Before You Adopt a New Fashion Trend...


Fall will be here before we know it. This means new fall fashion! But how do you determine which trend(s) will best fit your personality, lifestyle, size, and shape? My biggest tip to you, before you go shopaholic crazy (besides staying on a buget), is this: Think comfort! 

Whether you are ready for tall, camel-colored knee-high boots or want to finally try out a pant jumper, be real with yourself. After you consider all of the aforementioned factors, such as your size, shape, and lifestyle, think about how you move when wearing an item of clothing. It's a problem, folks, if when you bend over you have to hold the back of your pants up, squat and rip your jeans, walk in heeled shoes and want to cry 'cause of pinched toes, and/or wear a blouse and the front buttons fly off.

Speaking from experience, when you think comfort, everything else will fall into place. So before you adopt a new trend, know thy body first.

Never spend mega bucks on trendy fashions or accessories. They only stay in style for a season or two, and then you can't wear them or you will look dated.
