Fashion For Women – How to Find Your Personal Style
Finding your personal style takes time, but by following certain rules it can also save time and reduce closet clutter.
Women of all ages can create their own style through fashion that complements them perfectly, no matter their age. All it takes is finding pieces and color palettes that work for you and finding out which pieces best complement your figure and personality.
1. Flannel Shirts
Flannel shirts are essential fall wardrobe pieces and come at various price points. Higher-end flannels often employ flat-fell seams, which reduce fraying risk by providing greater durability. Popular examples of such clothing are Patagonia’s Fjord Flannel and OR’s Feedback Flannel both available through Amazon Essentials in an array of colors.
Opt for a boxy, oversized style in a loose fit that allows for layering up with tees and sweaters, or select one made of stretchy cotton for light weight springtime layering. Discover styles in classic plaid patterns as well as trendy variations; plus sizes are also available.
2. Button-Up Shirts
White button-down shirts are an essential wardrobe piece. One such Everlane version with can’t-miss cuffs that extend past the wrist has quickly become one of our fan favorites, according to style coach Kim Hancher. You’ll find this versatile item layering under sweaters during cold months or worn open over bathing suits on vacation!
Breezy linen and satin fabrics provide another polished option without creasing as much (and may even be machine washable!). Look for cropped silhouettes with loose-fitting sleeves (such as this style from Something Navy). Additionally, some styles feature additional tabs for keeping sleeves in place when rolling up and keeping them looking their best!
3. Sweaters
Women’s sweaters have become fall and winter wardrobe essentials that never go out of style. Thin or chunky, thin cotton or thick wool varieties offer spring transitional styling or provide warmth in colder months; lightweight cotton offers spring transitional layering while thick wool provides warmth during colder weather months.
Sustainable fashion shoppers looking for eco-friendly fashion should turn their attention towards merino wool, an eco-friendly material that outshines cotton in durability, pill resistance, softness against skin contact and overall minimalist appeal. Try Toteme’s wool blend striped turtleneck for minimalist-minded pieces featuring ottoman stitch details in its cuff and hem and made using materials certified as free from harmful substances OEKO-TEX certified materials that ensure safe wearing conditions.
4. Boots
Boots for women are an indispensable staple in any wardrobe, offering easy dress up or down versatility depending on the season and pair beautifully with dresses. Short Chelsea and combat boots have seen an uptick in popularity because of their durability and stylish appearance.
Shearling-lined boots provide warmth in colder weather and create an inviting ambience. Choose thigh-high or knee-length styles, such as those from Thigh High Boot Company, to protect your legs from the elements and keep you toasty warm and protected from the elements. Pair your boots with casual wear such as jeans and sweater dress for a laid-back aesthetic; Derby shoes also work great to give off that country club feel!
5. Ties
Neckties have long been an indispensable fashion piece for women. Not only can they add an elegant and formal edge to any ensemble, but there’s no doubt they add a pop of color – particularly wine red ties which add an eye-catching splash. Ideal for adding vibrancy to an ensemble as well as for use with suits!
Your tie can add the perfect finishing touch to any look – from jeans and jackets to off-the-shoulder midi dresses and tailored blazers or sleek trousers. A tie makes an impressive fashion statement when worn correctly! A houndstooth tie stands out as an eye-catching fall trend and pairs nicely with tailored pieces or sleek trousers.
6. Watches
Since centuries past, high-end watches have traditionally been purchased and worn mainly by men; however, that trend is slowly changing with women becoming major buyers, collectors, and brand ambassadors for luxury timepieces.
Given that gender binary is shifting and large watches with 45mm+ cases are increasingly seen as outdated, many women are opting for smaller timepieces like this Glashutte Lady Serenade with its blue mother-of-pearl dial that stands out.
Zenith Defy Midnight is another beautiful yet practical watch. Featuring a tonneau-shaped stainless steel case with gradient blue dial that symbolizes stars in the night sky, and powered by self-winding Elite caliber 670 movement, this piece stands out.
