The latest and greatest thing is the online stylist template, which is also a game. With these you can generate an entire outfit, from top to bottom, simply by dragging and dropping articles into the allocated space for the ensemble you are creating. It is interactive, so you learn whether you have selected the best of the bunch to enhance the overall look, or if you chose poorly in the opinion of designers. However, it does not leave you hanging, should you make a less than stellar combo, it will tell you why another piece works better.
By the time you are done you will have mastered several styles. For example, the first look I tried was the “Girl Meets Boy” one. It had everything put together, like a classic boy blazer, floral print silk button down, tweed shorts, and tan leather accessories. The question being which shoes go best. The options are a black leather flat, a strappy gladiator heel in tan, or an emerald green suede platform.
Wonder what the answer is? Green suede platform wins out. And the game told me exactly why – This outfit was begging for a pop of colour along with a scoop of texture. I had a lot of fun playing, and was pretty impressed with my final score, so I can recommend it.
I am a big fan of this online stylist template and consider myself to be quite the pro.
Wish they had had this around when I was younger, might have been better at creating actual outfits. Though I think I dress well now, I have all too many pics to prove I was clueless for way too long. I guess will find out how stylish I truly am when I go try this out. Uh oh…
