Texture is something we forget - it makes outfits look very expensive. You can do a monochromatic outfit, if you're afraid of things that are more colorful and printed, and still create interest.

Matching your hat to your shoe to your bag, or your necklace to your earrings, has a tendency to look dated. Mixing up your accessories adds interest to an outfit, and can make you look much more modern and polished.

Never let a trend get in the way of creating a great outfit for yourself.

All metallics are neutrals. So it is absolutely fine to mix gold and silver; you just want it to look like it has purpose.

Don't let fear or insecurity stop you from trying new things. Believe in yourself. Do what you love. And most importantly, be kind to others, even if you don't like them.

Style can change your look, certainly, but it can also change your life.
