How To Find Your Own Style

The secret to a terrific appearance isn't in keeping up with every passing trend. Having integrity with your own sense of style is paramount. But what if you don't have a sense of your personal style? Finding your personal style takes some time and effort, but it can be accomplished through research, the creation of a "mood board," and some bold fashion moves.

Exactly what does it mean when someone says that you have a certain "style?"

The term "style" is used to describe an individual's preferred method of self-expression, be it through their choice of attire, their choice of words, or their choice of building design. In the fashion industry, "style" is sometimes used as a synonym for "personal style," which refers to an individual's unique way of presenting themselves through their appearance (including their clothes, accessories, hair, and the way they put an ensemble together).

Style is timeless. A person of style may or may not be up-to-date on the latest fashions, but they never compromise their personal taste. Personal style is about developing a sense of self rather than simply absorbing trends.


In 5 Easy Steps, Discover Your Unique Fashion Sense

It takes time to develop your own unique style. Nonetheless, there are methods you can employ to find out which garments best suit you.

Check your own clothes first.

The clothes you have that make you happy are worth thinking about. Tell me about some of your favorite garments and accessories. Take a moment to reflect on the reasons these items make you happy. Note the similarities between the two.


Discover where to draw style motivation from

To find your personal style, look no farther than the people you already know and love. Spend some time on social media and take note of how your friends and favorite celebs wear everything from leggings and crop tops to blazers and turtlenecks for the office. To get some ideas for what to wear, peruse the archives of several blogs written by people whose tastes align with yours.


Make an inspirational fashion board

The creation of a mood board is a fun and effective approach to work on your individual fashion sense. Create a mood board out of your fashion inspiration photos. Your models may all be wearing denim jeans, maxi dresses, and ruffled tops, but your inspiration may be all over the place; this suggests that there is an overarching vibe or tone you are aiming for.


Make a simple, versatile wardrobe

Your capsule wardrobe should consist of a small number of versatile pieces that may be combined in endless ways. A little black dress, a denim jacket, some basic tees, and a leather tote are all examples of timeless staples that are easy to mix and match. Some of the following items may already be in your wardrobe: Only use those that make you feel good, and replace the rest with staples that are sure to serve you well.


Don't be afraid to go out and try something new with your personal style

After you've established your capsule wardrobe, it's time to fill it out with one-of-a-kind pieces that reflect your individual sense of style. Because of the potential for trial and error, please keep in mind that switching your mind is fine. Developing a signature look is all about experimenting with different looks to see what works best for you.
