      Dressing up is interesting but have you ever wondered why sometimes it just isn't adding up? Why did your friend’s clothes look great but something is missing? Well, something might have been missing or something wasn’t adding up. Sometimes we just have to know ourselves well enough then we will know what is missing and what is not. Once you get what colour or style works best for you there is no going back.

        Most of us do not even know we all have body types. Body types are based on our skeletal frame and our body composition. When you know your body type solves about 50% of the question of what fits you. We have the inverted triangle, hourglass, rectangle, pear, and apple. In the inverted triangle body shapes, the waist, and legs are smaller than the bust and shoulders width. The hourglass shape looks like an hourglass the waist is curved and that accentuates the wider bust and hips. The rectangle shape has a similar bust, waist, hip, and shoulder width. The pear shape has the hips are wider than that of the bust. Lastly, the apple shape has the waist, bust, hip, and shoulder width look similar.

        A lady with an inverted triangle shape should wear clothes that highlight the lower half of her body and try to wear nude shoes that will make her legs look longer. If you have an hourglass shape, wear a cloth that highlights your tiny waist. A rectangle shape, needs you to put in clothes that make you look like you have an hourglass shape. A pear shape needs you to wear cloth that highlights your arms, back, shoulders waist, and outer shape. Lastly, if you have an apple body shape, add sharp lines to your total appearance so that your belly will look slimmer.

Another feature to look out for when searching for dresses that suit the body type is the size. Sizes vary and are named according to countries. The UK size is different from the US size, so we must inquire about the type of size before going for any dress to avoid extremely tight or free dresses.

    Each body shape looks pretty and wonderful, every lady looks different in their ways, faces do not look completely alike and every other part of us looks different from the next lady but they are beautiful all the same. Know what works for your body type to get the most desired dressing.

    Apart from knowing your body type and size, you should also know the colour wheel. It is not all colour combinations that go well with each other. You have to know how well to mix colours so that you look lovely every single time. The colour wheel allows you to know what cloth matches your skin tone, how to mix colours, how to balance out colours etc. So you must know how the colour wheel works.

     The best fashion tip you can ever hear of is that you should be confident. When are dressed in a nice outfit that is so eye-catching if you move with less confidence it will be a little hard to see how beautiful you look. Even people who dress in rags but wear them with raw confidence are said to look beautiful and their rags might be added to a fashion show. The way you carry yourself also adds that last sprinkle of you looking “all right” it totals your look.

     Extra tips that might be useful to complete your look, is knowing the right bra to wear, don’t just buy any clothing because it looks good consider your body shape and how it will look on you. Know when to tuck it all in by the side or in front. We are also in a digital era if you ever get stuck you can Google what not to wear and what to wear.
