The Street Style is a first person witness that styling errors are much more common than it seems and that, in general, the border between success and failure (stylistic) is sometimes very, very diffuse.Also that it is very personal: it is inevitable to remember, for example, the clash between Sylvie and Emily in Emily in Paris for all purposes, both of wardrobe and behavior, and how Sylvie defines it as' La Plouc '(something like' palette').Despite the simple exercise that supposes (a priori) dress every day, there are certain details and combinations of garments, accessories and colors that can give an unwanted appearance.
Not everyone has the sense of such acute style, much less, he was born being a stylist, so this type of mistakes are around the corner for everyone.In this sense, we wanted to collect some of the stylism errors that can ruin any look in a moment.And in most cases, the secret lies in balance and in making an exercise of common sense.
It may seem very, very obvious.But in the face of the size, the reality is that more than once we get carried away by the number that hangs from the label.With the difference that may be from one store to another, this is sometimes inevitable.A size number does not define us, so in its place we must take into account the garment that favors us and especially with the one that most comfortable we are.This translates in the same way when buying: if a shoe is too large, or squeeze us, or a pants are too tight, better to leave it on your shelf, no matter how much we liked.
As Marina Valera said on a two017 theme, betting on the Oversize does not consist of buying a largest two carvings, but in finding the appropriate piece.The oversize keeps more related to a specific pattern, with wider sisas, a larger length but with its fists in place, when it comes to a jacket.With a basic oversize as a starting point, the stylism error that should be avoided is to include another of the same type in the look: better to bet on a matter of proportions and choose, for example, a sweater or a more tight shirt, Crop Top type typeand a rather small bag.
We know it, sometimes getting the iron can be an arduous task, but for visual effects, few gestures can ruin a styling to such an extent as wearing a shirt or blouse that presents wrinkles everywhere.Although it has been a trend in itself, few outfits are as simple and impeccable as jeans and a shirt that is perfectly ironed.
Transparencies are a double -edged sword at the stylistic level: they can look very good with our basic closet bottom favorites, but they can also ruin them if we combine them with a lingerie that is not adequate.Fasteners with transparent braces that are banished years ago, as well as betting on a bra that is not the appropriate ‘nude’ tone.When in doubt, better opt for a blouse or a dress with transparencies and a beautiful black bra below.
The combination of different prints is an art that can be great, but that can also ruin any look in record time.In view we love to see how flower motifs are mixed with a leopard print or an print animal with a striped garment.The idea is very effective, when this alliances game is dominated.When in doubt, it is preferable to opt for small prints and above all, discreet.And at most, two: better if the stamped garment in question is dark color or more basic tones.An example?Wales paint pants with a marine t -shirt.Or jeans with a sailor striped sweater or a coat with leopard print.
We all know the transformative capacity that the accessories have, but there is a very fine line between triumphing and failing with a style as far as this type of pieces are concerned.The maximum of "less is more" works in this aspect as a mantra that we must internalize: it is more convenient to include only the appropriate ones, and in a harmonious way.If the shoes are the protagonists of the look, better leave the bag in a secondary position and bet on one more discreet.The same moves when we include jewels as XL earrings or a striking necklace: better give them a complete prominence leaving the rest of the outfit in the background.
It is difficult not to chop in autumn or spring trends that are most carried, but to include them in the closet it is necessary to implement common sense.If they take, for example, plated pants and also the sequins and glitters, theirs would be a balance to compensate for the festive character of both, such as adding an always successful pledge of point.In addition, it is also convenient to do a self -knowledge exercise: are you really going to buy a garment, no matter how much it takes, if you do not go with your personality?Those that most adapt to our style are the ones that we will best defend at a stylistic level.
One of the style standards that marked that not written Code Dress for decades and that represents a lifetime rule that must be broken: coordinating bag and shoes in the same color is a outdated exercise that prioritizes, instead, chromatic alliancesmore interesting that invite you to have fun experiencing.
Another of the styling tricks that arrives to stay but with which you have to be very careful: layer overlap is a stylistic solution of the most effective when it is known to handle, but that can lead us to swampy territory.Because any layering is not worth.As Cecilia Casero commented a few years ago, it is better to bet on neutral tones, to minimize any possible styling error.For example, marine blue, gray and beiges usually work quite well.
We are aware of the evolution of the fashions themselves: if a few years ago the silent luxury prevailed that led to wear brand garments in a very discreet way, the logomania has returned in recent seasons to make a hole on the catwalk and in theStreet Style.We have returned to the bureau of the 80s when each of the garments showed the store in which it had been bought.But for practical purposes, abusing Logos is a beginner's mistake: better in small doses (such as Broches), or at least, in smarter combinations, such as leaving prominence to a coat or a few stockings.
It is a matter of proportions and again, of logic: what does it have to carry a bag too small in the day, when we do not have everything we will need throughout the day?In the same vein, a colossal bag for the night can also ruin a sophisticated styling: better to bet on one of the precise size in which we carry the essential.
