If you already know how to choose t-shirts and jeans according to your body type, and you’ve mastered the skills of – no, not Jedi – but putting together outfits according to the weather, then it’s time to take it up a notch. Now we will learn how to introduce spectacular details into images, which will be discussed by a professional star stylist. Remember – and practice!
The main letter in the stylist’s alphabet is “I”, i.e. individuality. Everything revolves around this concept! Each person is unique, and the task of the stylist is to find and “wrap” the individuality in such a way that you feel comfortable and that you do not think about the details at all. But if you are working on your own wardrobe, then you should arm yourself with five basic rules that star stylists always use when working with clients.
Create a foundation, a capsule that is always and everywhere “about you”. Yes, this might not be new advice – but let’s be honest, have you really put together a basic wardrobe? Everyone has their own “starting” lineup, it depends on the character, type, character, field of activity, daily tasks and a lot of introductory ones.
You don’t need that much: about 10 things that mix with each other and combine into a new image every time. This saves money, space and resources for scanning malls or online stores. By the way, I often advise consulting a good stylist at this stage: once you invest, you won’t suffer for years with the question “why is it so hard for me to find clothes”. And do not slander the wardrobe – again, he did not prepare anything new.

The secret partly follows from the previous advice. Any basic look can be refreshed with accessories: one detail changes the whole image! Nuances make the picture complete, consider it the author’s touch. Accessories are the pinnacle and a powerful tool in the hands of fashionistas.
Whoever controls the accessories controls the style – that’s my firm belief. Therefore, you should pay attention to bags and jewelry of unusual shape and structure: it is more affordable than collecting 2-3 new clothes according to your mood.
Find a good “editor” of the wardrobe – a studio or a craftsman, who is always ready to adjust the thing to the figure, if necessary, slightly reshape it, restore it if you are mentally attached to your old jeans, for example. In addition, a seamstress can always approach the task creatively and offer something that you did not guess yourself.
So firstly, don’t forget to get things right and don’t wear pants that are frankly too big for you, and secondly, don’t be afraid to ask the gentleman for advice.
Money. Use them as directed. A million trendy jackets in different cuts, colors and lengths do not equal a pair of really stylish and (important!) cardigans that suit you. Spend wisely without getting carried away. The trend will come to nothing, but the style will stay with you forever. Another thing is that each trend can be individualized – then it can be reasonable to invest in a good thing once and for several seasons.
But in any case, check yourself before buying something new: did you just catch fire after seeing the bloggers, or do you already know what and when you will wear this thing? Just don’t answer honestly!
Yes, life is not always a carrot. But every morning—even if it’s not a birthday or a company party—is still an opportunity to feel special. Don’t be afraid to experiment, we only live once!
Cargo pants and a top can be complemented not with old sneakers, but with metallic sandals, a light bag or accessories. A formal suit will play with multi-layered beads or chains. Even the image with a white uniform blouse can be transformed if you add large rings or a scarf instead of a belt on your pants.
Filters? Yes! A silver bag? Why not! You may not find the balance right away, but gradually you will understand how to add holiday to your everyday look. And your wardrobe will never be the same.
To sum it up, I’ll say: fashion is good, but don’t let it take you hostage. Don’t get carried away by labels and trends. A thing can be “at least a hundred times” in quality and design and be at the peak of popularity, but if the style is not yours, it is automatically “cancelled”.
As you can see, America did not have to be discovered, everything is quite easy and accessible. Styling stars have grown out of following life’s tricks of image-makers and recognizing their own “self” – and all stylists guide their clients to do this, starting with these simple tips.
