What is really the true meaning of timeless fashion, everybody loves talking about those classic, timeless and essential pieces, which fits everyone well, its comfortable, safe and save a hella lot of money; it’s a good investment in a wardrobe. Timeless fashion is the basic building block of a well-rounded closet.
If you are interested in classic staples for your wardrobe, go for simple and elegant fashion aesthetic that helps you look fabulous and boosts your confidence without breaking the bank. Get to know the fashion brands that produce quality timeless fashion pieces, so that when you are out shopping you know exactly what to be on the look out for. Moreover most common fashion shopping tips for building a great wardrobe, is to base it on timeless foundation pieces and then add trendier clothes each season. It saves money; you waste less on poorly made clothes that only last a year or two in both style and wear. I used to be a victim of this! In other terms, you must have direction as you shop for your clothing.
Anyhu to answer the question timelessness in fashion is slang that covers various designs that have survived decades and they haven’t gone out of style neither trend, they have survived the fast pace of fashion, and are good and true as now as they were when created.
Some of the pieces we celebrate today have not been conceived with timeless built-in features. For some were initially designed for specific purpose not necessarily related to fashion for example Converse All Stars were conceived for playing basketball, but they didn’t become an iconic product until they were adopted by the punk movement.” It was the same for Ray Ban Aviators; They were made for a medical use in the beginning, protecting your eyes from the sun, but they became the sunglasses for those who wanted to look like rock stars, when real rock stars actually started to use them for protection from the flashing cameras.
I believe that to achieve timeless fashion you need; simplicity, good investment and originality. Simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance as Coco Chanel puts it, go simple and you will never regret it. While at it experiment, there’s no formula really and no end. Lets learn to invest in our wardrobes, don’t possess an expensive taste yet you are a merciless victim of penny-pinching, normalize spending on quality items. Spend having in mind that the item purchased will serve you and you can always repair it. Think in this lane, if our parents or older siblings never invested in quality would there be some hand me down clothes! there are some classic pieces out there much as we are in the 21st century, lol! I do have few items my elder sister gave me about four years ago and are still in good shape, quality my people quality, I can’t emphasize this more guys. Let your creative side be authentic, be yourself at all cost. Must I say don’t be a full time follower of trends; don’t focus on trends too much, a few here and there won’t do harm though.
For timeless fashion your sense of style has more to do with knowing what works for you and sticking to it than it does your society. Not letting your age or society decide what you are to wear, but of course there’s the question of decency, it’s subjective; you just don’t let “what you are supposed to wear” dictate how you should present yourself to the world. Timeless dressing is about being true to who you are, not listening to someone else’s vision of who you should be.
Much as the saying goes Fashion is change, you can’t keep on changing your whole entire wardrobe every season with every changing trend. It’s exhausting, expensive with a lot of confusion and above all you keep on losing yourself. Timeless fashion might turn out to be the answer to today’s fast moving fashion, with trends being released every microsecond! Therefore there’s need for a blueprint, guidelines rather on how to create an awesome timeless and classic wardrobe; that in turn forms the basis of your style.
Have you ever sat and wondered how amazing it would be as you look back at some of the old photos of the younger you and guess what you see timeless elegance, you see someone who felt comfortable in their own skin and authentic! Probably that’s my driving force what about you?
In a world full of trends I want to remain a classic, an original! do you?!
Stick around for my next post I will be dropping those items one by one on the guidelines and different ways to style them.
