1. Chandelier Drop Earrings

If you’re looking to add a little sparkle to your wedding ensemble, it doesn’t get much better than chandelier drop earrings. These beautiful bridal jewelry pieces have been making waves on both red carpets and in bridal publications over the past few years, and they’re sure to be popular in 2022. The key is finding a pair that can be customized to fit your style; if you love unique accessories, consider adding pearls or colored gemstones to these drops. If you’re looking for something more understated, try traditional pearl or diamond drop earrings instead. Both will look gorgeous with whatever dress style you choose!

2. Pearls

Speaking of pearls, they are back! Pearls were all over wedding trends in 2017 and 2018, but by 2022, women will want something with a little more va-va-voom—try out these more modern takes on bridal jewelry such as these Honey & Ice bracelets. Necklaces with colorful gems (think blue topaz, amethyst, and peridot) or even pearls that come with quirky charms like a tassel or heart will work best with your outfit. And don’t forget that simple goes a long way; pair it all with an elegant dress to pull off one of 2019’s biggest bridal trends.

3. Statement Necklaces

In 2022, a simple statement necklace will be a must-have. This piece should fall between your shoulders and mid-chest. A cool piece of jewelry to pair with it would be a minimalist earring or two and perhaps some arm candy that dangles down to about your wrist. Stay away from dangle chandelier earrings because they’ll make you look heavier than you are. Stick with silver as opposed to gold and you won’t go wrong! The cool thing about these pieces is that they can be worn at other events after your wedding day, making them worth their price tag.

4. Hair Clips

There is a reason why hair clips have been around since Roman times. They’re easy to wear, they don’t interfere with your day and they work perfectly with most hairstyles. Hair accessories are always trendy, so it’s no surprise that hair clips will be making a comeback in 2022. And let’s face it: when it comes to bridal styles and fashion trends for weddings, you can never go wrong with sticking to what works. Brides will find some great and unique hair accessories – from clip-on earrings to headbands – at their local jewelry stores. Most of these headpieces will be one of a kind; luckily, everyone can find something that fits her style.

5. Unconventional Statement Pieces

As wedding styles have become more imaginative, so have bridal accessories. If you’re looking for some unconventional pieces that are perfect for any bride, think about pearl sunglasses or trendy tights—creative accessories with a nod to old-school glamor. Even gloves have made a real big comeback. The must-have item for this year’s bride is not really a must-have at all, but pretty much essential for every wardrobe—purses! From Cult Gaia’s pearl clutch to custom bags, brides are now making their purses part of their bridal wear for the reception.

These three elegant accessories will enhance any bridal look and make you feel like a true princess on your big day!

In other words, it is time to restock your summer wardrobe with the trendiest clothing items, including women’s swimwear, t-shirt, sandals, dresses, and sunglasses. If you are a little confused about the latest summer trends, here is our list of the trendiest summer apparel for chic women.

1. A White T-Shirt

We know that a white tee isn’t something you are really looking forward to since it has nothing exciting to offer; however, it remains on the top of the list due to its versatility. The best thing about a white tee is that it can be paired up with anything as it looks great with nearly everything.

It doesn’t matter whether you are pairing the tee with jeans, a skirt, black pants, even a maxi dress; nothing can go wrong with this simple yet versatile summer piece of clothing.

2. Denim Shorts

Summers are hot, and there can nothing go wrong with denim shorts. You can pair the shorts with a studded denim jacket, and you will have the best summer outfit that will make you look like a fashionista babe. The best thing about denim is that it can be worn at any time – it is perfect for the mornings and the evenings. Denim is classy and timeless – and the chic design of the denim and shorts will make you feel and look sexy, comfy, and well-put-together.

Trust us when we tell you that nothing can go wrong with denim shorts, long boots, and a cowboy hat.

3. Summer Sandals

You don’t necessarily have to run around in flip-flops. But, we all know that stinky and sweaty feet are something that we all want to avoid in summer. What is the best way to keep your feet free of sweat? The answer to this question is as simple as sandals. All you need to do is to ditch your pumps and sneakers in favor of two-strap summer sandals.

