To determine if your outfit looks good, pay attention to how the outfit feels. If you're uncomfortable, it will show. If there's any weirdness in size —like bunching or puckering—it's not the right fit. And if the colors don't suit your skin, you won't look vibrant and healthy.
1) Compliments on your outfit are more weekly than bi-annually. 2) You never have that feeling of being over, under or oddly dressed for any occasion. 3) Your friends tend to ask you where you bought things, and then purchase the exact same thing. 4) You can succinctly describe your style in 3 words.

Some colors stand out, and others blend into the background and we don't notice them quite as much. Red and orange seem to be the clear winner when it comes to eye-catching colors.
Men prefer a woman who can stay calm and relaxed. Beauty is more than make-up and a fancy haircut. Men find women more attractive when they are neat and clean. Men find women who smell nice, who have clean hair and hydrated skin more attractive than a face perfectly covered in makeup.
When it came to women with other hair colours, 29.5% of men preferred blondes and 8.8% of men preferred redheads.
