It's uncanny for your style not to change as the years go by, with the change in trends and your own personality. I for one have evolved from a little tom-boy - believe it or not - into a diverse fashion lover.
Not everyone knows this about me, but I enjoy playing football a lot and so my 'style', if you can call it that, from a young age involved several Manchester United soccer tops and jeans. Luckily there's a concept called "style evolution"... I may still be a fan of United but lets just say I don't show my support as much as I used to!
The biggest thing that allowed me to evolve in my dressing was that I no longer listened to what others told me to wear. "You're too pale to wear this colour; You're too short to wear that; You're not busty enough for that look; That shoe is too ugly." Once you stop listening to the opinions of other people who probably need to take a look at their own dressing before they look at others, then only, will you find your true style. I don't believe in colours or styles not suiting a person. If you're confident in what you're wearing I can guarantee that you'll look great! Bare in mind that not sticking to limited styles and colours of clothing DOES NOT mean disregarding your body type. Your body type should be the only factor that changes your mind about your outfit.
My style has changed so much in the past few years that I hardly wear jeans, I love jumpsuits but my absolute favourite items to wear are lady-like skirts and dresses. I wouldn't say I follow trends tremendously but I am influenced by them.
Some trends I can't shy away from at the moment are: 'incorporating sneakers into everyday wear' and 'tailored work wear,' which inspired this outfit post. I suppose I've switched to tailored work wear outfits because I've started working in a more corporate setting, but the nice thing about working in the fashion industry is that there are no limits in terms of what you wear. I'm wearing what I like because I want to.
Shirt: Zara
Pants: Zara

To end off this article, my ultimate style tip to you is: don't limit yourself and you will be amazed.
