Choosing new clothes is fun. But sometimes, we love an item in the store, only to bring it home, hang it in the closet, and never wear it. Or we put it on and realize it simply doesn’t suit us. So, which pieces should you recognize as bad purchases to avoid these mistakes in the future?
The longer I live, the more surprised I am by the countless clothing and accessory options for women. Walking through the city, you see fashionistas whose style is almost beyond words.
Here’s a look at common pitfalls and some of the top clothing brands to help you make better choices on your next shopping trip.
What’s even more surprising is that they’re often not alone but accompanied by their children or husband. Why don’t they say anything? What am I talking about? Here are the details:
Visible Bra Straps
What to do when it’s fashionable to wear backless clothes? Fortunately, in this case, the bra is skin-colored and clean. But what’s the best choice? Opt for a strapless bra or adjust the straps accordingly.
Shoes That Are Too Small
Why is everyone so afraid of making their feet look bigger? Yet, stumbling or squeezing toes doesn’t seem as concerning. Unusual!
These little details can make a big difference, so let’s be mindful of them for a more comfortable and stylish look!
We’ve already mentioned that there should be at least a centimeter between the tip of the shoe and your toes. This rule may have frustrated some, but it’s crucial for safety. Orthopedic specialists also advise selecting shoes accordingly for children. If your toes are nearly poking out as you walk, simply go up a size.
Squeezing into Something
I’ll discuss what to wear with strong legs another time. But if you have wide, sturdy feet, embrace what you’ve got. Don’t squeeze your feet or force them into shoes that are too tight. Choosing the right fit is essential for comfort and health.
Choose shoes designed for wide feet—there are plenty of options now, and they’re often quite stylish. Don’t try to squeeze into narrow shoes.
Underarm and Back Fit
Everyone has some body fat in the underarm area, and for those who are overweight, there may be some on the back as well. To avoid discomfort or bulging, choose clothes that fit well without being too tight in these areas.
Underwear
Avoid wearing white underwear under white clothing. Instead, go for nude or skin-tone options that blend seamlessly. If you prefer colorful underwear, make sure it’s paired with opaque clothing to avoid any visibility. These simple adjustments can help you feel more comfortable and confident in your outfits!