If you are not a sandal person, you can also opt for slides as these are trending on number one regarding the best summer shoes for this year. Since 2020, things have changed massively in the fashion world. People are now favoring slides as these are comfortable, trendy and allow the wearers to run and go about their errands.

4. White Button-Up Shirt

Another essential summertime clothing piece for women is a white button-up shirt. Similar to its white tee counterpart, this clothing item can be won with a wide variety of dress choices, such as jeans, pants, skirts, capris, and dress pants.

If you feel like getting dressed up for some random occasion without overdressing, there is no better way to do it than adding a touch of chic, glamor, and polish to a casual outfit. Besides, many fashion gurus agree that there is no better way of boosting and emphasizing that summer tan of yours than dressing up with a white button-up summer shirt.

5. A Pair of Boyfriend Jeans

Although skinny jeans are still in style, these are kind of a thing for the winters rather than the summers. If you want to obtain the perfect summer look by wearing the perfect jeans, you can do well with a pair of boyfriend jeans.

Besides being the perfect summer staple, a pair of boyfriend jeans will boost your sense of style, comfort, and class while tuning up your sense of summer vibe. However, for the perfect summer vibe, we recommend opting for the lighter tones of blue instead of the darker shades of black that are perfect for winters.

6. Summer Tote

When summer hits the globe, it isn’t only about fashion but also about all the other summer essentials that you have to carry with you at all times. We are talking about a water bottle (to stay hydrated), sunscreen lotion, goggles, a wallet, and perhaps a book to read on the beach.

A summer tote also looks chic on the beach, on a shopping spree, and anywhere while you are running your errands. You have a wide variety of tote styles and colors to choose from; there is one for everyone at your local stores and online markets.

7. White Sneakers

If you are looking for the perfect touch for your summer wardrobe upgrade, you cannot avoid white sneakers, as these are an absolute must-have for anyone who wants to look chic, cool, and trendy this summer. With the perfect pair of white sneakers, your feet will feel fresh and clean.

White sneakers can be paired with nearly any clothing item, such as jeans, a skirt, a breezy summer dress, you name it. White sneakers are sheer perfection for all minimalists who don’t want to go out of style and out of fashion on lazy weekends and busy weekdays.

8. Straw Hat

Let us be honest – we love vintage fashion items, including a straw hat. This summer, the straw hat protects you from the blazing sun and makes you look stylish, trendy, chic, and classic. The best thing about the summer hat is that it goes well with most summer clothing, styles, and fashion sense.

It doesn’t matter whether you want to go grocery shopping, have a day out with the girls, or plan a picnic party with your loved ones at the beach; the summer heat is the perfect and must-have accessory this summer. Besides, the straw hat also induces the perfect finishing touch for this summer and allows you to have the perfect summer look.

Don’t forget to pair the straw hat with matching summer sandals and a stylish crossbody bag of the color of your choice.

Functional vs Fashionable Face Masks

While face masks are starting to be seen as a fashion accessory, we must also not forget that we’re still in the midst of a global pandemic. As a result, face masks still have a highly functional role to play when it comes to keeping ourselves and those around us safe. It’s also important to remember that face masks aren’t designed to be an impenetrable barrier, but rather just slow the spread via droplets. Nobody is asking you to do your daily errands in a full hazmat suit, just make a few extra considerations when it comes to wearing a mask. Simple things like making sure it fits snug against your face and is at least 3-ply of fabric. As an example, have a look here at how Hoo-Rag is able to seamlessly blend the functional vs fashionable elements of face masks.

Will this fashion trend last?

Well that’s the $64,000 question, isn’t it? Thankfully, we’re finally starting to see developed countries starting to get on top of COVID-19 thanks to the development of vaccines. But if we’re being honest, the virus isn’t going to magically disappear overnight. We as a society must continue to be vigilant in our battle to not only keep ourselves safe but our more vulnerable loved ones and members of our community safe too. One of the simplest and most effective ways to do the right thing is to continue wearing face masks in public, indoor spaces. With that in mind, it’s probably safe to say that face masks as a trending fashion accessory is here to stay. What’s going to change however, is the most sought after patterns, styles, and how they will incorporate with other accessories throughout the seasons.

