1. Don't underestimate the power of tailoring. Your world of possibilities will be opened up if you go into shopping knowing that not everything fits perfectly off the rack. Shirt seems too long? Get it shortened. The cute flowy top is too flowy? Have it taken in on the sides...the possibilites are endless with good tailoring!
2. Do mix together at least three colors with every outfit. Be creative; mix together a pretty print with two other colors. Wear it confidently!
3. Don't be afraid to be creative and wear something outside of your usual outfits.
4. Do make sure your high heels are always in good shape. There's nothing worse than the sound of the clicking of an unhealthy heel.
5. Don't let your outfits look like you're trying too hard. Your outfits should seem effortlessly chic.
6. Do accessorize, accessorize, accessorize! A cute striped shirt and pencil skirt is complete with a jewel toned bib necklace. A statement piece will pull together any outfit.
7. Do shop in your own closet. It isn't necessary to go shopping that often. With the proper closet essentials (see "Every Girl's Closet Essentials" link) you'll be able to create many different outfit combinations.
8. Do spend some time at least once a week to plan your outfits for the next few days. This will save you time and stress every morning.
9. Don't feel like you have to go out and buy all the latest trends. Classic pieces will last longer in your closet and will be worth the money compared to a trend that quickly goes out of style.
10. Do invest in quality pieces; over the long run you'll spend less.
