Let us first and foremost clear the air and state that when I say fashion mistakes in this context, I am not talking about wearing an outfit that could land you on a worst-dressed list. Instead, I am talking about habits you refuse to break, fashion clichés you still hold to your chest and little things you’re avoiding or doing that can ruin your personal style.

You Always Buy the Same Size in Clothes: Aunty you should know that sizing usually varies according to the brand, item and country it was made in. So why are you not broadening your scope?
-
You Shop for Instagram: I do not want to assume you’d buy anything simply to post it on the gram but such is the world in which we live. If you buy that bag, will you be able to truly enjoy it without posting on social media? If your answer is No, I refuse to comment on your personality.
-
You Believe Tall Women Shouldn’t Wear Heels: I do not know where you got this silly rule from tbvh. You are probably the kind who thinks a woman shouldn’t draw extra attention to herself. Please let all women who are six feet tall rock their killer heels as they would love.
-
You Think Mixed Prints Are Way Too Busy: Actually, mixed prints can look extremely fresh, and elevate your look from ordinary to street-style ready in no time. Whatever coloured print you choose, add a leopard or camo belt, shoe, bag, blouse, or anything else.
-
You Think Mixing Gold and Silver is a Faux Pas: I used to be on this table so I understand. Being on this table makes you miss out on some killer jewellery trends, like mixed-metal midi rings, delicate layered necklaces.
-
You Think Faux Diamonds Are also a Faux Pas: We all agree that fake designer bags are a huge NO-NO, but fake diamond studs in a reasonable size are a huge YES and that is because faux stones are hard to spot to the untrained eye.
-
You Believe Loose Styles Flatter Plus-Size Women Most: It’s a myth that loose, flowy styles flatter a large bust or a plus-size woman the best. The area just under the bust is a woman’s smallest torso measurement, emphasizing it with a waistband that hits higher than your natural waist will make you look a size smaller.
- You Never Get Anything Tailored: This is undoubtedly one of the biggest fashion mistakes a person can make and I really do not know why you refuse to slim fit your cloth when needed. Having a tailor tuck in a garment or adjust the length can be the difference between looking just okay and looking great.
- You Think Sneakers Are Only for the Gym: Unless you are living in the ’90s, I do not know why you think this. As recent trends have proven, the right pair of sneakers can be worn with anything including dresses.
-
You Think Sexy Means Showing Tons of Skin: I could not resist adding this because a couple of women actually think this. If you truly believe that sexy means dressing half naked, you’re doing yourself and your style an enormous disservice. You can love your body and still show it off in ways that are truly sexy, as opposed to flashy.
