I thought I would post on how I choose my outfits day-in day-out. That is after all an essential part of everyday life and the foundations upon what your personal style is built. Everyone has their own personal edge which is one of the more beautiful things about the fashion industry.
I usually choose my outfit in the shower, (hence the title), I find this is the best place to think and where I usually come up with my best ideas.
To begin, I always start with the trousers, I have numerous pairs but countless more t-shirts, therefore it is easier to choose the trousers first so then I can add a t-shirt that works with relative ease. I like to play with the colours I’m wearing by adding a heavily patterned piece to block colours to create an interesting contrast. This is a very simple but effective way of looking stylish and on trend. From here, the belt and the shoes go on, ensuring that they match both each other and my outfit. Finally, a jumper or cardigan if the weather requires it.
Another way in which I choose my outfits is by looking at what celebrities are wearing, after all, a lot of them have a stylist so who am I to question their professional advice. It is important to find a celebrity who has a similar frame to you and a look that isn’t out of your comfort zone. My go-to celebrities of the moment are One Direction. Like them or not, these boys have incredible fashion taste and always look the part, they are young, fun and living life to the full, just like I try to be, (I am in fact quite young though, not a old man desperately trying to cling on to his youth.) Make sure that if you choose a celebrity for fashion ideas, they are similar to you in both size and how they portray themselves.
So there we have it, I hope that this has been informative for you. I would be interested in hearing your views on this issue and whether you follow the fashion advice of any celebrity so please leave a comment.
