Finding Your Personal Style
Find how to reach your full potential and achieve personal style with BecomingForYou.
Personal style is frequently assumed to be reserved for those who are fashion-conscious. But clothing impacts everyone. Every day, you get out of bed and put on clothing to wear for the rest of the day, so make sure it’s working for you. Finding your distinctive style might help you tune out the glamour of the fast-paced everyday life and feel at ease in your own skin. Your personal style is a unique blend of fashion categories (such as classic, trendy, and boho) that encapsulates what you do, who you are, and what you enjoy.
It’s easy to lose yourself and your sense of personal style in a world of trends and fast fashion: it’s simple to lose yourself and your sense of personal style. But personal style has many positive effects other than looking your best. Dressing right can make you feel secure. High-quality, well-tailored clothing can help you feel more confident and powerful, allowing you to take on challenges at work and in your personal life. Self-esteem and self-efficacy are critical factors in assessing your own value, and they serve as markers of your confidence in your capacity to attain your objectives. Furthermore, having a higher level of self-perception might lead to better outcomes while dealing with new situations and engaging with people.
“Simply changing the way you dress can have a drastic impact on how you think about yourself.” According to Chloe Levin's research based on enclothed cognition effect, founded by psychologists Hajo Adams and Adam Galinsky.
It’s crucial to understand the difference between fashion and style before you can establish your own sense of style. The clothes, accessories, and shoes that you wear make up fashion but personal style is what you make of them. Your personal style is a manifestation of who you are. Your sense of style is something that can be developed. But how do you do it? Finding your personal style is just another journey to self-discovery and self-expression. It takes time and patience, but it can be liberating and enjoyable.
So, where should you begin? BecomingForYou is a great place to start because we will lead you through the most useful tips and tricks. It is critical to understand not just the fundamental rules of style, but also to be able to adapt. Here are some easy-to-follow, practical guidelines for playing with your particular style and creating a classic fashion moment.
Inspiration.
The easiest method to start building your personal style is to keep track of the outfits you lean toward. It’ll be much easier to narrow down your preferences from there. Look for outside inspiration, identify trends in your own closet, and keep track of which outfits or accessories make you feel confident and comfortable.
Look to someone you admire. It’s critical that you sit down and think about which fashion figures or celebrities you actually appreciate while on your fashion journey. Is there a well-known figure who has consistently delivered unforgettable looks? Have you ever bookmarked or favourited a celebrity’s street style? Identifying these styles is the first and most important step.
Looking out into the world and observing what sticks and what doesn’t can help you learn more about yourself. You can start to figure out what works for you by looking at street style, friends, movies, history, and more.
Trends can still be sources of inspiration if you don’t follow them blindly! Others have produced fantastic ensembles, and they continue to do so, but not every aspect of an outfit will work for you. We may narrow in on what particularly makes sense for our clothing by drawing inspiration from the world around us.
Building confidence
Now that you’ve concocted your ideal outfit and brought it down to earth, it’s important to be confident in your own personal style. Nothing will be able to stop you once you’ve found the proper products and a style that you like. Lean into the things that you like and that you’ve concluded are useful in your life. Allow your confidence to grow each time you discover that your style is unique to you and not a carbon duplicate of someone else’s. We’ve all been lost in a sea of similarities, and it’s been demonstrated that having more options causes us more worry than having fewer options. Allow yourself to be who you are!
Getting creative
Get creative as the final step in developing your distinctive style. There is room for exploration when you’ve found what works for you and makes you feel distinctive. Finding your particular style doesn’t mean your clothing is stuck in the past and will never change! As humans, we are constantly changing, and our style will follow suit.
Accentuate your best features
What is it about you that people always compliment? You can start to really accentuate your best qualities once you’ve gradually developed your style. Maybe people always complement your long legs, so you start investing in some beautiful skirts to draw attention to them. Alternatively, if everyone compliments your small waist, you should start wearing outfits that heighten that feature
Accessorize
The key is in the details. Adding something extra like simple jewellery or a scarf take completely change your look.
Here are basic tips and tricks for creating a personal style with BecomingForYou.
1. Basic staple
Invest in high-quality clothing and essentials such as pants, shoes, and a T-shirt. The idea is to choose pieces that can be easily combined with your existing wardrobe or accessories.
2. Don’t hop onto the trend too fast.
Be picky about what you want to buy. This will streamline your style and avoid cluttering your wardrobe.
3.Choose a colour.
Monochrome outfits look good on everyone. Try dressing in different shades of one colour by matching your outfit from head to toe.
4. Functional and fashionable shoes
Quality footwear is one of those purchases where saving money and effort isn’t worth it–in the long run, a more expensive pair of shoes will be a safer choice. They must be of good quality and comfy, and you must also consider the style. This is one of the few pieces of clothing that must be both functional and fashionable.
5. Snap the good ones.
It's easy to find inspiration everywhere. Look beyond the brand or who is wearing it and focus on the outfit. Make a board on Pinterest or save a collection on Instagram full of your favourite look. You can also use this for when you have nothing to wear.
6. Trust your instincts
Personal style is not just about the clothes, it’s you. If you are not happy with your look, you can always change it. Align your clothes and accessories with the seasons and embrace your own identity.
