5 Tips on How to Look Like a Socialite

Hey Fashion Lurkers,

Today I want to share with you ways to improve your look by dressing like you are a socialite.

What is a socialite?

•          A person who is well known in fashionable society and is fond of social activity.
•         Example: Angela Simmons

1) Hair Game Proper 

• Ladies, please make sure your hair is on point. Whether you are rocking a weave or natural, your hair should always look good. 
• Come up with a signature hair style like Amber Rose. Find a hair style that fits you best and run with it. 

2) Flawless Face 

• Your face should be flawless. Take care of your skin by drinking plenty of water and exfoliating 3 times a week. Go to your local drug store and buy the proper products for your face.
• If you have acne, please go to the dermatologist and get your face treated by professionals.
• You Tube is the tutorial Bible, so use it!
• Find a foundation that looks like you have nothing on your face. You don't want your make-up to look like a mask.
• And always remember to Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!

3) Upgrade Your Wardrobe 

• Introduce more classic pieces to your wardrobe. 
• Make sure you have a balance of basic and statement pieces in your closet.
• Don't be afraid to splurge on quality accessories like handbags. Find a great everyday genuine leather bag.
• Become trendy and be a trend setter. Do your research on looks for the season and make them your own. 
• Remember- You don't have to break the bank to be stylish. Please stay in your budget.

4) Shoe Check 

• Shoes set the tone for your overall look. So make sure you have some basic black pumps and an array of trendy shoes as well.
• Popular Shoes 2013:
• Ankle strap heels 
• Pointy toe pumps
• Stilettos 
• Single-Sole pumps
• Wedge Sneakers 
• Spiked Shoes (flats/heels)
• Loafers & Smoking Slippers
• Basketball shoes 
• Splurge on a designer shoe. You don't have to spend thousands of dollars on designer. Go to Nordstrom Rack and get designers like Jimmy Choo, Valentino, and Manolo Blahnik for a fraction of the cost.

5) Entourage & Become Social

• Lastly, get a group of your friends to join you in your journey of looking like a socialite. Make sure your friends are just as equally stylish but have their own look.
• Get involved with events in your city and take lots of pictures. 
• But overall, have fun & be yourself.
