Pick your wardrobe like a designer

Just watched the very best interview of TOM FORD. I love him, and it is refreshing to hear the simplicity of his work. The Interview which aired on OWN, follows Tom through a few week period leading up to a small viewing. In the interview he talks a lot about the art of being fashion forward in his designs. He said the best way to follow and predict trends is to be aware of your surroundings and to live, daily observation is key in fashion. While it is great to be a trend setter, the reality is most brilliant ideas come from observations we see in passing. Maybe you saw a beautiful fun woman walk by and she was wearing something so cute, maybe you take that look and reinvent it to fit you. Maybe you duplicate fab looks in a magazine you read. Whatever the case, women are observers. What Tom brings into designing is the same out look we should take into our daily wardrobes. I say "think like a designer"... 

Use the world around you to pair and put together looks within your own wardrobe that you love, and know look great on you.

The best place to start when thinking about what to buy for the season ahead, is to get out into the world and see where the fashion is headed... read up magazines to check for looks you love, up to date magazines insure looks are trendy and in for the season at hand. Rip out clips of fashion you like and things you may want to duplicate, take the magazine clippings with you on your trip to the mall. These clippings are quick references while you shop, and help to give your trip to the mall a little focus. Happy shopping

Thanks Tom Ford xoxo....
