Responsible smartness

Simple black and white

What is being smart in fashion? First is the dictionary definition and the next is the simplified explained meaning.

• Elegance by virtue of being fashionable.
• Smartness and knowledge are often used interchangeably even though they are distinct. Being smart means being able to make use of limited knowledge to obtain more knowledge.

Which is just like trends that will never fade nor go out of the industry. With the little knowledge of knowing what is right or wrong you can distinguish between smart and shabby. Using the word smart again, this time welcoming it to the industry of clothing. How you present yourself is very important in the corporate world and people can classify your presentation as how smart you are. Three things that human should acquire without any advice from fashion police or fashion shows are washed clothes; well ironed and well balanced to your body and it all boils down in taking responsibility of your image. Anyone can pull off a stunt with the famous black and white. People respect you more when your smart and presentable rather than when you shabby and clumsy. Reality check, fashion is not who we are but how we clothe it, is as much as saying that you can express yourself and emotions varying on what you wear on daily bases.   

"I never cut class. I loved getting As, I liked being smart. I liked being on time. I thought being smart is cooler than anything in the world." Michelle Obama

Tips:

• Allow yourself to splurge on one small item.
• Clothes should glide over your body whether sitting or standing. A larger size may be more appropriate.
• Make a list before you shop. Write down what you need, and how much it cost for each part. Then you wont use too much money.
• Go straight to the clearance rack! If you do not find anything on that rack, look at the other clothes, but be sure you are getting your money worth and are not burning a hole through your wallet.
• If your phone has the ability to, join every coupon app that you can find. This way whenever you walk into a store you can pull up a coupon for it.
