Fashion 101

I should be awake in another 3hours for my flight,but here I am,trying to share my teeny-weeny knowledge on fashion.I wouldn't have came up with this idea of entry til I realized that some of my colleagues/friends had been asking me bout what to wear,not to wear,great products or how to pull off a look,continuously.Ok,I'm not really an image consultant but if you ladies feel like my suggestions are acceptable,then you are most welcome to apply it on yourself,for the sake of enhancing whichever area that needs to be improved.

I know that there are phrases such as "Affordable Fashion","Beauty on a Budget" and "Steal the Look" which had been created to make people buy craps and junks in order to look absolutely fabulous in their own way.Ladies,listen carefully; it's true that you can look stunning as hell on items that you don't really need to splurge on,but are you truly satisfied deep inside?Expensive branded garments and accessories last til you're no longer that particular size of figure while cheap ones will only last,lets say,for a year or two.There's nothing wrong with buying affordable-no-brand stuffs,but it only applies on your garments as in top and bottom,not including your inner ones.If you're on a budget,you may get yourself any fancy top or bottom that you wish to wear at any cost,but NOT your inner garments,shoes,bags and watches!Splurge on these 4 basic necessities coz  you won't regret it.The reason I'm saying this is bcoz these 4 essentials will effect your image as a WHOLE.Try putting on cheap inner garments without any wires around your bra cup and see what will happen to your precious 'assets' in a year.Walk in those colorful/cute stilettos with no brands around the shopping mall/office in more than 2hours and how do your ankles/toes(especially the tiniest ones)/calves will end up feel like.As for bags/purses and watches,they never failed to complete the whole look of a fashionable girl,and that's the only reason why I was saying that they were something necessary to splurge on.And lastly,never ever wear BLACK,unless you're mourning on someone's death.Light up your life and live it with colors that will cheer your mood all the time!=)
