Fashionable Tips To Achieve That Gypsy Look

Since Coachella season is closing in, that only means more and more reason to style up for the festival. Over the years, the bohemian, gypsy look has started to dominate the scene. The free-spirited look or gypsy / boho look has always been one of my favorites, and I have some tips and tricks on how to wear the gypsy look.

Since it became a big social media trend a few years ago, the boho style has always been known as an avenue of fashion focusing on self expression. The independent and free-spirited style inspired by the gypsy movement has created a series of garments putting up fashion pieces. What I love about it is that they are not only eclectic and comfortable, gypsy and boho clothing leaves us girls a lot of freedom to choose whatever item to wear, without judging us.

However, there are still things that you need to bear in min to avoid looking weird and unflattering in boho. Here are some tips that I can give you in order to look good while wearing

Get Inspired By Vintage Items.

Open your parents’ and grandparents’ old cabinets and chest and see what fashion items you can get. A wide brown vintage belt can be used to accentuate a loose paisley top. Boho is all about freedom, and freedom means using up everything in your house, right?

Do play with colors.

Boho style comes with different bold colors. Mix and match patterns with the same hue or pair them with earth tones.

Don’t Wear Lots Of Colors

Boho might be all about freedom and individuality, but it doesn’t mean that you are allowed to look funny as a clown by combining colors. You can try to wear colorful paisley designs for your pants or top, but try not to combine colorful tops and bottoms.

Do play with accessories.

Long necklaces made up of beads, pearls or feather accents is a great way to accessorize your. It is not considered bohemian if you stick to one simple accessory, so go for that authentic boho look by wearing necklaces, hand laces, bracelets and even floral headbands!

Still, the key to achieving a perfect accessory game is to not go overboard. If you are going to play with accessories, choose properly where to place them. Look at the mirror and see if you look good in these tapered baggy pants from Shezgood before heading out!

Wearing Wide Leg Pants? Read These Tips First

While some people might be intimidated to wear wide-legged pants, there is no reason why you should avoid wearing them too! Knowing how to rock palazzo or wide leg pants can do a lot to improve your versatility and add variation to the clothes that you wear.

Pear shaped women and short women can really benefit from wearing wide legged pant. Since they draw extra attention to the ankle and hips, and form an “A” shape going down. you will find that the upper part of the pants where your hips and waist are appear narrower with the palazzo.

Some examples of wide leg pants are:

  • High waist – full flare: good if you want to hide a muffin top or want to create an hourglass figure as it accentuates the waist.
  • Tight upper pants – small flare: good if you have skinny legs. Not so good if you have saddle bags.
  • Standard leg – wide flare: Good to hide thicker thighs.
  • Wide leg – very wide pants all over and good for tall women. Short or bulky women, be careful with this style!

Some additional tips on how to wear wide pants

  • Buy them long. I don’t like the look of flared pants that are too short. It’s nice when your pants hide your high heels.
  • Wide pants look particularly good if you define your waist with a belt.
  • Try to balance the total look and wear something slim fitting on top. Flared pants can make for a very classical look so they will look great with a well fitted shirt.
  • Although a slim fitting top is the easiest and most flattering way to wear wide pants,
  • I also like to combine them with short dresses and wider tops. It’s a tougher look to pull of, but I personally like the silhouette it creates.
  • Short people can also wear wide pants. Just make sure they are more fitted at the top and the pants don’t flare too much.
  • Although wide legged pants can be perfect for the pear body shape, make sure you don’t have any side pockets as that will add extra bulk.
  • Pear shapes also benefit from flat front pants, as opposed to pleated ones.
  • Want even longer legs? Try flared pants with vertical stripes.
  • Wear them with heels!

Wide-legged pants are one of the best bottoms to wear if you want to stand out from the crowd. IF you want to purchase some nice wide-legged pants, start with these nice pants from Mix x Mix

How To Wear Colored Jeans Like A Pro

Fitting the mannequin really well, making us think how it would look on us if we purchase it. That colored jeans in the store that makes us want to buy a pair, after all, they seem like such a refreshing departure from your blue jeans.  However, you find yourself intimidated and you don’t know if you could wear them right.. so what do you do?

While putting together looks with a pair of colored jeans isn’t as hard as you think, especially with all the color blocking that is blooming for Summer and Spring, you still need to know how to wear them right. Here are my tips on how to wear colored jeans, along with some looks I put together using some of the more popular colored jeans colors for the season!

Fit Is First

Sure, colorful jeans are the bomb! You may find a fun purple pair of jeans, or a great creamy pair that would seem like an awesome addition to your wardrobe.  But before you even pick them up, think long and hard about whether or not the fit of the jeans are right for you. Color might be enticing, but it doesn’t mean anything if it doesn’t fit!

