Who says you can’t look stylish well into your adulthood? If you’re still in your twenties, you’re young and carefree. You have a ton of fashionista in you, and you can’t hide it. Of course, there will come a day when you will have to choose between looking good and staying young.
In other words, you will have to choose between looking ‘your age’ and looking fashionable. But it doesn’t have to be a choice like that. Instead, with some simple tips, you can look your best as an older professional or whatever your stage in life is!
Wear What Makes You Feel Good
Your clothes should feel good on you. If they don’t, you probably won’t feel good in them. It’s the first rule of fashion. This is because you are more than just your body. You have your mind, too. And your mental and emotional state can be altered by how you dress.
And, of course, you don’t have to only wear what makes you feel good right now. There are times to experiment, but they should point you towards the best version of yourself. You can also try wearing a few pieces that make you feel good in different ways. For example, you could wear a bomber jacket but pair it with a casual shirt.
Shoes are Everything
Shoes can make or break your outfit. But what role do shoes actually play? They are the things that you put on your feet, sure, but they’re also the foundation of your entire look. Shoes can elevate your fit or make it look like it has ‘no legs,’ making your entire outfit just fall flat.
To make sure your shoes elevate your outfit, you have to know what to look for. First, make sure your shoes are clean. If they’re dirty, you’ll like you don’t care about the rest. Stained shoes make for a stained outfit.
It’s also important to remember how vast the world of shoes has become. It’s not just loafers and dress shoes nowadays. Sneaker culture has permeated many professional environments, meaning you can wear almost anything if it’s deliberate and it looks good.
Take Risks
One of the best ways to look your best is to take risks. This means that you shouldn’t be afraid to try new things. This includes wearing bolder colors and wearing outfits that are a little more rugged than others would.
And, of course, you should also try wearing clothing that’s a little more unconventional than others would. Doing so will help you look stylish without having to try too hard. If something catches your eye, go for it!
As with most things, you don’t want to take too many risks at once. You don’t want to look like a total mess after all. Instead, you should try taking a few risks here and there. Try new accessories or different combinations of things already in your wardrobe. One thing you could try is wearing a pair of rugged boots or lace-up oxfords. This will help you look a little classier or a little more adventurous.
Know your Body and Mindset
It’s a good idea to know how your body feels and what your mindset is like. The interplay between those things can guide your fashion sense as you move on from the trendy focus of your youth.
In order to know how you feel and what your mindset is like, you should try doing a quick self-check. You should start by doing a self-checkup on your body. This will allow you to see if there is anything that you can do to help it feel better. It doesn’t have to be a full physical, but you should be honest with the state of how you look. It can also lead to places of self-improvement if things are bothering you. You could get a new gym membership or visit the Barber Surgeons Guild or find other ways to make you feel the best about yourself.
Next, you should do a self-checkup on your mindset. This will allow you for a better idea of what you’re thinking about so that you know when you need to take a break and relax. Knowing when to let loose is important. Self-care is important to living a healthy lifestyle.
As you can see, each one of these pieces of advice is pretty easy to focus on. But they’re really all you need to do to look your best at any stage in life! Take one at a time, and you’ll feel better than ever.
