How to choose the best fashion and style for you and your family
The festive season is nearing and this is one time the family shops together. It is often perplexing to even begin to think about how to sort this mess. Here are a few tips that you can keep in mind while shopping for your family.
What is everyone’s Style?
Every family member probably has a unique style that they like to convey, therefore it's important to keep their preferences in mind when you select clothing for them. Every individual’s style can be greatly influenced by many factors and can change very quickly too, this is true in the case of children, teenagers, and young adults who gibe great emphasis on what the current trend in the fashion world are and how they can be included in their societal peer group. For younger family members their clothes define their personality and hence their clothing purchase is a huge decision. The middle-aged segment is a mix of being in trend and being comfortable in what they wear. The approach is more functional than merely the aesthetics of the clothing. The choices are pretty much stable and don’t change at a rapid pace like the younger group. The easiest and safest to pick clothes out for are babies, who don’t know anything much about their attire, and the older age segment who have their fixed dressing patterns and are unaffected by the change in trends.
Perhaps the best way to approach shopping for those with a particular taste is to choose some solid pieces that will form the basis of the wardrobe. These are otherwise called wardrobe-essentials. A good pair of regular blue jeans, a white shirt, a good pair of shoes, and some formal shirts are staples for men while women can ensure they have one little black dress, a formal white shirt, a smart cut solid colored dress in pastels, a good pair of well-fitting jeans, etc. A standard set of formal and casual shoes that can be matched with any outfit is also a must to complete your wardrobe.
Once your staples are in place it is easy to add on more to widen your range of clothes. Having a basic wardrobe of high-quality pieces will save you a lot of time and effort in the future. A day-to-night outfit also is an amazing addition for those impromptu dos for those busy people.
Your clothing is decided by functionality
The clothing
that you pick cannot just look good. The best-looking ones aren’t often
functional or great to wear and to go about your daily life. Those are best
suited only on mannequins.
Choosing your clothing to suit your routine is extremely important. The part of your routine that rules most of your day is to be given prime importance as opposed to an occasional doing. Most schools and places of work have dress codes, so you need to make sure that all the pieces you purchase fit within the guidelines. It's best to be a little more conservative with what you choose when it comes to more professional settings.
Clothing designed to be worn for leisure has more freedom in style and function. This is usually where you let the individual personality shine through. The types of interests and hobbies that each family member likes will determine the appropriate type of clothing. If you have kids who like sports, casual clothes that can be washed frequently are best. For someone who prefers an artistic pursuit, a stain-resistant piece would be a great idea.
Durability and Quality
The quality of the clothing that you purchase should be another consideration that you make. Though high-quality purchases will look heavy on the pockets initially, they tend to last longer and are way more comfortable than the cheaper alternatives. Take this into consideration when you go shopping. While shopping for children though you can exercise some smartness and decide how soon your kids grow out of clothes and it is wiser not to spend enormous amounts on fancy clothing that you cannot use for more than a few months.
Price factor
The biggest factor ruling any purchasing decision is the price. Your usage pattern, functionality, choice of material, kind of clothing, and occasion everything will decide if you need to compromise on the price over your choice of clothing or vice versa.
Now with online shopping being rampant, access to the best brands and the latest fashion trends isn’t a huge challenge. Search for what your heart desires, read through the product descriptions, reviews, etc, pick what you need and get them shipped to you wherever you are.
