I’m so bored with looking like everyone else out there! I want to stand out and look unique! I love sewing my own clothes and making jewelry, and i tend to like more retro styles. Could a kind fashionista out there give me tips and ideas for creating a new style identity for myself? Thank You!!!!
I’m with you about breaking out from the “norm”!
I suggest you experiment a few looks first so that you know which style suit you the most.
A few ways you could go about it:
1) Dress yourself up based on “themes” - e.g. bohemian chic, hollywood glamour, rock, retro etc.
2) Take reference from magazine and try to get inspirations e.g. try to re-work certain looks featured in the fashion spreads to your budget and since you love to sew, you could even get dress-making inspirations from them
3) Take a look at your wardrobe and think about how you could pair certain pieces up with others that you’ve never really thought of pairing with or think of creative ways that you could possibly wear that dress that you’ve never worn before after you’ve bought it
4) Get a friend to dress up and she in turn dresses you up, perhaps you could get some inspirations from the activity
Hope this helps
