6 MISTAKES YOU SHOULD NOT MAKE WHEN IT COMES TO DAILY FASHION!
1. Wearing/buying fake -
Firstly you have to understand that there are certain stuff which you can afford and can be comfortable in it and you have not to flex anything which is not your forte.
It is a fact and no one can deny it that designers and high fashion brands are a status symbol and when you buy fake products of brands like LV or GUCCI then it's clear that you are not doing it for fashion, you want to send a message to the people that you got that and the worst part is when someone has a piece of sound knowledge and can make a difference between the genuine and fake then the situation becomes very embarrassing and sets a negative impact.

One should pay focus on what he/she can afford and how to make the most out of it and how to carry it. You have to develop your sense of fashion and not get dependent on high Fashion brands.
Another major concern is that this buying of fake products provides support to the markets and resellers who are involved in manufacturing the copies, which is not healthy for the field of fashion. As they use cheaper materials and methods to manufacture which ends up in producing hazardous waste which pollutes the environment.
Fast fashion is something which we have to leave for a lifetime, this chain of producing the catwalk trends at a higher pace in a huge quantity with low-quality material is eating up the environment.
The top 8 environmental impacts of fast fashion are-
1. Use of toxic chemicals
2. Water contamination
3. Non-biodegradable polyester
4. Water crisis
5. Landfills, landfills and landfills
6. Unethical treatment of factory workers
7. Animal livestock damage for fashion
8. Carbon footprint
2. Sagging pants -
This was honestly one of the top trends of 2018,19 but we are now in the new decade and at least for now this trend is not gonna make comeback for a while.
You have to pull up your pants and get yourself a chance to show off the hard -work you did on the squats rack in the gym.

A pant that is not sagging and has a proper fit can elevate your overall outfit and also provides a structure to your bottom portion.
If someone says 2021 is about the return of dad-style fashion then I will not deny, dad jeans can be your thing this year they are super comfortable and has a well-designed structure, and can go with any type of topwear.
3. Mismatched clothing-
This is one of the most common mistakes that almost everyone makes in their life, people wear clothes going opposite to each other, what I am trying to say is your topwear and bottomwear should match each other, it should complement each other and here I am not specifically talking bout colours. Wearing shorts on a formal blazer can be a cool look but in 2012, we are in 2021 you have to grab some neutrals, so that you can go to your wardrobe and can pick any two pieces with a blindfold and then also make a brilliant outfit.
Now the question arises,
What are neutral clothes?
In fashion, neutral colours are considered to be those that lack any or have a small amount of colour. those are black, white, grey, brown, and navy. all of these colours except black have different shades.

4. Half tucked shirts -
A half-tucked shirt or a shirt not properly tucked in sets a very unprofessional image and sends a message of a non-organised person it shows that you are no bothered about your clothing.
To fix these you can use the basic military tuck, what you have to do is simply fold Back the excess fabric from both the side around your waist and tuck in it will provide you with a nice V-tapered look and also looks very clean and Professional.
5. Showing undershirt -
TThis another very common mistake that may people do without even knowing that it is ruining their outfit, it is totally fine if you have a sweaty body and you want to wear an undershirt but you have to make sure that the shirt is a modern-day undershirt which has aV-neck so that you can button down a bit still hiding the undershirt.
