Forever Stylish Issue 1 June 2017 | Page 4

W e all lead busy lives, and I don't know about you, but spending twenty minutes every morning trying to decide what to wear just doesn't count as effective use of my time. I find that morning closet battle a real damper on my spirits. Pulling one garment after the other out of the closet, only to realise that I have nothing to pair it with in order to create a coherent outfit, just leaves me frustrated, flustered and insecure. There's nothing worse than going through a whole day continually wondering whether what you're wearing looks "alright", or catching a glimpse of yourself in a shop window and cringing, all because you simply didn't have any better outfit choices this morning. Then there's the lingering prospect of having to put all that stuff back in the closet when you get home! This is where knowledge is power: knowing exactly what you can and can't wear, and what not to buy, makes it so much easier to choose an outfit, throw it on, and walk out the door confident that you look great.