Work With Your Body Shape

When wearing colored pants, you really need to think about your body shape.  Black is easier to wear, as we all know they can  even make us thinner, but colored pants is another story. Colored pants can show off the flaws that we would rather hide, so choose the right color that will also hide your flaws — which are darker-toned ones.

Always Stay Within The Color Palette

Always try to make your pants work with the rest of your outfit. Pants are often thought of as unimportant. but in reality they also make or break your whole outfit. Choose colors that are in the color palette and color wheel that would complement your outfit.

Colored pants might be tricky to wear, but it doesn’t mean that you should be afraid to wear them. Here are some nice colored and ripped pants from Daba Girl if you are interested to purchase one!

 

How To Make High Waist Pants Work

While I personally can’t imagine going back to the hey days of low-rise denim pants, wearing some high-waisted pants is similarly tricky to pull off. Aside from needing to be tall and thin to fully appreciate this cut, the right fit is also essential when wearing the high waist pants. Properly wearing the high-waist will help you set them apart from the dreaded “mom’s pants:. Because the right fit and right pair accentuates the waist and hips the hips, you are able to look trendy in a high waist pants without looking like someone who is wearing her mom’s pants. Lately, this trend has been hitting the streets, where it is easy to look for a dose of inspiration.

I love high waist pants because hide love handles, belly bulges, and front flab. They keep shirts properly tucked-in. Best of all, they don’t give you a muffin top or show a plumber’s crack. No wonder, then, that the high-waisted style is on the rise.

If you’ve already gone out and decided to buy yourself a pair of high-waisted bottoms, but ended up unsure on how to make them work nicely for you, I have identified some things to remember and avoid so that your high-waisted pants look sophisticated. This vintage, high-waist style is very popular because, contrary to what many believe, it is a style that can work for everyone. High-waist pants looks appealing to the older customer who needs a little more coverage and also to the young fashionista who is on the verge of every popular trend that comes to the market.”

Furthermore, the beauty of this trend also works for plus-sized women. Like I said earlier, the high waist pants is able to hide and mask so many flaws. For petite women, high-waisted pants and shorts can elongate the legs to make you look taller.

Unfortunately, the high-waisted look does have a downside. If worn incorrectly, you’ll risk channeling the “dreaded mom’s pants” spirit. But fear not! If you wear the high pants just like I told you, you will look classy and preppy too!

Ways To Wear The Skinny Jeans

Casual and comfy. Easy to wear and wash. Very stylish and trendy, as long as you know how to wear it and what to wear with it.

Tired of the guessing game?

Truth be told, I am willing to bet every single dime in my pocket right now that every person reading this post this very moment owns a pair of jeans. I mean, who doesn’t” Skinny jeans are versatile, fashionable, easy to wear, stylishly cool, easy to find and easy to care for. There is a pair of jeans available at every price point, so you won’t have to go broke trying to rock one.

However, even with the raw and untamed look of jeans, I think one of the most favorite jeans of many is the skinny jeans. I also bet every single person reading this has wondered, at some point or another, how to wear skinny jeans and still look different every day. There’s only so many ankle boot-and-sweater or white shirt and skinny jeans combos a girl can take, so here are some of my humble suggestions on how to wear a skinny jeans.

Tips When Wearing Skinny Jeans

Whether styling beat-up skinnies with a pair of unexpectedly dressy shoes, or choosing pairs with cool details like zippers, rips, or cuffs, wearing skinny jeans is exciting for sure!

Choose the right tone and color. Bright jeans and loud patterns that can direct attention to your whole outfit is something that you can try during Summer or Spring. Wearing these will give you a fun, trendy and hip look. But if you want the skinny jeans to actually make you look skinnier, then pick a darker solid color.

Choose the right size — not too loose nor too tight. Most jeans are made of denim, a material that is not as flexible as other materials. If you want your jeans to stretch a bit, you should choose a pair that is a denim and spandex blend. The spandex in the jeans will allow you to bend and move more easily and may make wearing the jeans more comfortable.

Wearing skinny jeans is really great, especially if you have got some nice sneakers to show for your outfit. The skinny jeans will make the sneakers pop out and it will make you look even taller.

Women Wearing Pinstripes? Why Not!

Whenever I think of bankers and businessmen, the pinstripe suit is always something I associate with them. While slowly making its way from being a business suit to transforming into a mainstream wear over the last decade, the pinstripe style has also crossed over from a male clothing to a female clothing attire.

Having said that, a little advice is never a bad thing. So to that end , I would like to offer my little well of advice to women who are looking to try a pinstripe coat.