Matching your face mask to your outfit

When it comes to matching your face mask to your outfit, there are a few simple things you need to take into account:

• Color palettes: Matching colors is probably the simplest way you can fit your face mask into your overall look.  Match colors or choose fun color combinations that match your clothes, shoes, hats, or other accessories.
• Patterns: Patterns can be matched in the same way colors can.  Go a step deeper and match slogans on your clothes to a slogan on your mask.  The possibilities are endless.
• Matching or contrasting: Whether you choose to match or contrast your face mask to your overall look is entirely up to you.  White masks with black clothes are a simple contrast popular on the streets of New York this year.

But the thing about trending fashion is that it’s always changing and evolving.

So all that’s left to answer is one final question: Are you going to be a trend follower or a trendsetter?

Although high-quality clothes generally tend to be more expensive, they actually end up costing you less over time as these quality garments will rarely need to be replaced. That, coupled with the added bonus that you’ll be looking stylish round the clock, breaking out of the fast fashion game becomes a genuine no-brainer.

It can be hard to know what to purchase, but with the right research, your wardrobe will never look better. Read on for a few suggestions on how you can start truly investing in your wardrobe rather than being a passive consumer in the realm of fast fashion.

Classic Designer Handbags

Designer handbags and other accessories are a great place to start. Goods like Prada bags and Burberry scarves are pieces that you will not only be able to tout for years but they are also guaranteed to retain their value over time. Many industry leaders in the world of fashion consider handbags to not only be a great fashion accessory but also often a better investment than art. Certain classics not only retain their worth but can actually increase in value over time, meaning that you can sell your acquired pieces for a considerable profit if you ever grow tired of them.

Not all bags are created equally, however. You want to look for classic designer pieces, like the Chanel boy bag, Louis Vuitton Neverfull bag, or (if you really have money to burn) a Hermès Birkin. If you’re not interested in making a profit, staple bags like the Gucci Dionysus or the Balenciaga city bag might not increase in value, but they do retain their initial worth.

Perhaps even more importantly, classic designer handbags are typically crafted from high-quality materials, so the bag you buy tomorrow could even end up being passed down to your grandchildren.

High-Quality Shoes

You wear shoes every day, and you want your shoes to carry you through everything your day throws at you, so it’s important to invest in pairs that won’t fall apart. It’s worth noting, however, that shoes do come in a wide range of styles.

It’s a good idea to have a pair of real leather boots in your arsenal, as well as a pair of sneakers that are comfortable and can handle being worn for long distances. Whilst you want to make sure that any sneakers you purchase are practical and well-made to ensure that they can be worn for months on end, certain pairs of sneakers can also prove themselves to be just as much of an investment piece as designer bags. The secondary market for sneakers is currently booming, so you can protect your feet and even earn some money along the way.

Be sure to always do some independent research if you find a pair of shoes that catches your eye, just to ensure they are crafted from quality materials that will stand the test of time.

Outerwear

As your first line of defense against the elements, coats, blazers, and jackets are other items that you should never skimp on. If you invest in timeless coat or jacket styles like big trenches and stylish leather jackets, your chosen outerwear can also be reworn season after season.

Most outerwear can also be styled in a myriad of different ways, so investing in quality coats or jackets can ensure your wardrobe stays adaptable. For instance, neutral outwear can be paired with your entire wardrobe, whereas bright-colored outwear can add a pop of color to an otherwise beige ensemble. It’s all about knowing just how to make your pieces pop.

In order to ensure that your outerwear will last you years, be sure to always invest in high-quality pieces wherever possible. It’s also worth investing in some essentials, like the aforementioned leather jacket, as well as an elegant black blazer, thick wool coat, and other outerwear that transcends trends.

LBD

We all know how tricky it can be to rewear clothes that were once worn to big events, especially if photos of you attending that event are plastered all over social media. With a favorite ‘little black dress’, however, your formal look can always appear sleek and fresh, allowing you to rewear this stylish fit to your heart’s content.

