How to Be a Fashion Expert
Being a a fashion expert takes dignity, strength, encouragement, confidence and time. In the long run, being a fashion expert really does pay off.
STEPS
1. First and foremost learn about the history of fashion! There is no point not knowing why your clothes look like what they do and how fashion changed throughout time. Coco Chanel changed how women dress, so it's worth renting the Lifetime movie about her.
2. Keep up on Trends. If you're not keeping up on trends, to fellow fashion experts you'll seem, well, clueless. Read Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle to hear what's in. It's important to know which trends work and which don't though; for example, skinny jeans might flatter you whereas harem pants are just plain ugly. It is important to be a trendsetter, but Anna Wintour's words are worth respecting.
3. First you need to know all of the 'fashion lingo'. This is worth researching, as after all, you want to know what you're talking about. Don't go overboard using words no one's every heard of.
4. Create a totally cool outfit that looks and feels great. Use matching colors and patterns. When you buy your clothes make sure they fit. You don't want them too tight or too baggy. Also make sure they feel good. Don't buy them if they make you itchy or very uncomfortable. Make sure that you feel confident in the clothes. If all the requirments are good then buy it!
5. Create your own fashion journal. Cut out clothes or styles that you like and paste them into your fashion journal. Write down a couple of your favorite outfits and say how you feel in them.
6. Add accessories. From beads to earrings or rings to bracelets. You can add color and spunk to any outfit with accessories. Make sure that they match and they don't feel uncomfortable.
7. Search Through Your Own Closet First. A person never knows what they truly have until they take a good look into their own closet. You may have outfits that can be totally revamped for the sake of fashion. A good tailor would be key in this situation because you have things refitted for the new style you are trying to achieve. What you are looking for could be right under your nose!
8. Invest in classics. It's important to splurge on basics, because if you're going to wear something all the time, it better be high-quality and fit well. A cashmere cardigan, trench coat, string of pearls, pant suit, and little black dress will take you from season to season year to year. You could always find something very similar to it for less money, but it might tear or be itchy and uncomfortable.
9. Wear an outfit totally different then anybody else would. Mix match patterns and colors or maybe try leggings and a long shirt. Whatever it is make sure people would want to follow that trend. But don't make them.
10. Make yourself a reputation as a trendsetter. Shop at the local designer stores; even if you're not that rich, there must be something in there you afford (example: a pair of gloves, sunglasses). Be a devoted client to these boutiques and you will get noticed for your style.
TIPS
*It is very hard to match colors together. The following groups of colors will determine what goes good together:Blues, greens, purples, white, and black go together. Pink, red, orange, yellow, white, and black go together. All the earth tones go great together.

Jeans – Fashionable and Money-Maker?
Fashion – it comes and it goes and it comes back again. Oh well, what I’m sure is that jeans never goes out of fashion. You just change your top and you get a different style. Noticed that, have you? But jeans aren’t easy to come by these days especially designer jeans.
What if you create your own line of jeans? How? It easy, just look for wholesale jeans stores and go for the plainer options. Once you have them in hand, put creative embellishments and you have made yourself some jeans of your own creation. A brilliant business idea, right?
Not only are wholesale jeans fashionable, they are affordable. That’s because you’re buying them in bulk orders and most of the time distributors offers discounts on bulk purchases.
Not only are jeans fashionable, you can have money from it. It’s just a matter of creativity and making the most of what you have.
