To ask how some people making looking so normal so good?

[Upsetbetty]

I’m genuinely baffled, yesterday at work one of the women came in and I was blown away as I am most days. It was Friday so she was dressed a bit more casual. She only had on a pair of mom jeans, and a plain crewneck jumper, but it was to put togetherness that I couldn’t get over. Underneath her jumper, she had a long white sleeve top and the neck of the top could JUST be seen popping up from her jumper, she rolled up her jumper sleeves so you could see the white sleeves underneath, she had a pair of Adidas sambas on. It just looked so perfectly put together and thought out yet so simple at the same time. If I tried to emulate that I would look scruffy!! Just how does she do it? Anyone have any insight? I asked her and she told me where she got said items but I supppse it’s the fit that worked so well.

Thanks for all the great tips in this post.

I watched some YouTube layering videos and took notice of tips in this post and made an outfit from clothes I had, layering, adding a belt, showing off cuffs of shirt by folding back cardigan cuffs.

my dd told me today her DH had commented on my new look which I was rather pleased about as I felt I’d completely lost my way with clothes.

One my DC friends mum is like this. Everytime I see her she looks amazing and way more stylish than everyone else in the school playground. I think it is great hair (it looks sort of messy out up but probably she spends some time to achieve that look), good posture and knowing what suits her. She does tend to wear the same sort of thing - trainers, trousers that stop above ankle that I would feel ridiculous in, nice top. Maybe she actually looks in the mirror too check how she looks and how outfit works which I have stopped doing as I am fed up of how old and rubbish I look

There’s the knack of staying looking good throughout the day too. I made the stupid error today of not checking my appearance a couple of hours later. If I had, I would have noticed that my hair needed fluffing up a bit and my mascara had smudged. Frustrating as I was otherwise quite pleased with how I looked.

I’ve come to the conclusion that the people who look best are those who know exactly what suits them, in terms of personality, style, cut, colour etc.
