Hello Dynamic folks! How are you all? I hope you are all well and staying positive?
A lot of people ask me what my personal style is, and how did i discover my personal style. Your Personal Style introduces you before you formally introduce yourself.
That might sound a little confusing to you but it’s true, and your personal style can change over time.
Personal style isn’t defined by trends or recent fashion, it is knowing who you are and saying it without caring what anyone thinks.
My Personal style is not particularly, i might look all covered up modest today, wear very loose fitting clothes tomorrow, really chic fitted, body hugging dress (not that i am a big fan of that) and the next opt for some revealing or showing a little skin, so my style is not definitive at all.
I never used to show a lot of skin at all but over time, i am learning to be comfortable in my own skin and learning to love my body more (taken me a long time) but yes, I’m learning and embracing me however that’s what style is, it kind of announces you. I’m getting really confident and bold with my style and believe me it’s a good thing even though some might disagree but it’s my PERSONAL STYLE!
Can i also add that your personal style is personal and unique to you, your personal style shows you off.
Your personal style might change every now and again, or improve depending on your job, age, beliefs and also personal situation, however it might only depending on how you decide to let it change.

Tips of discovering your personal Style.
To discover your personal style, you have to
–Know What defines you ; These are the kind of clothes that really define you, your style, your type of person because you always gravitate towards your personal style. Do you like covering up? Do you love wearing prints or does the sight of them make you cringe? This has noyhing to do with trends, it has to do with you and what attracts you once you see it. Do you like showing some skin? Are you more of a Conservative person or not? If you like short dresses because of what ever reason, then go for it. This should be your personal definitive staple. If you love tight blouses, wear them as long as you know you can pull it
–Know What your comfortable in; Alot of people tend to wear what makes them feel comfortable which is ideally a good thing. Such people are those who have discovered themselves and know what they want and go for it. Most people however, go for tight fitting items of clothings, don’t get me wrong, like i said style is personal to you but think about it, something tight is uncomfortable from just looking,one can tell. That said, my level od comfort might not be the same as yours.
–Know your body shape; This is always the trickiest bit for those who can’t decide what their body shapes are, and honestly it doesn’t really matter what body shale you are, if you dont like an outfit, you will struggle to wear it because you dont like it.
So no matter what i say or advice, you just don’t like and so will not wear it. I don’t know if this makes sense. However, some people just wear what others wear because others wear it and don’t consider what body shapes they have and what not to copy.
Are you pear shaped, hour-glass, athletic, rectangular or apple shaped? You will need to find out in order to help you decide or guide you in your journey to your personal style discovery. That way you style you efficiently without having to copy others or trend.
Know what colours inspire you; When you see colours, do you get overly excited (like me now, was never the case before) do you think it’s too “out there”? Colours recently have been inspiring some of my looks and i absolutely love the new me as i feel really empowered, bold and all kinds boss vibes. I personally think that colourful outfit elevates your mood and also the mood of others around you. When i see someone wearing colours, i smile and i feel a little bubble of excited inside me, no matter how many colours they wear. Gone are the days of colour rules like “don’t wear more than three colours in one look” Oh stop! When you discover your style, you make the rules!!
Know your Accessories; I have lately been loving and putting my Accessories to good use. If you love the extra bits to top up your looks then you might be someone who loves bold style. Necklaces, rings, belts, hats, scarves, handbags, shoes etc all these are little style elevating products/items that will keep you looking edgy, fashionable even though you are wearing one look.
Good with Accessories? you can comfortably slay any look just by using them well, believe me, you will look elegant very effortlessly.
