10 signs of bad taste in clothes. Test yourself!

You can spend fortunes on clothes and shoes, but this does not guarantee that you will look stylish. What mistakes in choosing a wardrobe reveal a person’s complete lack of taste, read in our material.

The first and, perhaps, the most elementary sign of bad taste is clothes that are not chosen to fit. When an item is too big on you, it will look ugly and awkward on your figure, creating the image of a “shapeless bag.” The exception is oversized items, but their choice must be approached very carefully.

Things that are too small are just as out of place in your wardrobe. Not only are they uncomfortable to wear, but they also look like you've been wearing them since you were in school. This is why it is so important to choose clothes by size and, preferably, with fitting. This will help avoid unpleasant embarrassments that often occur when buying clothes online.

The main purpose of accessories is to make the image more interesting and complete. Therefore, if you neglect these wardrobe details, you are making a big mistake. A well-chosen accessory can radically change your appearance, turning a banal outfit into something completely unique.

Stylish additions to your look can be glasses, a handbag, a belt, a hat, a scarf, and so on. Don't be afraid to experiment! By the way, with the help of accessories you can easily beat unsuccessful purchases from online stores. Previously we showed how.

But what you definitely shouldn’t experiment with is jewelry. The abundance of all kinds of rings, bracelets, chains and earrings immediately reveals the complete lack of taste of its owner.

Moreover, it does not matter at all what the girl is wearing - jewelry or gold jewelry with diamonds. Both extremes will look “cheap”: the image will become tasteless if you don’t know the right amount of jewelry.

No self-respecting fashionista will wear “Chinese copies” of branded clothing. And why? It’s better to buy a good quality item from a little-known designer than to wear a “burnt” Abibas or Gucci bought at the nearest market.

Even if you come across a high-quality copy of a branded handbag or shoes, remember: this is just a copy, and only the name is from the original item.

But now it will be unexpected! It turns out that original branded items are not always good either. It’s bad when there are too many of them, and besides them there is nothing in the wardrobe - no zest, no taste, no personal style... If you put on a Dolce & Gabbana blouse, Armani jeans, Balenciaga sneakers and complemented all this with a Louis Vuitton handbag, this is still does not guarantee that you will look stylish.

After all, the main thing is not the inscription on the tag, but the ability to correctly combine items in the wardrobe. With the right talent, even an outfit picked up at a second-hand store can look much better than brand new items.

Stylists categorically do not recommend using more than three different colors in one look. Orange shoes, a red dress, a sea green jacket and colorful accessories might look right on a street style star. In ordinary life, such an image will only repel.

When composing a bow, it is best to start from one color scheme. And if you want something bright and extraordinary, choose the appropriate accessories. But you don’t need to make yourself a “rainbow”!

Underwear showing through clothes is not only a clear sign of bad taste, but is also generally considered bad manners. When composing a fashionable look, make sure that the clothes are not see-through; there are no visible seams, the underwear is color-matched and does not peek out from under the clothes.

And for those who really like to wear translucent things, stylists advise using an additional bottom layer in the form of laconic tops, T-shirts or shorts. For example, under a see-through beige blouse you can wear a basic top of a similar color. A translucent bra in this case will look inappropriate and even vulgar.

Shoes are no less important than other wardrobe items. On the contrary, many believe that it is through our shoes that we are greeted by our surroundings. It’s not for nothing that they say that “shoes are the second face of a person.” And often, if you choose it incorrectly, you can ruin the entire impression of the image as a whole.

Therefore, when creating a fashionable look, pay maximum attention to this important detail. And, of course, don’t forget to keep your shoes clean; timely submit it for repairs if necessary, or “send it to rest.” Old, worn sneakers or shoes with scuffs are unlikely to decorate any look.

As we already said, it doesn’t matter what brand the clothes are. It is much more important that it be of high quality. Things made from good, high-quality materials will not only look better, but will also last you much longer.

There is one apt phrase about this: “We are not so rich that we can wear cheap things.” The meaning is clear: it is better to buy yourself something more expensive but of high quality once, than to constantly change cheap things.

And, of course, it is important to remember that we are all individuals. There is no need to blindly follow every fashion advice, because certain things will suit some people, but will look completely ridiculous on others. Listen to trends, but filter all information through the filter of your own opinion. Experiment with images and look for what suits and pleases you.

Remember: the main thing is quality, not quantity, your inner feelings, not what others think, neatness, not style... These simple rules can help you achieve perfection in your wardrobe and look advantageous in any situation.
