3 Fashion Mistakes to Avoid

Aug 2, 2013Archives, STYLE

No one is perfect.  We all have our quirks and flaws that make us who we are.  There are however, some flaws in women’s fashion, which I have noticed over the years that drive me crazy.  I will share three of them with you today, and some simple solutions to remedy those mistakes.

Mistake Number One:  Bare feet in ballet flats.  When your feet sweat, without proper footwear your shoes and feet will stink!
DONTsocks

Solution:  Wear some discrete little “sock buddies” as I call them, or another term I’ve seen is peds.  You can find these in practically any shoe store in any color.  I prefer a nude sock buddy because it blends with my skintone.  If you have a dark complexion I recommend purchasing a supply of brown or tan colored sock buddies.  This will prevent your feet from getting sweaty and gross in your shoes, and your feet from stinking!

Mistake Number Two:  Exposed bra straps. (This one makes me shudder.)
DONTstraps

Solution: Instead of having your bra straps and cami straps exposed under your tank top, please wear a strapless bra.  If you are, lets say, more blessed than other women in that area and have difficulty with strapless bras, try using a safety pin to hold your bra straps together so they are not exposed.  Before you do this just be sure to loosen your bra straps.

Mistake Number Three:  Wearing white undergarments under white.   When you wear white under white, it only draws more attention to your undergarments.
DONTwhitebra

Solution: Nude undergarments.  The best way to wear white is to find a great nude bra and if necessary a nude cami to wear under a white blouse.  The same goes for white pants, white skirt, and a white dress.  Wear nude. Nude. Nude. Nude. Please!
