who has it harder when choosing outfits... women or men

This is the question.

who has the hardest time choosing what to wear, men or women. Men's fashion had delevloped so much over the passed few years they do have more to choose from, but as all the women know we always say we have nothing to wear and have a wardrobe full of clothes. which one has it the hardest?

Men
The last decade has made a massive number of men uneasy when it comes to going in stores and choosing something to wear as there is alot more fashion styles they can go into, there isn't just one style. When they are choosing jeans to they go for the tight skinny jeans, slim Jeans so they are not glued to their legs but fit nice, and then you have the Jeans which are baggy.
Before the mid sixties all mean had to worry about if they are going to wear a tie or not that was the only problem they had. Things have changed alot since then.

Men now want to look good and make sure they do so do they have more pressure on them as women or less?

Men now have so many different cuts and shape for their body type now. do they go for  a suit with a tight fit, what colour and material are they going to choose and they don't want to come across like they have gone to so much effort even though really we know they have. There is as much pressure on a man to look good as much as us women have, they have their grooming tools making sure their facial hair is looking good, skin products and there is even men out there dying there hair as well. Men dress for their shape but there shape is more or less if they are broad shoulders or what size their waist and chest size is, I think jeans and suit wear is the hardest for men to choose as they could be tall and need a long in the legs or arms and then most stores have alot of regular but not long so that's when it can become alot harder for them as they do have to have a suit and a pair of jeans which are well fitted to them to work. Men want to look good but still want to look manly so they tend to go for the normal type of material instead of a silk top for example. Most men work out and then they tend to wear the fitted t shirts, as you wouldn't see a very slim build or a bigger build person wear the tight fitted t shirts they will tend to go for loose clothing.

Women
But also men don't know how lucky they are as they can throw on a shirt and trousers and look smart. women have so many different little touches to make as how do I style my hair in different ways, what style of clothing is going to fit them better for there shape as ladies know we have to think about our chest and hips also. Making sure we are wearing something which is...
what's going to suit our shape
how do I create a shape if they have a boyish figure.
What style do I go for.
We do have alot of more styles and cuts to men which makes it hard for women.

Also women's fashion has changed so much over the decades. Women's trousers have a longer history than people know, women have only just learned that trousers can be smart and well fitted trousers can have a sex appeal about them in certain colours however when women first wore trousers there was alot of jokes saying they are masculine and not attractive they were they were said they were only suitable for very slim rangy outdoor type of women which personally makes you think im glad I wasn't born in that time and also if people wore dresses and skirts that was not floor length would be talked about and called crude names as they shiuld always be seen one way which was nice and neat. 

Nice and neat?

many decades ago how are women meant to win against this.

women have more to go with the outside when they are wearing dresses or skirts are they going to wear no tights, black tights and also and then we are always matching everything together like a purse, bag and then are we going to wear simple jewellery or are we going to go for something big and a statement. Women have a lot of pressure to look good and not just with clothing, we have our hair and make up to and every women knows if one part of our make up is not on point thats it we start again. Women always ask their friends if something looks good on them and ask for advise from their friends when they choose an outfit. Do men do this?

but the questions is who has it harder?

think about it

I'm quiet easy when it comes to picking what to wear as I do have my own style which is personally mine it's never been that hard for me I always have an idea in mind when I'm getting up in the morning but I always have to make sure I do look good in anything I am choosing sometimes I can be like I don't know what to wear and I open my wardrobe and it's like I have so many clothes but I never spend hours thinking I always do within the next 15 minute's what I'm going to wear.

Maybe now we are both equal now when it comes to it.

Key trends to always keep in your wardrobe

key trends 

Trends in fashion change so much what comes in style and what goes out but everything always still comes back around, trends which was in the 90's come back around to be the biggest trends right now so don't get throwing away clothes because there not in trend it's about making it a new style with something that's in trend right now. I never throw clothes away, If it fit me and I still love the style, then yes im going to be wearing them in or out of trend.

Trends changes as fast as the weather does its hard to keep up and there is some people out there who wouldn't be dead seen wearing something which was a few seasons ago. My wardrobe consists of style that suit me in stlye and colour and I love to wear. I have a dress I made 3 years wear it all the time and I mix it with what's in trend now or whatever I like as trends come back around and there is alot that come back every summer time. Keep your clothes don't be throwing them out.

mix the old with the new!

Denim -
Denim never seems to go out of style it's there every summer without fail, in shirts, shorts, skirts and jackets and now in dresses. keep tha denim jacket of yours as your will wear it again and again.

Floral -
Coming from a floral lover this trend is always here and is staying but to be honest even if it wasn't and would never be back in trend I would still wear it because it's my style. You have to have your own style aswell as following what everyone else is wearing.

