The Golden Rule

With Fall clothes coming in, and summer clothes slowly being filtered out, now is the in-between stage. Everyone creates a mix of outfits from some old & some new. I think now is a good time to reiterate the golden rule of fashion. This rule is that doesn't get followed & then lands lands every celeb on the worst dressed list. I'm talking about the rule of skin. Just how much skin is sexy and what crosses the line for being trashy? There is a really simple rule for any girl to remember that will surely keep them classy.

Think of your body as having two halves. One being from your hips up, and one being from your hips down. When you create your outfit you need to pick ONE part that will be your sexy eye catcher. Let this area be uncovered, but make sure the opposite half stays modest. Lets say you decide you want to flatter your chest, so you wear a sexy low cut top. Then, under no circumstances should you pair that with booty shorts. You only want to show off ONE asset at a time. The same goes for the opposite. If you want to wear a mini dress to show off your legs, then make sure the top is high coverage, so you don't have cleavage all over the place like a playboy bunny. Everything is sexy in moderation. Whichever area you choose to highlight, make sure the opposite is balanced accordingly. If you keep this rule in mind when mixing & matching trends you will always stay classy. It's easy to get carried away when you see the crop tops coming for Fall & you think its okay to wear it with some tiny shorts from summer... except its totally not acceptable. Opt for a pair of denim skinny jeans instead.

Have fun with mixing your things up, and creating looks that are unique. I always say that a sense of personal style and confidence is going to get you further in life then following the norm. Think outside the box & always stay true to yourself.
