Discovering Your Aesthetic

 M

What I’ve come to realize about fashion, finding your aesthetic, and discovering your style.

Retrospecting through clothing trends and aesthetics, there has been trial and error. Searching for inspiration and ways to cultivate your closet doesn’t have to be an uphill battle! I'm here to tell you, your environment and what you already own is the perfect starting place. Although, it is nearly impossible to constantly fit a trending aesthetic, it is not impossible to embrace your own and see what your aesthetic lean towards. Whether you are the type to know your style, or not, I have some pointers for you to curate and discover your fashion aesthetic. 

Looking through your closet is the first step, notice the color schemes you’re seeing through what you wear the most. This can aid you in learning what colors you want to wear more vs. what you have excess of in your closet. I tend to wear a lot of neutral tones, which I love, but I would enjoy bringing color into my wardrobe with more earthy tones.  Having timeless pieces are the staples in your closet. Having those staple pieces can make  Some of my staple pieces include: Nike, gold hoop earrings, sneakers, denim, crew neck pullovers, the classic white tee, and athleisure. What are your go-to staples?

Inspiration and finding it can be the fun part. Seek inspiration from whatever you love! You can feel inspired through your fashion icons, mood boards, social media, lists, movies/shows, the runway, books, collages, your passions, and hobbies. Keeping your closet and dream wardrobe in mind is essential. What do you want to wear, but like- really? Let it unfold in front of your eyes! Angie Karan said, “When the inner beauty exceeds the outward beauty–it creates a magical dance in the heart.” This goes hand-in-hand with manifesting, which plays a big role for me and my closet. Visualizing your outfit goals can manifest it into your reality. Some of my most favorite clothing items to wear started as being added to a Pinterest board believe it or, not! Manifesting is what I like to call ‘everyday magic’ and it starts with your mindset.

So you see, discovering your aesthetic is as personal as finding yourself. Take what you love to wear and embrace it! What I love about fashion is, you sort of make the rules up as you go. Don’t let anyone tell you you’re doing it wrong or, not enough. You don’t owe anyone else an explanation, especially with what you wear on your body! Wearing what you love and what feels like you true you, is the aesthetic. You set the trends, not the other way around. Be confident and wear what you want; you are that girl !
