    How can I look good without too much effort?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    In the summer, wear shorts and a loose tank with a flannel shirt tied around the waist. This is comfy, stylish, and makes you look good without trying too hard. In the winder, opt for some black or chestnut boots, leggings or flatteringly-cut jeans, and a sweater (big if you are wearing it with leggings; fitted if you wear it with jeans). Opt for nude makeup; natural-looking eyeshadow with a slight shimmer is perfect. Also, wear a light sheen of lip gloss or tinted lip balm.

    What can I wear with a white skirt?

    Community Answer
    White is considered a neutral color, so you can pair any color you like with it. If the skirt is plain, consider pairing it with a fancier shirt. If the skirt is fancy, consider pairing it with a plain shirt. This will keep your outfit balanced, and prevent it from looking too busy. As for shoes, consider heels in white, black, or nude.

    Leggings and jeans are pretty good ideas. Denim shorts and skirts also are good. Shirts and tank tops that fit well are great, too.

    What do you wear if you're on a budget but still want to look cute?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Shop vintage and thrift stores, and look for sales. Look for staple pieces that you can get on sale at the end of a season for wear the next year. Spend your money wisely; don't spend much on fad pieces. Instead, make sure the bulk of your clothing budget goes toward well made, timeless pieces you'll be able to wear for years.
  • Question
    What if I don't have any friends who have a good sense in style? My friends are not very stylish.
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Why does this matter? You can worry about your own fashion sense and still be a good friend to people who have a great deal many other qualities than obsession with their appearance. If you would rather have friends who are only going to think about style sense, then you risk having a friendship based only on how each of you presents yourself to the world. If that's what you're after, then ditch your current friends and find the ones with fashion sense; if not, simply accept that they are who they are and you each have interests that are important to you but not so important that they overshadow the friendships.

    How can I select the right outfits?

    Community Answer
    Consider your complexion first. Then, consider your favourite colours. For example, a girl with a dark hazel complexion will look fabulous in maroon or wine or dark red shades and black. After the colour selection, go for the shape of your body. Always check the appearance and the feel together because you must be sure that you're comfortable as well as looking great.

    What footwear do you think can go with a short yellow jumpsuit?
    Community Answer
    Community Answer
    Since a yellow jumpsuit looks fun and informal, loafers, sandals, or tie-ups will all complement it. Shoes with designs and patterns on them can also go well with it. In fact, sneakers can also add a sporty touch to the jumpsuit. It is up to the wearer and what they feel like doing with their options.

    Social media and fashion don't have to go together. Search online for what's in fashion now if you are allowed to go online, watch TV, look at magazines, check out advertising (including eBay, etc.) and look at people in the street if you're not allowed online. Most popular shops sell fashionable clothes, buy what's new in stores to be fashionable, or, adapt clothes you already have to make them look like the latest fashion trends.

    Community Answer

    Don't be scared to ask. If you are too afraid, just ask for a trusted friend's one (skirts, etc) and wear it when your mom is there. Your mother will ask why. You reply, "Mom, I don't have a skirt. I asked my friend for one. I will give it back again."
