Dress to Impress: Your Guide for Those 'I Have Nothing to Wear' Days

We've all experienced that moment when we're preparing for a day out or an evening event and we find ourselves indecisive about what to wear. Despite searching through our wardrobe, nothing seems to excite us. This situation can bring about feelings of stress and being overwhelmed. We want to avoid looking sloppy, yet we don't want to appear overdressed either. So, what is the best course of action in such circumstances?

Don't worry, you're not alone!

Many women encounter this issue frequently. Fret not as I am here to offer assistance. Within this blog post I will provide you with suggestions to aid in selecting the ensemble for those times when you find yourself unsure of what to wear.

1. Start with a base layer

First you need to begin by selecting a piece for your outfit. This could be anything, from a pair of jeans or a skirt to a dress. The important thing is to opt for something that's both comfortable and flattering. In case you're unsure, about what to wear you can never go wrong with a black or white top is always a safe bet.

2. Add some accessories

Now that you've managed to slip into that base layer (we've all had our share of wiggling and adjusting to squeeze into those jeans, haven't we?) it's time, for the fun part – accessories! Consider them as the finishing touch, the flair on a delightful sundae. They provide you with the opportunity to add a touch of your personality to your outfit. From sparkling earrings to a scarf that exclaims 'I'm absolutely fabulous' accessories serve as your secret weapon.

3. Choose the right shoes

Oh, the drama of choosing the right shoes! It's a situation we've all faced, standing in front of the shoe rack, wondering what to slip our feet into. If the decision leaves you a little wobbly, never fear. Just reach for those trusty neutral-coloured flats or heels. They're like the loyal friends you can always count on — simple, stylish, and always right. But maybe today feels different. Maybe it's a 'make-a-statement' kind of day. Why not slide into those bright, colourful pumps or whimsical wedges that have been hiding in the back of your closet? They're like your adventurous friend who convinces you to try a salsa dancing class on a whim. With the right shoes, you're not just walking; you're making an entrance. So go ahead, listen to what your feet are saying. They know you best, after all!

4. Consider the occasion

Picking out an outfit is kind of like choosing the right emoji for a text – it's got to match the vibe. Got a job interview? Time to dress to impress with something nice and formal. It's like putting on your 'game face,' but with clothes. Now, if you're just hanging out with friends at a chill party, you can totally go casual. It's like wearing your favourite comfy hoodie and jeans. Dressing right for the moment isn't about following strict fashion rules; it's about finding what feels just right for where you're going. And when you get it just right, it's as awesome as nailing that perfect selfie on the first try!

5. Don't be afraid to experiment

Think of your closet like a big box of crayons, and your outfit as a drawing that's all yours. You can go classic with blues and greens, or maybe today's the day you reach for that sparkly purple one! You don't have to stick with what you always wear; it's fun to mix things up and try new combinations. It's like adding a secret ingredient to your favourite recipe – you never know, you might create something amazing! So grab those clothes and accessories and have fun with them. Your style is yours to play with, and there's no right or wrong way to be you!

Here are some additional tips for choosing the perfect outfit when you just don't know what to wear:

  • Look at your Pinterest boards for inspiration. If you have a Pinterest board dedicated to fashion, you can use it as a source of inspiration for your next outfit.
  • Ask a friend for help. If you're really stuck, ask a friend for help. They might be able to give you some good advice on what to wear.
  • Go shopping with a plan. If you know that you're going to have a hard time choosing an outfit, go shopping with a plan. This means knowing what you're looking for and sticking to your budget.
  • Don't be afraid to buy something new. If you can't find anything in your closet that you like, don't be afraid to buy something new. But make sure that you buy something that you love and that you'll actually wear.
So there you have it, your handy-dandy guide to beating the 'I-have-nothing-to-wear' blues. Next time you're staring at your closet like it's a tough math problem, just remember these tips.
