>> How to find your S-t-y-L-e

Text by Latifat Opoola @LatifatOpoola Rachel Zoe once said that “style is a way to say who you are without having to speak.” Although it takes a lot of trial and error to develop your style, it is far better to try and fail than not trying at all. It’s your style - no rules and seasons governing it. So now we ask: what’s your personal style? Flip through the pages to discover:

#1. Understand Your Body Type: Understanding your body type is very vital in this journey, because its a guide to knowing what work best for you. By understanding your body, you’re sure of buying the right cloth with the best silhouettes.

#2. Conduct a Thorough Wardrobe Screening: This part can be painful because you’ll have to do away with so many things. Start by getting rid of anything that does not make you feel good and comfortable no matter how much you bought them.

#3. Take Pictures or Keep Diary: Keep tabs on every outfit you wear out every day and keep records on the one that makes you feel good.

#4. Know The Colour That Work Best For You: Understand how certain colours makes you feel, and I think is only YOU that can know the best color that work best for you.

#5. Identify You True Style: After going through the step in #3 and #4, you should be able to identity your style now. Make use of your pinterest board and instagram - pin any celebrity, fashion editor, blogger or It-girl outfits that has your same style DNA to your board and copy it.

By doing this, you’re beginning to build and refine your style.
