Generally speaking, having the right size is a good idea. Though this can be a bit tricky as over the years our bodies and figures change a lot. As such, spend a little bit of time ensuring what you’re picking up fits.

 

 

Not wearing belts

Even if you take the previous suggestion to heart and have form-fitting clothing, avoiding belts and wearing constant outfits that don’t have belts is a bad idea. Belts are stylish and don’t always need to have the role of keeping your pants up. Belts add shape to an outfit and can add a certain unique look to it.

 

 

Wrong silhouette

Everyone is built differently, so you need to find clothing that silhouettes that. This means if your body is pear-shaped (i.e. heavier on the bottom), you want to wear slimmer items on the bottom part of your body and vice versa.

 

 

Wrong colors

Not only should clothing complement your body, but it should also complement your complexion. Make sure your colors work well with your skin tone.

 

 

Pearls

Even if you’re hosting dinner parties or events, avoid this piece of jewelry. A single pearl necklace can date you significantly. Go for silver, since it’s a timeless piece of jewelry.
