5 Tips on How to Find Your Signature Style That’s True to You

Discovering your personal style can be difficult, especially when fashion is constantly changing with new trends. I always find myself scrolling through social media and seeing influencers with super fun styles that I’d love to be able to duplicate.  

There are so many unique styles, but shopping for all of them to achieve the look just isn’t obtainable, and neither is keeping up with every single new trend that comes out!  

Today we see trends go in and out faster than ever before with barely enough time to buy, only to ditch it when nobody's wearing it anymore a month later.  

Everyone deserves to feel confident in their clothing choices and have the clothes in their closet actually work together. Keep reading to see the 5 style tips we’ve came up with to help you nail down your signature look that is true to you and what you love! 

Find Your Inspiration 

Whether you are scrolling through the gram, pinning on Pinterest, or browsing your favorite fashion blog AKA Excluded, finding your inspiration pics are important! First make sure you absolutely can see yourself wearing it , second make sure it’s something obtainable in your price range, and finally pick the clothing pieces from each outfit you’d love to have in your closet. Mixing and matching from your fav styles will help create your signature style.

Don’t Underestimate the Power of Accessorizing  

If it’s one thing I’ve learned in the past year it’s that accessories can complete an entire outfit. The most commonly complimented piece when I go out is always a bag or jewelry so yes, people do notice! 

 

It’s Time for That Dreaded Closet Clean Out 

Do not overlook this tip! Getting rid of clothes that no longer suit your newly formed style, or simply pieces you haven’t touched in over a year have got to go! After you’re cleaned out it’s time to get organized. Having an organized clothing space makes putting together outfits so much easier. I’m currently in the middle of my closet remodel so here are a few of my favorite budget friendly closet organizers to help you grow your personal clothing collection.