The drawing card of the LBD is its versatility – think of the dress as a canvas for your creative styling. Different accessories, shoes, outerwear, and of course, hair and makeup can completely transform the look of that same LBD you’ve already worn three times. For this reason and more, it’s well worth investing in a dress you love, as well as one you feel comfortable in, to ensure that you’re always black-tie ready.

It’s clear to see why all of these pieces are widely seen as ‘wardrobe essentials’. Their versatility, coupled with their potential longevity of use, make them all sound investments for any fashion-conscious citizen.

Be sure to take your time acquiring these essential pieces, and conduct your own independent research, to ensure that all of your new investments align with your personal style and taste.

Ready to learn how to style headbands for daytime and nighttime wear? We’re giving you all of our favorite tips below.

Keeping Your Headband in Place All Day

Before we get to headband hairstyles, you’re probably thinking: “How am I supposed to keep my headband from slipping off every few minutes?” Luckily, there are a few simple hacks that can help you secure your look:

• Use bobby pins to hold fabric bands or slim headbands in place. Disguise the pins by tucking them into the hair behind your ears.
• Avoid headbands with an uncomfortable fit. Does it pinch in some spots while feeling loose in others? Not only will this fit be annoying to deal with all day, but it’s likely to slip around.
• Use a slim headband with a grippy texture beneath a larger fabric headband to keep them both from sliding off.
• Add a bit of hairspray, pomade, or another texturizer to your hair before putting on your headband. You don’t need to apply the product all over – stick to the spot where your headband will sit for a little extra staying power.

Headbands to Take You from Work to Working Out

Have a workout class in the evening and not much time after work to get ready for it? Headbands are the perfect solution. In the morning, sweep hair away from your face with a stretchy, fabric headband, but keep your hair down for a cute, professional look. When it’s time to head to the gym, pull your loose locks into a bun or ponytail and adjust your headband to ensure it’s still comfortable. This is a great way to get your hair off your neck and keep it out of your face!

Easy Hairstyles for All of Your Summer Plans

Is your summer schedule packed to the brim? Look stylish from mornings on the sand to evenings out on the town with one simple hair accessory. Start with a messy bun to keep your hair off your neck during the warmest hours of the day. Then, add a comfy headband in your favorite color or print. When the sun goes down, and it’s time to dress up, swap your bun for a chic chignon or loose, beachy waves. Pull a few strands out of the headband to frame your face, and you have an Instagram-worthy summer look!

How to Style Headbands with Short Hair

Rocking a pixie cut or lob? Headbands look amazing with short hair, too! The key is choosing bands that won’t overpower your locks. For example, simple, slim headbands add an elegant touch to short hair. Plus, they’re casual enough to wear for daytime activities like errands, working at the office, and more. For the evening, go for a glam look with velvet fabrics or sparkly jewels.

Using Scarves as Headbands

If you’ve yet to invest in a trendy headband, you can still achieve the same look with a small, lightweight scarf. Just like headbands, these accessories come in so many fun patterns and colors, so you’re sure to find one that matches your outfit. Plus, they’re super easy to style; all you have to do is place them over your head where you would put a headband, then tie the ends at the nape of your neck. Leave your hair down, pull it into a messy bun, or create a stylish bubble pony – the options are nearly endless!

You can also get creative by tying your scarf into different twists and knots. A simple knot at the top of the headband creates a classy yet casual look, while bows are perfect for days when you want to be a little more girly.

Style from Sunrise to Sunset

When you’ve got a full schedule, you don’t have time to deal with complicated hairstyles. Luckily, headbands can help you look polished all day and only take a few seconds to style. Ready to rock this trending accessory for yourself? We can’t wait to see what looks you create!

All About Knitting Facts

While crocheting and knitting are highly popular activities, not much is known about their history or background. Let’s change that and divulge deeper into the knitting history and learn some interesting facts about crocheting.

Not many know that knitting is literally derived from the word knot. Yes, it is knotting that gave rise to an art that was to change to the face of fashion and trade. Life would never be the same again.

