subject: Fashion Trends-how To Choose Perfectly Fitting Clothes [print this page] There is nothing more daunting than trying to choose casual wear that fits your body type perfectly. There are so many women out there today who are wearing either clothes that are too big or too small and are not aware of how to rectify this problem. For some women, the only answer is trial and error, while for others there are a few steps that can be followed to help you make sure you are choosing the right piece of clothing for you.
The first and most important step when it comes to choosing perfect fitting casual wear is to take a nice long look at yourself in the mirror. This step is not to judge what you see but instead take an objective look at your curves, where you curve, areas of your body you want to hide and the areas of your body you want to show off. Once you have a good clear picture of your body you can go shopping with a bit more confidence.
A rule that everyone should be aware of is not to wear your clothing too tight. This rule applies to women who are slim and women who are overweight. When you put yourself in fashion pieces that are too tight you may be creating a style you did not intend. This look can be very unflattering and can create problem areas where there really are none just because of how the clothing is bunching your body fat. You want your clothes to fit comfortably. A great rule of thumb for when you are trying on pants of any kind is that you can easily fit 2-3 fingers between the waistline and your body, if you cant do this than you may want to consider a bigger size.
When it comes to choosing a perfectly fitting top, unfortunately there are no clear cut rules. There are so many different styles, cuts and fabrics when it comes to womens fashion tops that it may come down to just trying them on and seeing what works and what doesnt. You want to make sure that the top is big enough that it doesnt look like a crop top if it isnt meant to be but small enough where the rest of your torso fits perfectly within the lines of the shirt. You dont want to have shoulder cuts hanging down by your elbows but if the shirt is too tight you may not be able to move your elbows!
Fashion is all about looking our best and casual clothing this year is making this easier and easier for us. Once you learn what sizes look and fit this best you will have mastered the world of womens fashion, until then trial and error and following a few simple fashion rules may be all it takes to learn what you have been doing wrong all these years. Fashion trends are ever changing but what always remains the same is how we look and feel in the clothes we buy.
