A Beginner’s Guide To Fashion & Modern Styles

Posted by
Posted on

Fashion is becoming an increasingly popular industry, and many people are slowly becoming interested in it. However, due to its zestful environment, it can appear quite unpredictable and scary to novices. The following seven tips will help you learn how to deal with these constant changes.

  1. Inform Yourself

In order to be able to keep up with the dynamic nature of fashion, you’ll have to remain up-to-date on any new trends and changes related to it. This means getting your information on fashion topic from a variety of sources – magazines, blogs, celebrity statements, etc.

Popular styles change each day, so that piece of clothing that was considered cool just a month ago could very well be outdated by now. It can take up a lot of your daily time, so be prepared to sacrifice some of your daily activities for this.

  1. Filter Through Your Wardrobe

One of the aforementioned sacrifices involves getting rid of your old, out-of-fashion clothing in order to make room for new pieces. Fortunately, this should be a one-time thing, especially if you pay attention to what you’re buying.

First, go through each of your garments and compare them to the current trends. Do they fall into any of the popular categories? If the answer is no, it’s time to get rid of it. You could either put it into the trash or donate it, depending on the state of the clothes.

  1. Renovate Wardrobe With Basics

There are some things that never go out of fashion regardless of the changes. For example, plain white t-shirts or regular denim jeans are something that you’ll always need. Also, certain accessories can improve your looks drastically, even if you aren’t wearing anything overly special. These include watches, jewelry, sunglasses – however, you have to be sure that it goes along with your current outfit.

Once you get a bit more familiar with the trends, you’ll be able to pair these accessories a lot better even with basic clothing.

  1. Find Inspiration Elsewhere

When you’re just beginning to show interest in the fashion industry, there’s no shame in looking up other people more familiar with the trends in order to get ideas from them. Imagination is always the best inspiration since you’ll likely think of unique designs, but that’s usually not developed in beginners. Some of the most popular places to find ideas are fashion models’ social media pages, blogs related to currently trendy styles, etc. Of course, you probably won’t be able to dish out thousands of dollars on garments that celebrities wear, but you can always find cheaper alternatives that look alike.

  1. Take Advantage of Online Shopping

It’s a common occurrence to find a piece of clothing that you like, only to find it unavailable in any of the stores near you. This is where online shopping comes into play. Online catalogs are a lot richer with different choices. However, you have to be careful who you’re buying from, which is where you can take advantage of Spokeo.

Spokeo is a people intelligence tool that utilizes a rich database of information in order to give you an idea of who your seller is. As a Spokeo user, you could run a reverse phone lookup to get their full name, address, social media profiles and much more – all by just entering their phone number. This way, you won’t have to worry about wasting money on poor clothing or even scams.

  1. Add a Personal Touch

Regardless of the source of your inspiration, there’s one thing that you should always do – add your own ideas. Even if you copy the complete look from a certain celebrity, you can make it unique by adding a detail of your choice. What exactly this will vary from person to person, but it mostly refers to accessories. Still, you have to make sure that it amplifies the overall look instead of counteracting it.

  1. Go To Different Sales

Many people avoid visiting second-hand shops or sales due to the belief that the garments found there are of lower value since they were already worn by someone. This couldn’t be farther from the truth. Second-hand sales can be a goldmine, especially if you know what you’re looking for. Also, it’s a good way to explore different styles for cheap. You can buy an item, see if you like it, and then move forward from there.

Maguire Haigh is a marketing manager for Spokeo. He is interested in the latest technology trends, marketing strategies and business development. He also prefers travelling, exploring the world and meeting new people. Maguire has great experience in creating and editing articles on different topics.

How To Choose The Best Hair Accessories For Your Hair Type

Posted by The Fashion Bomb Staff
Posted on

When choosing hair accessories, it can be difficult to know where to start! There are many different types of hair accessory, styles and sizes. This guide will help you to choose which hair accessories will suit your hair type most, based on the thickness, length and texture of your hair.

