matter what the occasion
perhaps you know somebody like that i
know i do well have you ever wondered
how they always get it so right
well today i'm going to share with you
seven secrets they follow to alway
looking put together
is taking care of your things so that
they always look in tip-top condition
you will tend to find that a
well-dressed woman spends time keeping
her things in beautiful condition
and always looking pristine things you
can do to keep your clothes looking like
new
is when you wash your clothes turn
everything inside
out to stop the fabrics fading and to
protect
any embroidery or buttons but you should
also try to wash your clothes less
if you've got any stains tackle them
straight away
the longer they sit in the fabric the
harder it will be to remove
and if you do do a season changeover and
store your clothes away
always clean them first as any untreated
food or drink stains can attract the
insects
try spraying perfume and hairspray on
before you get dressed
as the alcohol can fade and sometimes
discolor
and stain clothes wire hangers are
really bad for your clothes and they put
stress on the shoulders of your tops and
dresses and they can actually rip
through delicate fabrics so instead
invest in some beautiful
velvet wooden or even padded hangers
there's just a few ways to keep your
clothes looking as good as possible for
as long as possible
looking put together doesn't mean being
a fuddy-duddy or
looking like you're stuck in the past to
keep looking
and feeling young i think it's good to
know what's in style now
but the secret is to pick and choose
trends that will pair nicely with
classic pieces
to keep a really fresh modern look a
classic white shirt
will never go out of style to give it an
update this season it can be worn with a
sweater vest
a great look for any age a seasonal
shirt is always a wardrobe favorite
as it's so easy to style but try a
different fabric like faux leather
with a classic knit or a t-shirt to give
it a seasonal upgrade
knowing the trends and then adapting
them to your style is an
easy way to look more polished and put
together
the lady i know who always looks
wonderful she always has
fabulous looking nails it's something
that i always notice about her
you'd never ever see her with chip nail
varnish or dirty nails
i guess the secret isn't knowing that
regular manicures can make your hands
and nails look good
but the secret is knowing the confidence
that beautiful hands and nails can give
you
and that's what makes you feel put
together if you can afford it it's a
lovely luxury to be able to have regular
salon manicures
but if not there are lots of wonderful
manicure sets available
especially right now for those pampering
christmas gifts
a well-dressed lady knows about
detailing now these are all little
things that you may not have even
noticed on her
but she's put time on these things and
these things all add up to that polished
look
the belt on a coat or a trench coat may
just be knotted
but to look more polished the knot has
been carefully tied
very beautifully to look quite chic
scars are not just
thrown on but tied in ways to look
elegant and classy
consideration has been taken with
accessories like belts and bags
whether to wear one or not and which
color works best with the outfit
all these small details really do make a
difference
knowing the importance of fit is a game
changer and it can completely change
your look
one size doesn't fit all we're all
different shapes and sizes
so you have to know what suits you
individually and then adjust it to your
shape
the best way to get clothes to fit is to
try them on and not pay
too much attention to the size tags as
they vary so much from stall to store
use them just as a guide to get started
for trousers the general rule of thumb
is you should be able to put two fingers
in the waistband
for a little bit of wiggle room for
blazers
if you can't comfortably steer your car
or give someone a hug n
then it's too tight expect to try on
lots of jeans to get the perfect fit
they are very difficult to get a fit
that looks great and is comfortable too
the key to a properly fitting
button-down shirt
is the seams they should lie flat and
you've got to watch out for gaping
dresses the shoulders of a dress are the
hanger and if it doesn't fit there
chances are it's not going to hang very
well on you
other important things to take note of
are the trouser and sleeve length too
i recently bought this coat from zara
it's absolutely beautiful but the
sleeves are far too long for me
i could keep it like that but it just
looks scruffy but if i have the sleeves
taken up just an inch or so it will make
the coat look
so much better if you find yourself a
fantastic tailor
he can transform cheap unfitting clothes
to make them look like they were made
for you
a well-dressed woman knows the
difference between being comfy
and being sloppy the dress down culture
does seem to have gone to the extremes
lately and
sadly it now does seem that being sloppy
is now fashionable
right now there is so much choice out
there for beautiful loungewear
or comfortable outfits to wear at home
all these sets i found
are gorgeous pieces that can be worn
around the home and still look stylish
but other than loungewear just by adding
a scarf or some jewelry
we'll just up an outfit and it will
still be comfortable
but look far more put together without
much effort
the real secret of every well-dresse
put together woman is confidence
in truth it doesn't matter what they're
wearing because they carry and hold
themselves
with confidence and i guess that comes
down to good posture
it's simple to fake confidence through
posture the shoulders are the real
giveaway
just by pulling them back and lifting up
the chin you can
instantly look like you're a more
confident woman even if you don't feel
like it
i don't think this is anything i've ever
shared with you before but i'm actually
a qualified ballet teacher
and i was actually thinking about doing
a blog on good posture
and i'd like to know if that's something
you'd be interested in so
do let me know in the comments box below .
bye for now.
