Fashion Tabu

It is better to avoid heavy looking footwear if you are a petite delicately built person.

Though most of us have a couple of favourite footwear, it is a good idea to rotate them so that they do not get worn out faster.

I find that most of the people genuinely believe that their size presents a barrier to their style because they are severely limited in the colours and designs they can wear. The truth is much more positive.

Long sleeves in a sheer fabric like lace or net is a great option for women who want to cover their arms yet still look feminine.

Although traditional styles in jewellery will never go out of fashion, it is the newer contemporary patterns which are finding current favour.

Fashion is not definitive and varies from person to person. What works for one may not work for the other.

Fabric is the key source to any dress.

For a more versatile way to wear abstract prints trend, opt for a simple maxi or shirtdress and let the print do all the work. Adding a colour accent via a simple clutch and vintage, finishes the look.

White, as a statement is a wardrobe necessity.

 Dressing is the most important aspect of our identity and personality.

Colours have a poetic association and can denote the mood of the person wearing it because colours have personalities.

Buy what feels comfortable, not what size you thought you were.

Know your measurements before you shop. Not only will it cut down the time you spend trying on clothes, it will help you choose outfits that fit your body perfectly.

Even the most chic of ensembles will lack a little something if you have not worn a smile.

You should not wear a bag that reaches past the end of your hip as this will make the top half of the body look too long.

Using disposable hangers while travelling means you don't have to worry about losing them.

Store zardozi clothes in a cotton fabric so that they do not tarnish easily.

Dress to make yourself happy and you will be well dressed most of the time.

Remix getting the most from your clothes.

The advantage of buying pearls is that they never go out of fashion.

If your longest toe is nudging the shie, don't buy it, whatever the salesman says - the shoes will not be comfortable.

Comfort is important when your mind is at work. If your attire is not comfortable, your entire day can get ruined.

 Sometimes you realise there is a missing button when you are amidst people and it's too late to go home and change. Carry safety pins in your handbag.

A quiet mood is represented by light to medium colour combinations. Dark colours convey an aura of power and authority.

If you are of average height, avoid wearing oversize sleeves, bold prints, bulky fabric, too many colour breaks and dresses that are too long.

As long as fashion remains, there will always be a demand for personal shoppers.
