One of the biggest misconceptions about fashion is that your clothes need to be brand name. In order to look your best, you don’t have to have anything on that’s name brand because the truth is most people can’t afford name brand garments, especially a closet filled with them. It’s important to keep in mind that just because a particular piece is name brand, that doesn’t mean it’s worth the money. You can wear an entire name brand outfit and still look bad because it’s not styled well. Likewise, you can put together an off brand outfit and look fabulous.
2. That You Should Buy Things You Don’t Love

If you don’t love it when you see it or try it on, chances are you won’t wear it and that makes it a waste of money. Also, there are plenty of stores that are cheaper in price but that sell good quality clothing, shoes and accessories. The best part about these stores is that they also have really good sales, which makes it easier to buy clothes that look like you’ve spent a pretty penny, even if you didn't.

When it comes to fashion, first and foremost, find the style you like the best. If comfort is what you want, then that is what you’ll work with. For instance, a stretchy pair of jeans and a loose top paired with flats and sunglasses will have you feeling comfortable and looking stylish as well. A loose fitted dress and a pair of flats will also do the trick. Now you won’t have any excuses to make about not being comfortable when dressing up for the day.
