How to Put Outfits Together When You Suck at Putting Outfits Together
So you want to look fashionable and stylish, but you don’t quite know what goes with what or how to get that polished look. So how do put together just the right clothes with just the right shoes, with just the right, etc.?
Answer: You let the experts do it for you. Then you buy the stuff, put it on, and take full credit for coming up with it yourself.
The internet makes it easy to shop this way with things called lookbooks. Lookbooks are pages of outfits planned by people in the fashion industry. Once you find an ensemble you like, click through and you’ll find links to individual pages where you can purchase the various pieces you need to create the look. Here are 4 sources for look books…
- Arden B. (ships to United States)
- Chick Downtown (based in United States)
- Marciano (ships to United States)
- Shopbop (ships worldwide)
Need something right away and don’t have time to shop on the internet? No problem. Just look at what the mannequins are wearing in the store windows for wardrobe inspiration. That’s usually where they put their best looks in order to draw people into the store.

When your putting together outfits you look for a couple colors that work with each other then from that you can make it your own and at times ill be wearing four shirts you have the top layer to show you, under layer which should look good with the pants your wearing then if your under layer short put on a layer under that that will peak out the bottom or top that will add a special corl that can be any color
i hope this will help you
p.s. i dress kind of odd some times