History Of Knitting:

Perhaps one of the most interesting knitting facts is that no one really knows how old it really is. Sounds incredible, doesn’t it? It is widely believed that knitting is older compared to crocheting but younger than weaving, but not much is known about the exact time of origin in the history of knitting.

When people tried to find more interesting facts about knitting, it was revealed that the ancient textile fragments that were initially thought to be knitting machines were actually nålebinding. Nålebinding refers to an ancient form of needlecraft that is also called single-needle knitting at times.

There’s a reason that much isn’t known about the history of knitting. One of the yarn fun facts is responsible for this. Fabrics typically used for knitting, including silk, wool, and similar other fibers, decay rapidly. If that wasn’t enough, distinguishing knitting needles from other sharpened sticks like spindles and hair picks is challenging. So uncovering knitting facts about its history is indeed a tricky road.

Is Knitting A Recent Invention?

Many historians have proposed that knitting is, in fact, a recent invention. After all, there is no evidence of ancient legends being pro at knitting, weaving, or spinning. Since we don’t know of any ancient gods and goddesses who knit, it’s quite likely that the activity is a relatively new one.

Earliest Types Of Knitting

As we go back to find fun facts about knitting, it’s revealed that the earliest known types of knitting were by nomadic people. These people from the desert places of North Africa used oval wooden frames for the purpose, and their knitting action was quite similar to bobbin work. Of course, historians can’t really confirm when these frames were replaced by hooked knitting needles and the reason behind the change.

The earliest known knitting examples were a pair of cotton socks discovered in Egypt in the first millennium. These were formed by pulling loops through loops on two sticks.

Moving on from history, want to know some really cool knitting facts? For centuries, knitting was, in fact, considered to be an occupation meant mainly for males. Indeed, no women were allowed in the first knitting union established in 1527 in Paris. Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? Especially since how far we have come in that area wherein now knitting is mainly associated with females.

Knitting Machines:

So what’s the history of knitting machines? When did we evolve from using only needles to relying on machines to spin yarn? Indeed, when the knitting machine was invented in 1589, hand knitting quickly became nonessential. That’s the reason it’s now viewed as a leisurely activity instead of a necessity.

William Lee is the man behind the invention of the knitting machine. He was a clergyman, and it was primarily due to his invention that knitting became an indispensable part of guild-organized cottage industries. However, it wasn’t before 1864 that the full-fashioned knitting machine was invented by William Cotton of Leicestershire, England.

So what did the ancient people use for knitting before the invention of the latest needles and machines? Initially, knitting needles were made from tortoiseshell, ivory, and even bone.

Knitting Records:

Here are some remarkable knitting facts related to speed. The fastest knitter in the world is Miriam Tegels. She hails from the Netherlands and merely takes a minute to stitch 118 stitches. Yes, you read that right. This isn’t all. Linda Benne is the speed-knitting champ for the past ten years as she can knit as many as 253 stitches in only three minutes. Sounds incredulous, doesn’t it?

David Babcock made his entry to the Guinness world record by finishing the Kansas City marathon in 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 27 seconds. How is it a part of knitting facts? He ran this marathon while knitting a scarf 12 feet, 1 3/4 inches long.

Want to know some cool facts about knitting? Queen Victoria was a prolific knitter until her demise. Indeed, it was primarily during her reign that knitting and other types of handworks developed the most.

Even today, when knitting is mostly a leisurely activity, we have many famous knitters who love to indulge in it. These include the likes of Julia Roberts, Julianna Margulies, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cameron Diaz, and so many more.

Another interesting knitting fact that most don’t know is that the record for most people knitting at the same time was made in 2021 in Royal Albert Hall in London. During this, 3083 people indulged in knitting simultaneously for up to 15 minutes.

Let’s now shed some light on interesting facts about knitting related to its therapeutic effects. You can burn as many as 55 calories in half an hour by knitting. Yes, knitting isn’t just good for your mind but your health too.

Knitting works as a natural antidepressant. Indeed, it can help people deal with depression, anxiety, and chronic pain. If that wasn’t enough, it even protects the brain from aging signs. It soothes your spirits and helps you relax.

