Fashion tips:
- Stick to medium and dark wash jeans - medium for the day and dark for going out at night. Dark jeans dress up an outfit.
- Don’t spend too much money on trendy clothing because the styles will go out in a year or two. Stores lilke Forever 21 and Delia’s have less expensive trendy clothing.
- Target is now carrying lines by up and coming designers which are on top of the trends and well priced.
- For the trendy items, don’t buy anything you don’t like. There are tons of ways to keep your wardrobe up-to-date while wearing something you like. You also won’t feel badly about an item sitting in your closet and not being worn.
- Skinny jeans are okay as long as they are dark or medium wash and aren’t worn with a slouchy top!
Stores to try:
- Stores like Ralph Lauren, J. Crew, Lilly Pulitzer, American Eagle, Abercrombie, Anthropologie, and Hollister are carrying both preppy and trendy clothing.
- If you’re looking for something less expensive, Aeropostale, Delias, and Old Navy are also trend conscious.
