Expert Answer

Confidence is the best way to look attractive - if you feel good you will look good to you and others! The best way to do this is find clothes you feel great in. Make sure you take care of them and yourself - hygiene is just as important as the clothes you wear.

Expert Answer

You don't need expensive things to be stylish - you need to have a good understanding of who you are and what your style wants to portray. Be consistent and true to yourself. Stay informed on fashion trends and what's new, but never be a slave to it. Remember trends are seasonal and should never be followed exactly and always.

Question

How many clothes do I need as a minimum? I don't have much space and really, I don't care to spend all my time choosing outfits.

Community Answer

Have at least five casual outfits and three dressy outfits; along with pieces in between casual and dressy. You will also need a couple of pairs of pajamas, socks and some underwear. Things you only need one of include: A swimsuit, coat, jacket, and a nice sweater. For shoes, you only need one or two dressy pairs, and about three casual pairs, along with a pair of boots. If you're sporty, have one of each item needed, as most sportswear washes and dries quickly.

Question

How can I make my own hairstyle?

Community Answer

Think about what sort of person you are (e.g. outgoing, introverted), what sort of styles you like (e.g. retro, punk, hippie), and how much time/money you have to spend on your hair. If you don't have a lot of time or money, avoid hairstyles and colors that require a lot of work (e.g. curling or bleaching). If you want to color your hair, consider how the color will look with your skin tone and eye color. If you want to cut your hair, consider how it will look with your face shape (see How to Determine Your Face Shape ). You can also go to a hair salon and ask a stylist for some ideas.

Question

What if you my mom doesn't let me buy the clothes I want?

Community Answer

Turn your existing clothes into your own style with some embellishments and changes. Borrow clothes from friends and make a lot of use of accessories, scarves, etc. Save up your own money and ask for clothing vouchers or cash for birthdays, etc.

Question

Will a shiny, gold-colored chain necklace go with sweatpants worn with a sweatshirt or T-shirt?

Community Answer

A bit - if the the necklace is not showing a lot. Gold necklaces mostly go with dresses - not with a sweatshirt or T-shirt.

Question

I am too shy about wearing white and other light colors what do I do?

Community Answer

It is good to go out of your comfort zone, but start small, don't just suddenly wear a neon green top out of nowhere! Start with a pastel top here and there, and or even some lighter colored accessories. Just branch out gradually.

Question

How do I get my parents to let me wear a crop top?

Community Answer

Wear a large crop top and something like a tank top underneath so you can still show the style, but not show skin.