Final Words – Delve Deeper Into The Knitting Facts

So now you realize that when you thought you knew all about knitting, how mistaken you were. Indeed, there’s so much more to it. We have just given you a few glimpses of the fun facts of knitting. There’s so much to know, and Fillory Yarn is one place that can enable you to really grasp the essence of knitting.

Be Stylish and Fashionable

Whatever your fashion preferences, some fashion trends, and items are just timeless. So, if you want to rock a stylish yet timeless outfit, this post covers some of the options that never go out of style. You can have them in your wardrobe, and they’ll serve you for a long time.

What accessories you are wearing and how well you are matching them with your clothing is what people notice these days. Your footwear, handbag, jewelry, and even more so your glasses, everything counts to complete your look.

I believe that fashion is different from style. For example, fashion is knowing that transparent frames are in trend whereas style is more personal and includes your fashion preference.

Your glasses are a significant element in determining your sense of styling. In this article, I have talked about some basic tactics to help you match your outfit with your eyeglasses.

Before you buy your next pair of glasses, here is what you should be taking into consideration:

Know your Skin Undertone

The undertone of your skin is different from what it appears to be from the outside. I know you would say that you can’t see the inside of your skin, but you can identify it. Let me tell you how. Expose your wrist veins in the daylight and notice the color. Do they appear greenish or olive green? Or are they more blueish or slightly purplish in character? If you said green, you have a warm undertone and if you said blue, you have a cool undertone.

For a warm undertone, pick golden, warm, and more earthy shades like blue, brown, and black to suit your skin. For a cool skin undertone, play with frame colors like silver, gray, green, or maybe even transparent.

Assess your Wardrobe

Before you decide to buy your next pair of women’s glasses, doing a quick wardrobe revaluation can help. We all have a favorite color that we like to wear often. Knowing which color outfits you have the most, you can buy eyewear with a different color to add contrast to your monotonous look. Wardrobe revaluation is useful if you want to buy glasses that go with your every outfit. If you have a vision problem, you must be having at least one pair of eyeglasses. We have that one frame for ages and wear it with every outfit. But there is a wide range of designs, colors, and shapes in glasses today. If you haven’t changed your eyewear in a while, it is high time to do it. Buy glasses that are more in trend and go with your outfits. however, if you can’t get enough eyewear, you can have different frame colors to experiment with your look, and who knows, you might be the next style icon.

Do not Undermine Accessories

After your clothes, what people notice the most about you is your accessories. If you are carrying your outfit with gold or silver jewelry, pick the frames of similar color to create a parallel look. If your accessories are more on the funkier side, try out some bold colored frames to complete your look.

How often do you change your glasses?

You can also own multiple pairs for more styling options. If you worry about the cost, you can find good-quality glasses online so that you can keep up with the trend without breaking your bank.

What’s your style?

Your style should not only reflect your fashion sense but also the inner you. What you are putting on should enhance your personality rather than overpower it. Identifying your style is a must if you want to take your personality to another level and stand out from the crowd. I assure you, following your personal style is always better than following a trend.

Know the occasion

Styling needs are different for every occasion. You wouldn’t want to walk into a fun party giving out a professional appeal. Having rectangular men’s glasses for office meetings, transparent ones for date night, and oversized frames for parties will make every occasion better for you.

After we have talked about all the points you must consider while buying glasses, you must be thinking ‘how can I afford the cost of different pairs’? Don’t worry. With many companies selling fashionable eyeglasses at affordable prices, you can bring life to your outfits. Do not just settle for a single frame. Have different ones for different moods and occasions to perfectly define your style.

As a man or woman, making a statement and a lasting first impression on people is vital to selling yourself as on top of your game and is the key to personal success.

Whether it’s to that next job interview or wooing that special person, a good perfume can mean the difference between a boring and extraordinary entrance. However, with practically millions of perfume brands out there, choosing the right one that suits your personality can be challenging.

So how do you choose the right perfume that will be an extension of your aura and charisma?

Whether you have been using fragrances for a long time or are a first-timer, we cover some guidelines and professional tips here to help you find that scent made just for you.

