If you're still unsure about what to plan for this year, we're here to add a touch of color to your plans. Make the most of your free time during quarantine and think about what you'd like to explore. Here's a list of 15 promises for those who can't imagine their life without fashion.
Do a Detox
If you've decided to cleanse and reset your body, this should be at the top of your to-do list. Give your body a break and switch to vegetable salads and smoothies for at least one day.
Visit the Fashion Capitals of the World and Explore Fashion-Related Attractions
Traveling is not just an excellent way to recharge; it's also an opportunity to delve deeper into the world of fashion. Whether you want to visit Yves Saint Laurent's house in Morocco or hunt for vintage pieces from renowned designers in lesser-known boutiques, the choice is yours. However, Paris, Milan, London, and New York should be on every fashion enthusiast's list of must-visit cities.
Embrace Sustainability
Sustainability has become a significant trend in recent years, drawing even those who once dismissed eco-friendly practices as a passing fad. Brands like Stella McCartney, Adidas, H&M, Everlane, Patagonia, Ksenia Schnaider, and others are approaching fashion with a focus on conscious consumption. Dedicate a few months to responsible environmental practices: sort your trash, avoid fast fashion, and use water and electricity wisely.
Learn to Vogue
Break away from your routine with something original and unexpected. If skydiving isn't your thing, consider signing up for a Vogue dance class and groove to Madonna's iconic song of the same name with your friends. It's sure to put you in a good mood.
Read Biographies of Great Couturiers and Explore Fashion House Histories
Growth in any field requires continuous learning. If you want to delve deeper into fashion beyond what's covered in glossy magazines, visit a bookstore or explore e-books. Read about the influential figures in the fashion industry who have shaped its history.
Try the Most Trendy Item of the Season, Even if It's Bold
Sometimes stepping out of your comfort zone and trying something unconventional can be rewarding. In the world of fashion, embrace the boldest trends of the upcoming season and choose something you wouldn't typically wear. Whether it's bikinis, an animalistic total look, or Balenciaga-style boots, the choice is yours.
Explore Alternative Fashion Magazines
If you're tired of the standard women's glossies, visit bookstores or magazine shops to discover interesting foreign editions. Explore retro magazines or exclusive issues filled with breathtaking photo shoots by iconic photographers.
Reduce Your Time on Social Media
It's astonishing how much time many people spend on social media—hours or even whole days. Some use it for messaging friends and colleagues, others for work, and some simply scroll through their feeds to pass the time. It's crucial to realize that limiting your social media usage can be beneficial. You can do this independently or use special applications that set time limits.
Try a Celebrity Diet Plan
Admire Victoria Beckham's figure and want to eat like her to look just as spectacular? The new year is the perfect time to make dietary changes. Keep in mind that it takes at least two weeks for your body to adapt to a new diet.
Embrace Sunglasses
Ever wondered why icons like Anna Wintour or Karl Lagerfeld always wear sunglasses, even indoors? Want to channel their style? Try wearing sunglasses throughout the day!
Purchase an Outfit from a Ukrainian Designer
Ukraine produces a wealth of high-quality and creatively designed clothing. Take a closer look and purchase a staple piece from a Ukrainian brand that you'll wear regularly—whether it's jeans from Litkovskaya or a cap from Ruslan Baginskiy.
Curate a Capsule Wardrobe
Often, we impulsively purchase items we like without much thought. However, creating a capsule wardrobe is essential to crafting your unique style. Invest in timeless pieces like a white T-shirt, jeans, a classic coat, blazer, leather jacket, black heels, and boots. Then, complement them with interesting accessories and items that reflect your personality.
Transform into a Style Icon
Have you longed to feel like Rihanna or Grace Kelly? What's holding you back? Choose your favorite style icon and turn heads as you experiment with their iconic looks.
Watch the Most Stylish Movies for Inspiration
Rewatch classics like "The Devil Wears Prada," "Breakfast at Tiffany's," or "Clueless." If you're craving something new, explore our recommendations for the most stylish movies.
Learn to Draw and Study Art History
Art serves as a vital source of inspiration for fashion collections. Designers often incorporate color palettes and prints inspired by famous artists' paintings into their works. Become an artist for a while and create your own unique style."
