2 Reason Why You Might Feel Frumpy In Your Clothes
Do you feel frumpy in your clothes?
One of the biggest reasons clients come to Fashion Fix is because they do not feel comfortable and confident in their clothes when they get dressed. What they feel is frumpy, dumpy, and out of date. If this is you, know you are not alone!
We coach clients on many specifics on how to turn the ship around, and how to start dressing in a way that compliments them. Delivering good fits and great looks! We dive into the details on body shape and fit points for your shape, personal style and how to improve your look with color and pattern that you wear, and how to shop for pieces that will actually build a closet where you love to get dressed.
But…..let’s get to the 2 biggest reasons you, and our clients don’t feel good in their clothes
Your clothes are too big.
A majority of the time women are so concerned that their clothes are going to be too tight or too small that they overcompensate and buy their clothes too big. Or, I see women buying clothes to cover and camouflage their body and end up wearing clothes that are shapeless and too big. Trying to cover or camouflage yourself with clothes is a red flag and you will eventually just feel frumpy and dumpy in what you are wearing.
2. Your clothes are too long.
Sleeves, dresses, skirts, pants, jackets have major fit points when it comes to length. When your clothes are too long they look frumpy, there is just no way around it. Depending on your body shape there are different lengths that will typically work best for you. If you ever are feeling frumpy in your clothes and don’t know what to do, cuff or ruche your sleeve, cuff your pants, and tuck in your shirt. I promise you, you will feel a world of difference!
