*ALEYA*

depends on what kind of style you have

why the heck did you make another topic -.-

well my style is sorta PUNKISH...but i wanna be more fashionable..any ideas?

*ALEYA*

get a magazine like "seventeen" and find the clothes that best suit you and your style.

good idea thanx lotts...

*ALEYA*

also teen vogue :), but seventeen is really good.

thanx alot u guys... im glad sumbodys helpful..lol..but i wuz jus wonderin what kind of tops are hott this summer??

*ALEYA*

Depends on where you live and how the weather is.

Like down here in Fl. Were wearing tube tops, halter tops. tank tops, light colored t-shirts

well i live in w.v. ..... anyone kno bout the fashion here???

*ALEYA*

It seems to be that everywhere halter tops, tank tops, etc, are in. Those halter tops that are longer and almost pass as a dress but look really great with jeans are in here - Wisconsin. Big beads are also in as are bangles (wide bracelets). Sundresses are always nice with a cute necklace, sandels, and sunglasses - the ultimate accesory. :)

The Tunic Halter tops, I swear I put one on n Im like I dont even need pants lol...I think theyre better if your taller then 5'6

well
I posted in your introduction
hoped it helped?

thanx i seen wat both of yall are talkin about online && in mags...the long shirts & like a belt over them & bangles & wooden beaded LONG necklaces but wat about hair styles?

*ALEYA*

Take a look at some of your ssurrounding chickie.

believe it or not thats another way how people get a look they like.

for hair, side swept bangs are in at the time, or try a layered or side line style. For a laidback look in clothing, perhaps a graphic tee, jeans and comfortable sneakers will work. :] oh yeah, dont forget the SUNBLOCK ;]

but sum of the stuff only suits those kinda ppl & i have a diff body style & stuff then those people..im shorter & skinnier & diff face type && stuff..sum of the stuff that looks good on them looks horrible on me..

*ALEYA*

^eh im not into any of that stuff.

my hair i usually get a choppy look.
I guess you would call it.

Most people like to grow their hair out it seems
or get different layers.
Some extremely short
The whole shapping your face hair styles as well.


the whole side bangs are in as well i guess
I think its slowly fading but here some examples.

okie dokie..pix helps...

*ALEYA*

ugh i dont like that at all***they look BOXY

*ALEYA*

well then go pick up magazines
go in to hair salons
and get their books and look through them
and if you find one you like them make a appointment.

Don't follow the trend just get what ever you want that you like..

If you do decide to do the long shirt with a belt over it make sure your pants arent to baggy, you'll be pulling them up like every 5 secs. and thats not cute lol and also that picture that shows it, it looks boxy because the shirt doesnt really fit that model's body or it's wayyy to big!

alrighty thanx..so like a more fitted tee than that right??

*ALEYA*

if you want.
Jeez just go to a store and try one what you like
and if you like what it looks like get it.

Yea, it looks fine when I wear a fitted tee with a belt.

watsa bout shoes..i heard wedges & flat bottoms wit patterns are in

*ALEYA*

Umm pick whatever you want, no one is going to judge you on the shoes you wear, make sure they match though lol...I mostly wear Converse Chucks, Flip Flops, Tie-ups (Their flat shoes with strings on them, mainly sandals though), but w.e u want it's your style

try teen vogue. its seriously..my fashion bible.

Wedges & flats are in. Flip flops are also in and never really do go out of style. Get some flip flops in a few different colors and match with what you're wearing and it'll be real cute. Flip flops =

tomgurl, before you wear flip-flops, make sure that your feet aren't looking yucky. If they are, get a pedicure.

yep. large sunglasses, summery tops, and bangles are probably the most popular.

wow! 3 top'cs about staying in fashion now you just sound desperate.

oh dont worry my feet are fine lol..no im not desperate thank u very much..i jus moved 2 u.s. from asia...style is very different there...

maybe u could post a pic of urself up here so we know what u look like & see if there's any good mix & matching to be done with clothes, accessories & hairstyles.

As majority have suggested, go & buy/borrow fashion magazines~ U can plenty of ideas from those mags~


These are some that I look at:

just look around popular magazines.
and or
just shop around popular stores in your area

If you still are wanting the punk look like you were in the beginning the key is to be your own self. (many of the "punkish" looks in magazines are....... out there and just weird. not all of them but I notice tons of them are)
I'm sure your not totally stupid and can tell the difference on what looks good and what doesn't.
The punk look is unique, but it still works. I say if your really going for punk, start your own trend.
((& if you do write about on CB and maybe the rest of us will pick it up ))

Hope that helped

> kick out the black! you wanna look tan this summer and black washes you out!
> go lighter on the eyeliner during the day, it makes you look "fresh"!
> try make-up with gold undertones to make your tan stand out!
> try new hair products like mousse with sunscreen or straightening cream!
> keep your toes looking cute because summer calls for flip-flops, so, pedicures at salon are fun but try doing them yourself for cheaper!

that's all i can think of right now. hope i helped.
