Class never goes out of style. The fashion industry is always at a fast pace, with trends moving in and out of style, it’s hard to keep up sometimes. I have always been a strong believer that your class is the most important style that you can withhold.
We all know that how you dress says a lot about who you are. Too often do I see people dressing without knowing how they are presenting themselves. Skirts are getting shorter, tops more revealing, and pants falling too low. The worst part of it all is that each year younger people are beginning to dress like this.
With men it seems that sizes are becoming larger. I always see the same look with most men, oversized shirts and baggy pants. Realistically men who dress like this don’t really care much for fashion. However, from a fashion point of view, baggy clothes are a bit 90s, but today baggy clothes are often associated with gangs and violence.
Men would benefit to choose clothes that actually fit, or contrast a baggy piece of clothing with a slimmer fitting piece. For example, if you wear baggy jeans, choose a smaller shirt and vice versa. This keeps your outfit trendy and refreshing, as opposed to having a negative connotation.
Women seem to do the opposite by wearing tighter, smaller clothes. A lot of women make the mistake of wearing a tunic as a dress. To clarify, tunics are long shirts and are supposed to be worn with leggings or jeans.
One key factor to remember when choosing attire is to make sure you don’t show a lot of skin. Most girls are aware of this but don’t know exactly how to apply it to wardrobe. First, decide what it is that you want to wear and if you do choose to show skin, keep it classy by limiting how much you show. For example, if you choose to show leg, contrast it by covering up other areas and vice versa.
Overall, keep it classy. We all are guilty of judging people based on what they wear, but remember that we all fall victim to what people think. As college students, we are at that age where we should dress up as opposed to dressing down. Class will never go out of style, demonstrated both in your actions and in your attire.
