A style how-to.
First, it is important to look in your closet and decipher which items you love, which ones you barely wear and or hate.
Look at the items that you love and ask yourself why. Is it the way it matches with your skin tone or the way it makes your eyes pop? Whatever the answer is, it is now a new staple piece in your wardrobe.
Now, look at the items you hate and ask yourself why.
There are a couple of options for these items;
Find ways to style them that make you like how it looks
Consider “flipping” the item (Flipping- customizing the item into a style you admire, dyeing it a different color, resewing it into a different style, etc.),
Selling it or donating to a thrift shop
The options go on but let’s get into the basics of becoming a style icon.
The steps above set you up to this point, finding the essentials of your wardrobe. Find the neutral pieces in your closet and pair them with the more bold and loud pieces…is the regular advice someone would give you. This advice is valid, but we’re here to become AN ICON. Style icons wear whatever they want. To become one honestly takes a huge level of confidence. Being able to step out of the house in whatever you’re wearing and making it look good. Think of some different style icons over the years; Björk, Harry Styles, Dennis Rodman, etc. Did they ever conform to society’s rules for fashion? (The answer is no)
Since everyone’s closet looks different, I can’t exactly tell you which pieces to pair together, so it’s up to you. What do YOU think looks good together? What do YOU want to wear today? Honestly seems cliche, but it’s all in your hands, so what do you choose?
Stay iconic bb
love yours, Farah ♡
