The beginning of a year is the perfect time to start thinking about those New Year resolution ideas. If you need a little inspiration for your style resolutions, check out our 5 achievable ideas that may be worth adopting as your own.
# 1. I will wear what makes me feel my best
The clothes that we wear have a direct effect on our wellbeing. While some outfits make us feel awesome, others can render us uncertain. This year, concentrate on finding a look that makes you feel your best and gives you a sense of confidence to take on your day.
Wearing what makes you feel your best means figuring out what clothes you look good in and vice versa. Start by putting together some outfits from the clothes that you already have. If you need some inspiration, get ideas from Pinterest or Instagram. You can ask your friend to help you in the process but ultimately you are the best judge of what makes you feel confident and fabulous.
# 2. I will wear more colour
Whereas colour trends in the past few years tended to lean into comfort and minimalism, the 2022 will bring bolder and brighter looks.
Wearing colours doesn’t come easily for everyone but there is a place in every wardrobe for something a bit bolder. If you aren’t used to yourself in colour, it is okay to start slowly. Experiment with pastel tones that look beautiful without being overpowering and loud. Another good way to get used to more colour is to add a pop of it with a scarf, a handbag, or shoes.
Incorporating colour into your outfits brightens your mood and brings delight to those around you.
# 3. I will buy less, but I’ll buy better
True style is not in owning more things but in having the right items that fit and flatter. All too often, we buy clothes that follow the latest trends but that we only wear once or twice and then forget in the backs of our closets. At the end of the day such purchases don’t really benefit us or our style.
Now is the time to focus on quality and timeless design. Put in a little extra cash for high quality basics, like a classic white shirt or a sharp suit. Buying essential items of premium quality will help you to create a wardrobe that exudes sophistication and charm.
# 4. I will dress for the body I have
It’s common to want to make changes to your body. Some would like to lose weight, others to gain it but no matter what your goals are for your future body, you need to dress for the body you have right now.
The clothes that you buy should fit you well. Buying smaller sizes to accommodate weight loss will end up in an unpolished appearance on your current body.
# 5. I will dress for success
Dressing for success is more than just a cliche. Wearing nice clothes in the office impacts the way people perceive you but also affects how well you perform at your job, how confident you are feeling, and how you perceive yourself and your abilities.
Getting dressed for the office does not mean that you have to leave your personal style behind just to look professional. There is no universal uniform. It is enough to invest in quality clothing that fits you perfectly, looks fabulous and feels comfortable.
