How to avoid being a fashion victim


Be your own guide.

Wear what you think looks nice on you, not what others dictate is trendy. You should always feel comfortable with what your wearing, so stick to items that suit your personality and regular style, all while keeping the occasion and setting in mind.

Less is more,
 
Don't overdo it. Even if your body type does lend itself to wearing trendy garments from head to toe , it's not a look that you want to adopt. Buy several fashionable items every season and mix and match them with the basics in your wardrobe. It's a smart (and cost effective) way to look your best every day.
 
Don't be a sucker for brand names.
 
Try to avoid referring to your clothes by their designer labels (i.e. my "Boss Belt" or my "Diesel Jeans"). By dissociating the item from it's manufacturer, you will condition yourself to look at the item itself rather than being swayed by brand names.
 
Before you decide to purchase a new item ask yourself if you are buying it because it's "in style" or because it genuinely suits you. Ask yourself if you would buy the garment if it didn't have a logo on it.
