Pick Out Your Outfit in Advance — and 4 Other Rules the World's Most Stylish Women Swear By

Dressing for yourself also means dressing for the body you have. Sure, we have insecurities and not every trend is meant to celebrate every body type. But don't get bogged down in the stuff you can't wear and don't try to make it work if you know in your heart that it just doesn't — or worse, makes you uncomfortable. Focus on the assets you want to highlight and let that become your signature. Dress an hourglass shape with a waist-cinching full skirt or show off your stems with slim-cut denim. These pieces will show off your shape and define your style.
