For a recent special occasion, I slipped on a brand new floor length blue lace dress from True Decadence. Already feeling floaty and like a modern day princess, I ensured my hair was sleek and straight and applied my make up. This dress made me feel so confident and like I had really made an effort. It got me thinking about how my style has changed, evolved and developed over the years. Five years ago for example, I don’t think I would ever have worn something like this blue dress. But now, I like to think of my style as much more classic and timeless. I also like to stand out with bright colours.
Fashion and style is all about finding what you feel most comfortable in, whilst looking your best. It’s a form of self expression and showing your personality through the clothing you wear. Fashion is also about finding trends you love, styling different outfits and creating outfits using what you already have in your wardrobe. I wanted to share how you can find and develop your individual style when it comes to fashion.
Have fun with your style
If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you will know that I always stress the importance of having fun and enjoying fashion. By this I mean trying new styles and looks, and most importantly, ensuring that you are enjoying it. Wearing this maxi dress for example was definitely something different for me, but I really liked the way it looked. I had lots of compliments when wearing it, even from a lady who was walking past me as we took the photos!
Get some inspiration
If you’re still struggling with your personal style, have a look in fashion magazines, celebrities and even other fashion bloggers. I know I have taken inspiration recently from fashion blogger Lydia Elise Millen, as I absolutely love her style. I also really like Kate Middleton’s classic style. I’m proud to say that I am now someone that people ask for fashion tips and advice on, and that means so much to me that I have become an inspiration to others.
Comfort comes first
As long as you are comfortable and feel amazing in what you are wearing, you’re winning. Always plan ahead to ensure you’re not in those pair of uncomfortable heels for the whole day. If it’s likely to rain later in the day, take a jacket with you just in case. I always like to plan ahead and even keep a small umbrella with me at all times. In England, you never know when it might rain!
