Follow These Principles to Look Good While Being Casual

When you’re dressing down, your look can go one of two ways: sloppy or effortlessly stylish. Interestingly, there might be something to dressing down.

Fit.

Keep your clothes fitted. Pick a smart native casual, top or shirt that fit properly. Even if you’re running out of the house in Dunlop slippers, make sure that whatever you’re wearing is fitted. 

Anything that swallows you up will not only make you look like a mess but it gives the appearance that you walked out of a different decade.

Just say no to wrinkles.

Don’t ever wear shabby clothes.  Dressing down doesn't mean you should throw on forgotten aged rag, shabby clothes that have seen better days. Dilapidated clothes are never a good look.

Spice it up with an expensive piece.

You can’t go wrong with a nice watch or an expensive ring to upgrade your outfit. Just find a way to show your audience that you are dressing down on purpose. This is also a way to exude confidence and show a sense of belonging, enough

to say that you’re confident and you know what you’re doing.

Your Fashion Style is your perception

Why Clothes matter: What does your wardrobe say about you?

Clothing have not always been as influential a ‘tell’ of our personalities as they are today. We need to acknowledge the relevance of our choice of clothing irrespective of our gender. Whether male or female, our choice of clothing can affect our self-image, confidence, the impression we create of ourselves and in turn, the way people will accept and react towards us. Fashion sense and style can influence everything, from when we wake up from sleep to when we are out for that business deal or job interview.

When we put on an item of clothing it is common for the wearer to adopt the characteristics associated with that garment. A lot of clothing has symbolic meaning for us, whether it’s professional work attire like a suit, shirt etc. Relaxing weekend wear, like casual, jeans, t-shirt. Or a modern native wears (known as traditional wears).like native casual, senator native wear, or tropical. We have the normalcy to prime the brain to behave in ways consistent with the meaning or importance associated with these clothes.

Ultimately, what you wear could discern how confident you feel about yourself. So, I would not be wrong to say that you are what you dress.

Putting on different clothes creates different thoughts and mental processes. You feel very high and in love with yourself when you are dressed in some clothing.  You hardly see someone in suit fight on the road. This is because, it was found that wearing a suit, improves a person’s agility.
Scientists call this phenomenon “enclothed cognition”
If I’m in casual clothes I relax and can do anyhow, but if I dress up for a meeting or a special occasion, it can alter the way I walk and hold myself.”

So the next time you reach for those casual tops, for that suit ask or ferry red dress, ask yourself how will that clothing item make you feel and what is it saying to the world around you today?