Thick Hair 

It can be rather challenging when trying to find hair accessories for thick hair and sometimes overwhelming to know what to look for. 

Firstly you need something durable and fairly robust to hold the weight of the hair. Larger sized hair claws and any hair claws that generally have more space inside the clip tend to work best. However, don’t be put off by medium sized hair claws; as long as they have long teeth on them to catch all of the hair these can work just as well. 

If you’re looking to create an effortless elegant updo, a French pleat hair comb is a fantastic way of achieving this look. Combs with wider spacing between the teeth are better suited for thick hair as they allow for larger sections of hair throughout the teeth of the comb. 

Barrette Clips are extremely versatile as you can create many different looks including, a French twist/chignon, a low ponytail and even a half up style. Barrette clips that feature large, arched shaped clasps work most effectively in thicker hair as they have a greater depth inside the clip, therefore, they allow for more space to hold the hair. 

Fine Hair

If you have finer hair try to avoid wearing heavy clips as these can drag on the hair and weigh it down. It is best to opt for smaller, lightweight clips. 

When looking for the perfect hair claw for long, fine hair opt for a clip that is long in length but narrower in width. Try and ensure the teeth of the claws overlap and are very close together to catch all of the fine hairs. 

Trying to get combs to stay put in fine hair can be tricky. The finer your hair, the more teeth you will need to effectively hold it back. Hair combs which have lots of wavy teeth, or teeth which are closely spaced are best for fine hair as there is plenty of grip and less space for the hair to escape. In long hair, go for a longer comb! In shorter hair, or for use as side combs, choose shorter combs. 

Barrettes with less depth, which lay flat against the head, work best in fine hair. However; If you’re wanting to use a barrette clip to create an updo, or if you have long or lots of fine hair, you may need an arched barrette clip for this to hold all of the hair. 

Medium Weight Hair

People with medium weight hair have it much easier as lots of things will suit! Medium size claws and combs are likely to work well, just adjust the size based on the length of your hair. 

Arched barrettes are likely to work best for holding all of the hair, but to hold smaller sections, flat barrettes are preferable.

Combs with alternating straight and wavy teeth are the perfect choice for medium hair, as the wavy teeth will grip the hair in place, whilst the straight teeth allow extra room for lots of hair.

Short Hair

For the ultimate low maintenance style update, headbands are a fabulous choice for short hair. Both narrow and wide headbands compliment most short hair styles. Headscarves are another brilliant alternative to headbands and are great at keeping your locks under control. 

Small hair slides and tiny hair claws are a brilliant way for decorating shorter hair and even adding a touch of sparkle! A useful way of securing heavier hair ornaments in shorter hair is to backcomb a section of the hair, place two kirby grips in a cross formation where you wish to place it and then grip the ornament on to the kirby grips as opposed to the hair to hold it firmly in place.

Straight or Slippery Hair

Many people with straight hair struggle to find hair accessories to stay in their hair as sometimes it can be very silky or slippery. Choosing accessories that work for your hair weight is still important but there are a few things you can do to help them stay securely in place for longer.

When looking for hair claws try and ensure that the claw has overlapping teeth to help grip the hair firmly in place. Again, similar to fine hair, opt for combs with waved teeth, or teeth that are set closer together on the comb to hold it in place. 

You could also think about using texturising spray, mousse or hairspray to add some grip to your hair. Just be sure to apply this before securing your accessory so you don’t damage it! 

Wavy, Curly & Textured Hair

The best hair accessories for wavy, curly and textured hair are similar to thick hair, products with long teeth and lots of space inside.

Chignon pins are an excellent option too as textured hair keeps them in place and you can add as many as you like to secure the hair. Chignon pins with a straight or waved centre both work just as well as each other. 

Pelicans Clips are also a great choice. Look for beak clips with a curve or a larger mechanism to secure the hair in an updo for a more relaxed look.
