Introduction
We all attend University of Phoenix and we all have to give presentations. Have you ever looked in your closet and wondered, “What the heck am I going to wear?” Well I am going to give you a few tips and hints on how to dress appropriately and successfully for a presentation. Although some of you might not care, and will just throw on whatever, after hearing some of my tips, you might give getting dressed a second thought.
Body
Picking out the perfect outfit can sometimes feel like you are making a life altering decision. Should I wear that top with those pants with those shoes? Well I am here to inform you of some fashion rules to “dress to impress”. Just keep in mind that when picking an outfit, it’s all about you. It’s your style, your personality, your uniqueness. There are only a few basic rules to fashion that will forever change the way you dress. First start off with a central piece of your outfit. The central piece is the unique item your outfit will be based around and it can be anything. The only rule about the central piece is it must be something you really, really like! Next, build around your central piece. Take a look around your closet. Is there anything that will compliment your central piece? Does that teal top look amazing with those grey pants? Lastly, accessorize. This is my favorite step, being the fashionista that I am. Whether you choose the perfect necklace or a stunning shoe, accessories make or break an outfit. You’re now probably wondering, “How do I know if what I have picked works?” If you like it and you feel amazing in it, than it works. What I like to do is if I have an amazing shoe that I am dying to wear, I build my outfit around that. I could go into pattern and colors rules but that would probably take up the whole class time because there is just so much you can do when it comes to putting an outfit together.
