Reasons To Get a New Look

Confidence

You are excited not just to see yourself with a different view but also to see how other people react.

Experimentation

It would be best never to stick with the same look every year. You might not realize it, but these small changes can excite your life. Besides, you’ll never find your perfect look if you don’t experiment. Try out different colors or wardrobe pieces daily and see how they make you feel. With this trial and error, you might find a perfect, top-to-down look.

Personality Change  

Yes, what you wear and how you dress affect your personality. A red dress makes you feel fiery, or a yellow dress might make you happier. When you’re looking for a mood change spic up your attire to see the results!

5 Ways to Switch Up Your Look

Hairstyle

Do you like to wear your hair down? Maybe you like it tied up. Do you prefer curls or a simple straight look? Have you had your hair in a high pony all last year? Time to let it down now. 

Social media is always coming out with new trends for you to hop on. Social media influencers always give great tips and tricks for you to look out for. You will even have the fun of following an exciting new trend, but you’ll also be researching to find something new that works great for you.

Makeup

Maybe you’re someone who wears makeup religiously or someone who saves it for a special occasion. Just move away from your daily makeup look and add something exciting. If you’ve used nudes all your life, try out some dark red shades for your lips. Maybe a shimmery eyeliner could be your new statement piece! Either way, it’s a great time to go to the beauty bar and try something new.

Wardrobe

The same clothes don’t look the same on everybody. The same dress may look different on different body types. Similarly, the same colors look different on different body shades. 

Let’s say you have a rectangular body shape. With a rectangular figure, you may benefit from the illusion of a waist. You can create this by wearing belts or loose dresses snitched up at the waist. Avoid long straight jackets because they might look unflattering. 

Accessorize

Accessories are generally the biggest way people try to spice up their look. Maybe it’s a new bag, hat, or even a necklace., and people enjoy having statement pieces that are unique to themselves.

Glasses

So, you have poor eyesight? Now let’s use this disadvantage to your advantage. Did you know the type of glasses you choose can morph your frame or your face? If you have a slim face, you might benefit from cat eyeglasses that can give you the fox eye trend look. You may want to ditch your round glasses if you have a round face to maybe elongate your face somehow!