The floral print is meant to make you feel in that summer mood, the sun is out, dress colourful enjoy the weather as much as you can and makes your day better kind of feeling.

Sandels -
Every year without fail sandles are always in fashion as soon as spring hits you, you start seeing them in store. This is a trend which will never go out and I know alot of people out there once winter comes out these shoes at the back if the wardrobe and then when summer comes back around go out and buy new ones and it repeats it's self.
Why?
Get them back out sandels look the same every year maybe with a slight change but come on every year have a wardrobe with a collection of clothes for every year. Keep them get them back out your feet are not going to grow.

You get people every year saying when it's summer they have no summer clothes... what why? where did your summer clothes go from last year.

There is always going to be a new trend it doesn't mean not to follow it, it means add it to your collection of clothes you already have, style this around what you already have, add it to what your wearing!! have something you wore last year or the year before that with a jacket what's in style now a colour which is a new trend and you haven't got that colour. It's about building up different styles to your own not throwing away or not wearing something.

Go have a look in your wardrobe right now I'm sure your find something in there you haven't worn for a very long time.

am I right?

now go get it out off that hanger and wear it.

Top tips for holiday packing!

A friend told me this would make a great topic as she is going away this weekend thought it would help her with her packing which I know for a fact I will be using these tips for my self.

When it comes to packing deep down we all hate it, the check list making sure we have everything packed and we all want it done days before we go away but it never ends up that way. It's always a last minute panic, it's ether from the six pair of shoes we look at, the holiday dresses we have seen and the extra cute things we see and want to wear and of course we think about the hair and make up we need to look good for the nights out but do we really all need everything we pack!!! Travelling light is way hard than it looks than people think because it's always the extra things you need.

First thing is to lay everything you want to take with you out on the bed and then half it, we never wear everything we take with us, we pack way more than we need we all do it. Everyone feels different on holiday so take the clothes you feel the most comfortable in.

When it comes to going on holiday we think shoes but really you don't need that many shoes than you think. Break it down, do you really need 4 pairs of heals and 5 pairs of sandles which look the same, NO. Take a pair of nude or black sandels these can be worn for a night out or a day at the beach. Flip flops you know are going to be used for walking around the pool, when it comes to it take one ot two pairs as your on holiday it's different wearing sandels if they are heals or flats it doesn't matter I bet you half the shoes you take won't even make it out of the suitcase, look at your clothing take a nude and black colour you can't go wrong with these as they go with everything. This saves space in your suitcase for things you are going to need and remember always pack the shoes at the bottom and in the corners of the bag.

Roll every item of clothing that can be rolled it will stop from creasing and will arrive in the beat shape possible for you. 

I absolutely love scarfs but this is an amazing idea for you and I will be using this one as I love scarfs so much I have about 15 of them, scarfs are light and the material is so thin. You can wear tbem to make an outfit or when it's a chilly afternoon and to wrap around your arms, use this for the beach, wrap it around your waist this will easier to pack than having loads of shorts in your case and will look a not better also think about it.

Take a see through washing bag with you add your sun cream, lotions, shampoo. They are light weight and the best thing is they are see through so your be able to see if you missed anything as we all know we panic when we think we have forgot something and I am one of these people I will go crazy thinking have I forgot this but seeing it there in the bag makes everything that big better. Also buy them travel bottles for lotions. I have to pack my face cleaning products and will not leave home without them, even more on holiday as your going to sweat  from the heat and also you don't know what they use in their pools, I love having clear skin so making sure I'm still cleaning my skin the way I do at home makes me feel better. The travel bottles are amazing for this and also takes up alot less space than you think and they only cost a pound for a set of them.

Make a check list and one by one tick it off while putting the iteams away. Make sure you do a good few days before you go because we all hate rushing last minute don't we. I always try and plan but it never works maybe I will get better at this.

What has been said is you really only need about 10 main items of clothing for holiday as you can  mix and match. When it comes to going out on the night that's when it's like what do I pack. Hopefully this would help you. Take a going out skirt and then few tops to make this outfit you can wear the skirt more than once, light wear dresses do not take up space at all so take a few of these as you can use the scarf your taking for the beach to wrap around your arms if you get chilly on the night. Like I said the 4 pair of shoes you are taking go with everything you don't need to have a different pair of shoes for every night trust me you won't wear them. The towels take up the most space and they are the heaviest thing you will be taking put and there is a few ways you can go around by doing this. You can ether roll them tight and place them in the sides and corners of the suitcase or you can lay them flat right at bottom or the last thing you put in the suitcase lay them flat over everything you are taking and then zip up.

Enjoy and getting packing guys x
