|Before you spend money on extras, make sure you have the essentials covered. Buy pieces that complement each other and are timeless. A neutral pencil skirt will be fashionable for years to come and can be updated for the seasons with a fashionable new top.

|Sheer clothing can be sexy, but it is important that it is not too sheer. Wearing something that is too sheer, particularly in private areas, will make you look trashy more than it will make you look classy.

|Have frizzy hair? Use conditioners and shampoos that moisturize. This will put a protective layer over the cuticle of your hair, keeping it from taking in too much moisture. Do not use any products that have any volumizing properties in them.

}{Don't follow a trend just because it's "in." What looks amazing for a runway model might not look great on you. Follow your tastes, not whatever flavor is popular in the most recent fashion magazine. You are going to want to go with your gut on this. You won't be led down the wrong path.

|Don't buy a blouse, shoes, shirt, or dress just because it's on sale for a good price. If it doesn't look good on your body, there is no reason to buy it. Instead, it will languish in your closet, reminding you of money you shouldn't have spent.
