When it comes to a woman’s beauty, the proverb “devil is in the details” could not be more accurate. If we add small finishing touches, like our favourite lipstick or a chic new bracelet, our confidence can increase from 0 to 100. But there are some aspects of our appearance that we inadvertently overlook, which can undermine all of our efforts. Most likely, you see them quickly in other people but neglect to correct them when it comes to yourself.
To ensure that we are all consistently at our best, we identified those little wardrobe inaccuracies, acknowledged that we occasionally commit them, and made the necessary corrections.
1. Visible bra straps
Right now, bralettes are highly fashionable and are designed to protrude from our clothing. When it comes to conventional bras, the topic is very different. In a professional atmosphere, they are unsuitable, and they generally make any outfit appear less put together.
Solution:
Don’t be afraid of strapless bras, and experiment with various undergarment shapes. Companies manufacture inclusive sizes that offer appropriate support to all body shapes for any occasion because they are aware of the issue.
Choose tank tops with broad, snug straps if you’re going to wear one.
2. Deodorant stains
This one is incredibly simple to overlook when you’re wearing anything black, but it makes a big difference.
Solution:
There are many undetectable deodorants available; if you haven’t already, consider doing so.
3. Sleeves that are way too long
Extremely long sleeves can be quite unpractical and make anyone look like a child. And we’re not just referring about our favourite cosy sweater; any top could make this style faux pas.
Solution:
Look up the proper way to roll up your sleeves in style. You look so cool doing it.
Visit a reputable tailor to obtain the ideal length.
4. Not matching or bad foundation
There are greater crimes hiding on the beauty counters, but we’ve all been guilty of foundation that didn’t match our necks. Because they contain elements that are protective, several SPF-containing cosmetics may cause you to appear white in photographs.
Solution:
If you are aware that you will be photographed, choose foundations or chemical sunscreens with lower SPF ratings. Don’t forget to use sunscreen, though!
5. Worn-out accessories that don’t match
Our clothing is supposed to be completed with accessories to make it stand out. Sadly, they occasionally have the ability to make everything appear strange. While a unifying theme is preferred, you are not required to match your bag, shoes, and belt.
Solution:
Pay close attention to how your accessories look overall. Old leather and faded paint don’t look cute.
6. Shoes that don’t properly fit your feet
At some point in our lives, all of us have forgone our own comfort in favour of a stylish pair of shoes. Unfortunately, it’s obvious to everyone around us and we start to feel so miserable it’s almost unbearable.
Solution:
The guideline is that comfort comes first; abide by it. Consider how the shoes will perform in various climates and whether your feet tend to occasionally swell.
7. Missed belt loop
Even though it’s a little error, it will undoubtedly draw unwelcome criticism.
Solution:
If you don’t already have one, it would be a good idea to purchase a full-body mirror. It will undoubtedly keep you from overlooking these minute nuances.
8. Dandruff or hair on clothes
This one makes folks wonder about your cleanliness in addition to your sloppy clothes. However, having a dry scalp is nothing to be ashamed of; just be sure to protect your clothing from it.
Solution:
After brushing your hair, check your attire for any stray hairs or hidden dandruff. In this case, a lint roller is a blessing.
9. Foundation stains
It can be very unpleasant to put on cute clothing and fresh makeup only to have them both ruined. When you’re rushing, it’s really simple to miss, but it definitely draws unwelcome attention.
Solution:
Purchase a quality setting spray and finishing powder. Numerous solutions are available to ensure that your makeup is entirely transfer-proof.
Another option is to lay your top on top of a piece of fabric covering your head. Just be sure to keep foundation away from your neck.
10. Unkempt feet
Do you frequently glance down at your own feet? During sandal season, it can be devastating to your appearance and is undoubtedly simple to overlook.
Solution:
You’re fine to go if you scrub your feet every two days and apply foot cream before bed.
11. Wearing hair ties as bracelets
Although having a hair tie on hand all the time is really practical, unless it’s a really expensive one, it can appear a little tacky. To avoid this habit is preferable.
Solution:
Simply keep your hair ties in your purse to ensure that they are always accessible.
12. Dirty ears
We’re discussing the entire ear, not just the ear canals. Some people neglect to wash their outer ear, although it can acquire just as much filth as your ear canals.
Solution:
Every time you shower or wash your hair, wash your outer ear.
What additional minor errors are you prone to noticing when you observe others? What aspect of a dishevelled look most irritates you?
