- Wrong colours. Know your skin and hair tone and what colours compliment you. - Wrong size. Be honest when you shop. Wearing the right size clothes in good tailored fitting will make you look wonderful no matter what your size. - Wrinkled clothes. Avoid looking like you haven't made the effort. - Slave to fashion. Don't pick the trends up from the catwalks unless you are sure they will suit your bony shape and colouring. - Wrong underwear. Wear good, well fitting underwear and don't show bra straps or slip hems. - Too short skirts. They make it too easy to flash, keep your modesty intact. - Too many colours. Lots of colours together confuse the eye, choose two or three. - Too many patterns. Again, confusing and messy. Don't be afraid of colour or pattern but less is more. - Too many accessories. Accessories can really make an outfit, but again don't overdo it. - Unmatched shoes. Make sure your shoes match your outfit or stockings. - Stuck in rut. Don't always stick to the one style of clothes, have some fun changing your wardrobe. - Inappropriately dressed. Always dress for the occasion or wear functional clothes depending on the weather or season. - Inappropriate make up. Day make up is lighter than evening and summer is lighter and more sunkissed than winter which is darker and matte. - Scruffy shoes. The best outfit in the world can be ruined with scruffy shoes. - Unmatched fabrics. Dress for the season, heavier knit for winter doesn't match with the lighter sheer summer fabrics. - Uncoordinated wardrobe. Try to create a wardrobe of clothes you can mix and match so that you don't have to worry about putting outfits together. - Same hairstyle. Update your hairstyle, don't get stuck in a rut.
