How to Choose the Right Clothes for Your Shape and Coloring

Do you know of someone who looks amazing in whatever she wears? Every time you see her, she looks radiant. Her clothes look as if they were specially designed for her. Yet if you look carefully, her features are ordinary. Her figure is average. So how does she look stunning all the time?

That is probably someone who knows exactly what suits her body shape and which colors make her glow. She makes full use of that knowledge by wearing only the clothes in her colors and which are cut to flatter her particular body shape. She won't be caught in an unflattering outfit. Imagine standing in front of your wardrobe, confident that whatever you pull out would make you look fabulous. Imagine going out for lunch, meeting your friends, going clubbing, shopping or traveling and always looking your very best.

That is possible if you put in some effort.

There are 3 things you have to do:
1. Find out exactly what colors flatter you.
2. Evaluate your body shape
3. Revamp your wardrobe

Your Colors

Basically, if you have warm coloring, like golden skin, peach skin, ivory skin or golden brown skin, golden hair, or golden shades or warm brown or warm red shades in your hair, then warm colors like coral, gold and earth tones suit you best. If you have cool coloring as in olive skin, ebony skin or porcelain skin, black hair, black eyes or blue eyes, you would look best in cool colors like blues, purple, pink, black and silver.

Try the exercise in What's my color to identify your best colors. Next, get a measuring tape to find your real figure type. Are your hips and top balanced or are you heavier on top or heavier below? What's my body shape helps you find your real figure type and identifies the clothes that suit your shape.

Make use of the knowledge you've gleaned when you shop for new clothes in the future and soon, you'd be that girl everyone envies.
