Read through through these fashion don'ts if you're unsure of an outfit, or just need some advice!
Fashion Don'ts:
Don't match patterns.
Unlike what's cool in first grade were you wear everything plaid, everything polkadot, everting strips, it's not cool when you're a teenager. What I'm saying is if you have a red plaid shirt, don't wear red plaid shoes with it. Instead wear red shoes. If you have a pink polkadot shirt, don't match a pink polka dot purse with it. Match a pink, white, or even gold purse with it! Don't wear the same pattern skirt as you headband. Or the same pattern hat as jacket.
Don't wear jean on jean.
This is personally a look that I don't like! It does not look very flattering or stylish when a jean jacket is worn with jeans. The only way to wear this is by wearing a jean jacket with colored jeans. A jean jacket is also fine with a dress, skirt, colored shorts or colored jeans. But jean jackets with jeans are a definite don't. If a light, practically non jean blouse is worn with dark jeans, it's ok. Just don't layer jeans!
Don't mix the naturals.
Wearing a nude colored top with a light brown jacket and dark brown jeans and a gray/nude bag is totally non fashionable. Once you have one natural color mixed in your outfit, that's all you need! Mixing natural colors such as gray, white, nude, gold, light brown, dark brown, bronze, and skin color looks totally boring, dull, and NON FASHIONABLE. Defiantly a look you do not want to visit.
Don't wear leggings with a shirt.
Leggings are made to go underneath a dress or a skirt. Not to be worn as pants! Leggings should not be worn with anything that does not cover you bottom. Running leggings can be worn with anything sporty as long as they are thick enough to a point were you can't she underpants lines...
Don't mix black & navy.
These three colors are each very similar witch is why we do not wear them all together. Example: You have a cute navy jacket. You want to wear it with your outfit but you have no matching shoes, so you just slip on some black sandals hoping they will pass as looking navy. Everyone can tell that you are wearing black sandals with a navy outfit. Now this is just personal reference, but I personally do not like black and navy together.
Don't wear food t-shirts.
The cute t-shirts you get from Justice that have food on them and say funny things are cute for first and second graders. But now that you wanna start looking fashionable, it's time to put those t-shirts away. Now I personally never liked those types of t-shirts, but if they're your style wear them all day long! This is just a personal trend I never had a thing for.
Don't mix silver and gold.
Silver and gold are each such beautiful colors, they do not deserve to be mixed together! It's different if you get a ring that has both silver stones on it and gold stones on it, but you can't wear a gold necklace with it and a silver bracelet on it. Instead wear a gold necklace and a gold bracelet with it. Heres another example: You have gold sequins on your top, therefor wear gold jewelry. You have a silver bow in your hair, therefor wear silver jewelry. You have a gold handbag, therefor wear gold gold jewelry and a gold hair bow. You have silver beading on your jeans, therefor wear a silver purse and silver jewelry.
Don't wear something unflattering to your body.
To wear something that flatters your body is not wearing something un-modest. For example: If you're a really thin girl, don't wear baggy pants. Wear something more tight on your legs so that it doesn't make you look an unhealthy skinny or like you can't find anything that fits. If you are more of a chubby one, don't wear a tight shirt. This shows every one of your curves and exactly the shape and size of your body. Wear something a little loser that is a bit tight at the waist... but not too tight!
Don't wear tennis shoes with jeans.
I personally do not like this look. If you are enjoy wearing tennis shoes with jeans then go for it! But if you are looking for something a little more sophisticated and grown up I'd step away from this look.
Don't wear socks that show.
When you're going running and wear your tennis shoes, make sure you can't see you socks above them! If you can only see a little brim of white or even colored socks above your tennis shoes is fine. But when you can see almost ankle high socks, it gives a little bit of a nerdy look. This is all just personal reference though people! If this look is appealing to you go for it!
