Following up on our recent post featuring timeless fashion pieces, we figured sharing some styling tips and fashion advice on effortlessly achieving that timeless look should follow. As we have mentioned in our previous article, often, style tips highlight the importance of styling rather than owning particular items. Hence, most of the best fashion tips are about making different things work together rather than fostering a consumerist culture and throwaway fashion by acquiring more things.

Other than that, what is supposed to be an exciting activity and a form of self-expression is often turned into a tiresome, lengthy procedure robbing our precious time. A poll by Marks & Spencer found that the average woman will spend 17 minutes every morning just rifling through her wardrobe to find what to wear to work. That’s 6 months of women’s working years that could potentially be allocated to pursuing more worthy activities. This is where style tips come in handy—to help us save our precious time, save money, be more sustainable, always look well put-together, and feel comfortable in our own skins. Ultimately, style tips for women (though they could also be employed by men) should make picking an outfit a pleasure, or at least not a source of stress or a primary reason for being late. Fashion tips and style advice can help you feel good in the clothes you wear without having to browse through every fashion blog, keep up with the latest trends, spend a fortune, or shed extra weight.

Below, we’ve compiled a list of fashion style tips that will hopefully inspire you to rethink your shopping decisions and take a better look at your current wardrobe and the pieces you have in it. As always, if you agree with the tip or find it beneficial, give it an upvote. Also, if you have any other style or fashion tips for women (or men) that weren’t mentioned in the list, please share those in the comments. And to quote one of our favorite fashion quotes by beloved fashion icon Blake Lively, remember that “the most beautiful thing a woman can wear is confidence.”

Buy And Wear Timeless Pieces

Man wearing brown jacket and gray pants

Fancy, elaborate, colorful clothing attracts attention but is often transient regarding fashion trends. Also, it might be challenging to style and combine imaginative cuts and patterns into more than just a few outfits. Instead, choose timeless fashion pieces you can easily style and mix with a variety of clothing regardless of what is 'in' and 'hot' at the moment.

Let One Color Pop At A Time

Woman standing and wearing red jacket

You have probably heard of the three-color rule, suggesting not to combine more than three colors in your outfit at a time. Although rules are meant to be broken, it’s generally a good piece of advice. For that chic, put-together look with a pop of color, the best way to go about it is to pick two neutrals and one bright color.

Show Off Your Personality

Fashion is one of the loudest ways to express yourself. By focusing on what suits and fits you well, you may let your individuality come through in the things you wear. Avoid wearing anything that makes you feel uncomfortable or constrained, and always go for clothing that allows your inner light to shine.

Don’t Buy Something For Just One Occasion

We're all guilty of it. A wedding, a birthday celebration.  Even though we may love the piece we purchased, it seldom receives more than one use. Try to have a few dressier pieces in your closet that can be worn for various occasions. You can wear a piece repeatedly if you choose something simple and more classic than trend-driven. With the right accessories, it will never feel like the same outfit.

Vertical Stripes Are Superior To Horizontal Ones

Vertical lines in clothes create an illusion of a taller and slimmer figure. That is because our eyes follow the lines moving up and down, making the woman’s figure appear longer and slimmer. It’s the best option out of the two, but do what works for you.
