How to Decide What to Wear

You know those days when you open your wardrobe and stare blankly for a minute before uttering those heavily repeated words, ‘I need some new clothes’? The dilemma of nothing to wear rears its ugly head often enough that getting dressed can be a nightmare. Why not try some of these methods to help you decide what to wear today…

Follow the Facebook. What is Facebook for if not to judge your friends and scroll through endless pictures of yourself narcissistically? Next time you’re having a flick through, stop on a picture where you’re looking particularly fashionable and copy that outfit. You’ll automatically feel à la mode which will give you a confidence boost as well.  

Ask a friend. Have flatmates who seem to always look amazingly stylish without even trying? Why not ask them if you can raid their wardrobe. Throw in some fashion-y compliments and they’ll be happy to let you have a snoop and borrow the odd item, it’ll be exciting to wear something new and might give you new ideas as to what suits you.

Surf Daily Mail Showbiz. Ever heard of the Showbiz and Gossip section of the Daily Mail website? Apparently the most visited website in the US, it is a haven for pictures of celebrities (and the occasional nobody) looking trendy. Have a good scroll through to see if anything reminds you of any item you own and put that on for the day, you might even feel like a celeb.

Excavation Time. Open your wardrobe and dig in. Find something that you haven’t worn for at least a year and make it work. It’ll be fun to rediscover old items and if you end up looking terrible you can laugh about why you own something so hideous, provides a good conversation starter too.
