Wearing Clothes that Don't Fit You

Squeezing yourself into clothes that don't fit you will never complement you. In fact, you will look stuffed. Always make sure the clothes you wear fit you well and make you feel comfortable. You will look slimmer and more polished this way.

Don't wear Colours that Don't Suit Your Skin Tone

Never mind what the latest fashion is, colour wise. If it doesn't suit you, don't wear it. Your skin tone plays an important part. Cater to it if you want to look your best. Wearing the wrong colour could have you looking jaundiced.

Don't Wear Shoddy Shoes

They let your image down badly. It is a common mistake that women make. They'll dress to the hilt and wear scruffy footwear. Buy a good pair of shoes and maintain them well. Owning one good pair is much better than having half a dozen cheap ones.

Makeup for the Daytime Should be Kept Light

You must know the difference between day and night makeup. Under the lights, makeup shows better. But in daylight, too much makeup looks strange.

Maintain Your Hands

Even if you don't have time for an elaborate manicure, keep your nails clean and well clipped. Chipped nail polish is unacceptable in any fashion circle. Overlong fingernails is not the fashion statement nowadays.

Don't Let Your Slip Show

If you wear different sized dresses, make sure you have an appropriate slip to suit each of them. A slip is not meant to draw attention to itself. It's just there to hide the translucence of your dress.

Don't Let Sweat Stains Show

It is a major let down. If you perspire heavily, you could consider wearing a dress shield. Deodorants and talcum powder under the arm do help to a large extent.

Don't Let the Bra Line Show

Wear bras that fit you well. It shouldn't slip up your back or off your shoulder. It doesn't look good no matter how expensive or exclusive your bra is. Bras are not meant to be shown off.