1. Pick Your Budget

Perfumes are considered luxury items and can get very pricey. They can start from as low as $15 to hundreds of dollars. The most expensive perfume Creed Aventus goes for $350 to $500 on Amazon.

What’s more? Most big perfume stores have very convincing attendants who will go to almost any extent to convince you to spend as much as possible. After all, they were paid to do so.

You want to decide how much to spend beforehand.

If you are not confident in your resolve, you can stay safe by taking the exact amount of money you have budgeted to the store and leave your credit cards and any extra cash at home.

Decide on how much you want to spend before you start your search, and stick with it!

2. Find Your scent, or Perhaps Stick with it

Experts suggest that most people already have scent categories they naturally gravitate to. A lot of times this happens unconsciously but will a little effort, you can pinpoint what ticks with you.

If you already use perfumes and have one you like, it’s always a good idea to find the notes in it and opt for another one in the same fragrance category. Every perfume has a ‘note’ that comes in three distinct layers; the top, middle and base notes. These three layers work in harmony to give the characteristic scent of the perfume.

Look at what you currently have and go for something with similar note constituents. If you, however, want to try out something completely new, think of going for perfume in the same fragrance category.

Some popular fragrance categories include Citrus, floral, oriental and woodsy scents.

3. Choose the Concentration Category

After you have found a scent you like, the next thing will be to choose the perfume concentration. More concentrated perfumes contain more perfume and less alcohol. Fragrances generally get more expensive as the concentration increases and last longer too.

Let’s have a look at the four fragrances types based on perfume concentration.

The first and most concentrated is perfume or parfum (short for Extrait de parfum). A fragrance of this concentration will last you throughout the day and linger on fabric for a few days. Parfum is ideal for people with irritable skin as it contains the least concentration of alcohol in the fragrance types.

The second highest concentrated fragrance is Eau de parfum. This will usually last for five to six hours upon application. Even though it contains more alcohol than parfum, it is still ideal for sensitive skin types and daily wear.

The third level of fragrances is eau de toilette. This has a lower perfume concentration than Eau de parfum and is cheaper. It lasts for two to three hours. Many consider it to be the ideal perfume for the day and Eau de parfum for the night.

The least concentrated and fourth fragrance type is Eau de cologne. It has the least perfume and the highest alcohol concentration. It lasts for one to two hours after application. It is also the cheapest and usually comes in bigger bottles than the other fragrance types.

4. Choosing the Product

Now you have decided on a budget and the fragrance concentration and headed to the grocery store. You have picked two or three different fragrances that appeal to you. So how do you choose between them?

Find the Notes

The first thing to do is identify their notes. Spray them lightly on a handkerchief or on the inside of the bottle cap. The scent you get when you sniff it is the alcohol-dominated top note.

Now leave it so the alcohol can evaporate and go do something else. Take another sniff after say thirty minutes. This new scent comprises the base notes and is the real ‘juice’ of the fragrance. Go for the base note you find most appealing.

5. Test the Fragrance

After you choose a product, you want to test it out before buying it. Humans like many animals secret chemicals on the skin called pheromones. A particular perfume will mix with the pheromones of each individual to produce a distinct scent.

So it is important that the perfume you pick is compatible with your pheromones and body oils to give off the magical scent you want.

Many perfume shops offer free testing samples before purchase. Try one on and go about your daily activity. Note comments from friends, but most of all, trust your gut.

6. Professional Tips to Choosing the Right Perfume

Consider perfumes made by your favorite clothing brands:

Many clothing brands have a perfume line and use them as the finishing touch for their clothing products. If you have a clothing brand you especially like, chances are you might also like their perfumes.

Early to sniff:

When you wake up in the morning, your sense of smell is enhanced. So it’s a good idea to sniff your test perfumes before you become bombarded with the smells of the outside world.

In the End

Choosing the right perfume can be challenging, but with a little effort on your part, you can find the process educative and fun.

Nothing beats the testing phase as it is the sure-fire way to determine how a perfume will smell on you. For whatever product you choose, always remember to stay on budget.

In the end, go for the fragrance you just couldn’t help but keep sniffing.
