I'm glad someone asked about this! I DIDN'T MEAN TO. What happened was that my regular hairdresser wasn't there to trim my bangs, so this other guy did it instead and THINNED OUT my bangs!!! I was so mad! So now if I tried to push it forward it looks gross and weird. So I have to push it to the side. I'm waiting til it grows out a little so I can re-cut them. Sigh.
For men I would recommend two things - always have things altered to fit and don't be afraid of colour in moderation. A simple tie pin and a fitted sleeve do wonders. Also - this is a lulu outfit? (Couldn't resist.)
They are black! I think it helps that it is not that opaque and the shoes are a dark chocolate brown.
I really look forward to your fashion "lessons". They're such fun reads AND really helpful.
How to make a garment look expensive Add as Favorite Photo
Here is part 1 of my 2 part series on putting together an outfit aka how to make a garment look expensive. Tomorrow, how that garment can go horribly wrong and end up looking really trashy. That isn’t the official title yet. I’m working on it…
I took a trip to Nordstroms and picked up a few items to demonstrate today’s lesson. This basic $28 color block dress serves as the foundation for both parts of this series. It’s not really my style, but for these purposes, it’ll have to do.
Neckwear – both jewelry and scarves add interest to a plain neckline. However, instead of tossing on any ragged scarf, take a tip from fellow Chictopian ouijesuis and tie your scarf in a bow.
Stockings/ tights – take a cue from our British users like Kirsty and experiment with different shades, colors, and patterns. It adds a bit of class to an otherwise uninteresting summer dress.
Lace ups – a classic heeled lace up shoe does a lot to enhance your look without distracting. Making a garment look expensive is all about complimenting the outfit, rather than showing off distracting pieces. And they’re a favorite amongst my Co-ed Uglies annabel and lindarrr.
Part two tomorrow!
