Five Ways Fashion Is More Than Your Clothing
When it comes to style and fashion, looking fashionable is about more than just picking the right jeans or the right shirt. Clothing isn’t the only aspect of fashion. That’s why it is important to understand more about fashion.
If you pick up a fashion magazine at the store you’ll find more than just dresses and pictures of runway models within the pages. From ads for makeup to fashionable accessories like jewelry and purses, there is a whole world of stuff that you need to have in your walk-in closet, or on your body.
Tattoos
While the world has a love ‘em or hate ‘em relationship with tattoos, those that get them love them. And, like a bag of chips, they normally can’t just stop at one. Your tattoos become a part of your fashion since they are literally a permanent accessory.
If you have tattoos that you are proud of and want to show off you will want to buy clothing that allows you to do that. That could mean short skirts or even open back shirts.
Makeup
Makeup is definitely a fashion accessory, at least for those that wear it. It’s really up to the individual on whether or not makeup is for them, or how much or how little of it to wear. You may want to have fun with your makeup at times, or even tone it down at other times.
There are also so many different things that come with the artistry of makeup. Do you wear lipstick or no? How about blush, eyeliner, or even eyeshadow? And then do you match it with your outfit? It’s all up to you.

Hair
The way you style and cut your hair, and even your choice to dye it or not, is all part of fashion as well. Maybe you prefer to grow yours out long or cut it yourself, that’s all part of your own fashion preferences.
If you want to have even more fun with your hair you can consider buying some wigs. This lets you experiment with different cuts and colors without any commitment.
Accessories
The main accessories that most people wear revolve around jewelry and watches, but those really aren’t the only options. You can wear hair accessories as well. These include things like headbands and barrettes.
Scarves and belts can also make stylish accessory options. Belts can be worn in belt loops or even over longer shirts or dresses. While scarves by be worn around the neck, in the hair, or even as a faux belt.
Shoes
Shoes are another great part of fashion that you can have a ton of fun with. While usually shoes serve a purpose, keeping your feet warm or allowing you to jog without hurting your feet. However, some sure are for style only.
Maybe you want to pair some knee high boots with leggings and an oversized shirt. This is a perfect fall look. While in the warm weather you may match sandals of all kinds with whatever you wear. And, if you dress up a lot you might wear a lot of dress shoes.
