Dressing up at home might just be something you do if you’ve got a meeting on Zoom or you’re a bit bored or you’re thinking about what you still wear and what you might want to throw out, but if you like dressing up because you love fashion and style and you enjoy it, that’s different – that’s when you’ll want to make your outfits look really good. So how can you do it? Keep reading for some useful advice.
Wear Clothes That Make You Feel Amazing
Just because no one else is around, that doesn’t mean you have to settle for clothes that either don’t look good or you don’t enjoy wearing – in fact, one of the biggest elements of looking good at home is to wear things that make you feel confident and comfortable.
What does that mean? It means swapping things like worn-out loungewear and joggers for more stylish pieces like matching sets, flowy dresses, or even a great pair of jeans with a comfy knit cardigan or jumper. You don’t have to dress formally unless you want to, but if you make just a little upgrade to what you might normally wear, it can really go a long way.
Pay Attention To Fit And Fabric
Have you ever thought about why some outfits just work better than others? In the end, it usually comes down to fit and fabric, and clothes that are too tight or too baggy can make you feel frumpy, for example – but having the right cut means you can enhance your shape and you’ll get some extra confidence at the same time.
You’ll also want to have soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, linen, and silk because they’ll make you feel luxurious even if you’re just lounging and doing nothing, or you’re at work with no Zoom meetings to take part in.
Use The Right Lighting
Good lighting changes everything – if you’ve got harsh overhead lights, that’s going to make you look and feel less than perfect (they’re just not flattering), but if you’ve got soft, natural light, you’ll instantly look so much better even if the outfit you’re wearing is exactly the same.
Find the best-lit spots in your home – ideally by a window. And if your windows aren’t letting in as much light as you might like, it could be time for a Window Nation window replacement. The fact is that better windows mean better lighting, which means your outfits (and your skin too) will always look fantastic.
Accessorize Properly
Accessories can make even the simplest outfit look intentional and gorgeous, and adding things like gold hoop earrings, a layered necklace, or even a fun hairband can take clothes up to the next level effortlessly.
It’s the scarves, hats, rings, or whatever else suits your style (and the outfit you’re wearing) that can make a huge impact, even though they’re only little details – your look will be totally transformed, and you’ll feel great wearing your outfits whether you’re at home all day or heading out for all to see.
