The advice from a fashion magazine.
Will you try to follow it?
Have a good posture. This will help you
look good, and you might feel more
confident.
Don’t try to copy your friends, create
your own style. Add a hat, a scarf, or an
iconic accessory.
Don’t overdo your makeup, hair,
clothes.
Be stylish inside, too. Be elegant,
charming, charismatic, or
mysterious.
Try to mix and match your own
clothes to be fashionable. You will
save a lot of your money with this trick.
Mix and match basic things,
everything must fit your body, and be
high quality.
