STYLE TALK - HOW TO LOOK LIKE A MILLION BUCKS

Believe it or not, looking like a million bucks without actually spending a million bucks is just about to get a whole lot easier……………….if you continue reading this post. With a few sartorial hacks up your sleeves, you can dress and feel like a million bucks any day, everyday !

1) PAY HEED TO YOUR OUTFIT– an outfit planned ahead of time always goes a long way in making you feel confident. Take ten minutes, pull out the pieces you need, iron them, lay them flat on your bed or hang them by a hanger, not only will it be your ticket to feeling million bucks, but also save you time when getting ready. Pay close attention to the fitting of the clothing when shopping. Take it to a seamstress, if something feels off and you think having a professional touch that up will give it the fit and feel- go for it, it will be worth the paint and money. A few bucks towards tailoring now will count in the long run. Delicate feminine fabrics and details like lace and embellishments also give that luxe feel to your look.

2) TAKE TIME TO DO YOUR HAIR AND MAKEUP– this often tends to be the last thing on your mind, but believe me a freshly done hair and a little makeup are a huge determinant in feeling like a million bucks. Personally for me red lips and straight flat-ironed hair does the trick. If wavy hair is your jam, then go for it.

3) PAY EXTRA ATTENTION TO YOUR FOOTWEAR AND ACCESSORIES– Remember to accessorize chic. I am very particular when it comes to accessorizing my outfits. I try to keep it minimal, with a thin strand of necklace, a couple rings and a bracelet if my wrist is showing. I have a few go-to piece that I always reach out for. Don’t overload your jewelry to look like a mobile jewelry store. Keep it classy. Talking about shoes nothing is more classy and chic than a pair of pumps. I have so many pairs of shoes but I have just been rotating between the few pairs of pumps that I collected over the last couple years. To take your pumps-game to the next level look out for details like studs and unconventional colors. Not only do they look snazzy, they look expensive as well. Shop my purple pumps right HERE.

4) SALE STALK– the above three were more about the physical aspect, but this one is the materialistic aspect in feeling and looking like a million bucks. A couple of things I would recommend investing in is designer bags and statement coats. Visit your local designer stores, make friends with the sales rep, get on their newsletter and check back during sale periods. You are sure to snag a deal on the bag or jacket you had been stalking. Your job doesn’t end here, make sure you take care of your investment. Always keep it in the dust bag, wipe it clean after every use, nurture it like a baby.

5) TAKE CUES FROM YOUR FAVORITE MEDIA PERSONALITY– in the world of social-media there is no harm in copying your favorite celebs…..but just sometimes. Watch how they dress, how they walk, how they talk and little details that make them this sought-after.

A blend of the above and a little of your own personality will make surely a deadly you. Whats say?
