how to:always look put together

hoetipsbyangel:

-stick to solid colors. black,olive,khaki,white,grey,navy,nude, etc. the options are endless. try to stay away from super loud colors.

-keep patterns to a minimal. if you do want to wear a pattern,keep it to a purse,nails or a scarf.

-always be properly groomed. have your eyebrows & nails done. have your hair washed and styled always (even if it’s just a bun)

-if you have to go to an event last minute but don’t have time to do a full blown eye shadow look, just put bronzer in your crease and highlight the inner corners of your eyes.

-take care of your clothes & shoes! don’t wear anything with holes or anything dirty. if it’s falling apart, throw it away.

-heels can make your outfit look more put together, even if you’re just wearing jeans.

-have at least ONE nice high quality jacket. 

-wear less jewelry. keep it to 2 pieces at most.

-when in doubt, wear black. it’s easily styled and looks good.

-spray rose water or evian water on your face throughout the day to look moisturized and radiant.

-dark lipstick can make you look like you spent time on your makeup. if you don’t have time to beat your face, just wear a dark plum or red lippie along with some eyeliner and skip the shadow all together. 

-cotton,linen,and nice quality soft synthetic fabrics tend to look nicer than super hard, rough,plastic like ones.

-having all designer things is nice, but not always practical. having one or two designer things and a lot of regular clothes is better than breaking the bank and having only a few designer things and nothing else.

-have a few clothes tailored. alterations are your friend and can make inexpensive clothes look expensive (not to mention, it’s cheap!)