HISTORY OF THE PINSTRIPE SUIT

The vest, introduced to England, by King Charles II and described by diarist Samuel Pepys in 1666 as “a cassocke close to the body, of black cloth and a coat over it.” Consider the trouser cuff made popular 200 years later by Edward, Prince of Wales, who—as the story goes—turned up his pants’ bottoms the “wrong” way (by accident) in the course of a muddy day’s hunting. Or the jacket, a modern version of the coat worn in the 18th century by workers and young boys and adopted by the Prince of Wales in the 1850s.

The sheer exuberance of the contemporary stripe now for 2012 has taken up the classics, but in enhanced, more colorful versions—classics with a twist to them. The new looks can now be rendered in lighter, fresher fabrics.

Can Women Wear Pinstripes?

The truth is that women can take advantage of the patterns such as stripes. With the elongating effect that can make you look taller, wearing pinstripes is something that you should be thinking of. Being tall might not feel like an encumbrance but a woman wearing a pinstripe will get the same heightening effects as wearing heels. IF you are going for this kind of look, pinstripes can really help you

The pinstripe coat and pants, when combined, shoes sophistication, power and imposing will, which can be great if you are a petite woman trying to look bigger and taller. Wearing pinstripes also shows you mean business, and this is a great thing when you are attending formal meetings or interviews.

At the end of the day, crossing over from masculine to feminine clothing is so common that many girls often take advantage of doing this trend. If you are interested to try wearing pinstripe clothing, check out this pinstriped jacket and pants from Miamasvin today

How To Wear Creamy Pastels Fashionably?

Pastel colors are some of my most favorite colors. You know why? Because they make me look and feel younger compared to other colors!
Pastel colors have long been associated with babies and girls — and rightfully so! They have a soft and delicate appeal to them that only you cannot find in other colorways. Whenever I wear pastel, I feel like I am younger and a delicate yet subtle feeling falls down over me. Well, this might be an exaggeration of some sorts, but i really do feel younger whenever I wear pastel colors for my clothing!

Are You Scared Of Wearing Pastel?

Some ladies that I’ve talked to told me that they were somewhat afraid to wear pastel colors. If you’ve been wondering how to wear pastels but don’t want to commit to the trend just yet, what you can do is start with some little accessories first. To avoid looking too girly, I like to balance out my outfit with edgy leather pastel baubles. Also, a few gems or trinkets are important in order to really make a subtle impression
If you’re not afraid to jump on the pastel bandwagon, color blocking will keep you sweet and sophisticated. Going darker on the bottom and lighter on top can really make the pastel colors stand out. Alternatively, you can also take your ensemble up a few notches with bright bottoms and a pastel top. I’ve tried both and have never been disappointed by the ultra-sexy results that it gave me!
When figuring out how to wear pastels, remember this key tip — keep your eye shadows, hair and makeup simple. Since pastel hues are soft and feminine, you should also try to be subtle with your other areas such as hair and makeup so that they don’t overpower your outfit.
At the end of the day, it is not that difficult to wear pastel colors as long as you have some light colored clothes to go along with it. Too vibrant and your pastel will be overpowered — just a reminder when you are on the hunt for some clothes to go along with your pastel pants!

How To Wear Ripped Jeans For Women?

 

As the change in direction for denim is ever evolving, shredded jeans have transitioned from the working man’s (or woman’s) uniform and its super-sloppy aesthetic to a street style staple associated with fashionable dressing. Once deemed decidedly inappropriate for most occasions, it seems distressed denim experienced an unexpected shift, turning it into a testament of effortless style.

Most of the time, we complain about the style restrictions winter puts on our wardrobes. But while it’s true that blizzard temps and punishing wind-chills can limit your fashion choices, there are definitely some upsides to getting dressed in the cold. Yes, it’s great to feel the freedom of a warm breeze against your simple outfit of a T-shirt and jeans. But cold weather means more layers and ultimately more ways to look cool, not to mention all the boss outerwear and boots. With this in mind we thought we’d show you a few great ways to dress for warmth and look cooler for it, starting with ripped jeans.

This is a perfect example of how to show off your layering prowess rather than trying to hide it. Letting your long underwear show through the holes in you jeans gives them some added punk appeal. So why not channel a masculine aura in your woman style? Think of Johnny Depp, Kurt Cobain, or even young Jared Leto with this nod to ’90s grunge! You’ll be warm and you won’t have to put away your favorite sneakers too. (A note about color matching: Wear black base layers under black or blue jeans, but only wear white ones under lighter blue washes)

One way to wear the ripped denim jeans is by layering. Layer your ripped jeans appropriately with an oversized sweater to remain bundled up with a hint of skin showing. If you like to look a bit taller and you have the tolerance for wearing heels, bring your distressed jeans to new heights when you pair them with a set of pointed pumps. Another way to look classy in ripped denim is to team your black denim with a basic blazer to elevate your look from daytime to nighttime.
