you hear about needs to be a closet staple. Two scarves, that one chunky piece just discussed, and a string of fake pearls and you’re in business.
