Tips: proportions

A thing to remember when putting an outfit together and on, in the morning, is the proportion of your body in the garment.

If you are planning to wear an oversized sweater, wear in with formfitting pants or skirt. Otherwise you will drawn in the amount of fabric. The clothes will then wear you, instead of you wearing them.

The same rule applies to looser bottoms, skirts and pants. Match them with fitted tops, to show off your figure.

An important bodypart is your neck, if you plan on wearing a top or sweater with a high neck or collar. The best thing is  to then make your neck look longer by putting you hair up in a sleek bun or ponytail. Because if you leave your hair loose, especially if you have long hair, your neck will be covered both by the hair and the garment.

Don't be a: ''no neck monster''!

Update on the shoes

The shoe-tip actually worked. In the morning, it felt like the shoes were molded by my feet. I should also mention that the shoes were: a pair of ballet-flats from Lanvin.

P.S. It could be quite hard to sleep in high heels.

Tips: New shoes

I recently bought a pair of fancy new shoes. Of course, the probability of blisters is big. Instead of breaking in the shoes, I decided to try a tip which was found online:

To sleep with my shoes on, the whole night. I read that the leather forms itself, because of the warmth and  moisture of your body. Without the pressure on some spots on your feet, like heels.

It is actually the first time I am trying this. Curious if that will even work, we will see!

Will update the blog in the morning.
