When it comes to new styles and trends this century, it can sometimes be difficult to determine which fashionable styles are right for your body. You may completely rule out certain looks because you are worried a particular style will not suit you. It is important to have diversity in your closet and therefore, ruling out entire chapters within the fashion book is not a recommended idea. Try to have a little bit of everything. Experiment with different clothing styles and then you can more fully come to love yourself and the clothes you wear and feel completely confident in your choice of apparel.

According to Brittany Brown, a 21-year-old trusted fashion consultant for her friends, "Variety is key." Brown believes that no matter what style you are going for, it is important to not get stuck in one particular look. Although one certain style may seem too "out there" for an individual, it is important to remember each fashion style can be adjusted to fit each person and become a look as distinct as the man or woman wearing it! Owning too many items of one color or cut will limit your look. When you look in your closet, do you see a lot of a particular color or a ton of the same thing, like t-shirts or polo's? A majority of women have several different cuts of black blouses- perhaps it is because black is known for its slimming effects. Regardless of slimming features or not, we should all try to embrace many different styles, colors and cuts of clothing. Having diversity in your wardrobe allows you to come up with new looks daily.

Brown also believes that people need to like who they are and what they wear. "We all have favorite articles of clothing that we wear more than others. This is because we like the way they fit and look," she said. But liking yourself and what you wear should not be applied to items of clothing in the sweats category. Liking who you are in what you wear means feeling spectacular and special in what you adorn. The clothes that fit awkwardly or constantly need adjusting do not often become our favorites. So when shopping, make sure to take a stop in the dressing room and try things on. If something about the way the item fits bothers you, don't buy it! Do not get sucked into buying something and thinking you can change it or your body to make it work. It is easier to find a garment that fits your body appropriately now than buying an item for the future. It is never a good idea to buy a pair of jeans for motivational reasons. Many people keep items of clothes in their closet that serve as constant reminders that "I'll look so good in that when I've dropped just 5 little pounds."

Have you ever thought, "This just isn't me," when it comes to a certain outfit? You are not alone. Brittany Brown has heard many people say this, followed by, "I really like this particular style, but I could never pull it off." Her opinion on this matter is that if you like something it is you- or at least a part of you. Clothes are one of the most observable ways to express your unique personality to others. If you like a style or article of clothing it is because it speaks to some part of you. You can be any style you want as long as you do it with confidence.

If you are considering trying a new style of dress, try it! You never know, you may give it a try, find you like it, feel confident and comfortable about yourself in it, and then that particular style will become you! Your confidence will convince others that it is who you are and over time, you will probably find many other styles that you can embrace and that will become part of you as well. And who knows, maybe you will inspire your friends to be a little bolder and braver in the future with their fashion as well.
