 Nearly all outfits are based on one particular idea the wearer has in his/her mind. Such ideas could be something as specific as "I want to look like a gopnik" or something much more abstract like "I want to make an outfit that has a tight silhouette which slowly extends into a heavy silhouette into the bottom and use color/texture to help guide the viewers eyes." By this thought, outfits should be evaluated by how they translate this mental idea into a visual outfit. Not all ideas, however, are consciously decided by the wearer and more often than not they do this almost subconsciously. However, consciously decided or not, these ideas are usually implicitly hinted at by how the different elements of an outfit work together. A keen visual eye is needed in order to decipher how these work together and once deciphered an outfit can then be evaluated in its own terms. If one particular element does not help push forward this idea the wearer has in his/her mind, then it is bad in that regard. Conversely, outfits that are good are outfits that are unified - where each and every element works to push that certain mental idea. When this unity is achieved, nothing in the outfit seems superfluous and everything works together to deliver this tightly packaged visual experience. Building outfits is as much of an art as is painting. The only difference is that building outfits is a necessity for every living person.

−	The number one thing to develop personal style is going to stores or places in real life that have clothes and trying them on. Honestly ~~thats~~ how you learn to dress well, see what works with your body and find your style. You don't learn how to compose cool outfits by browsing tumblr, you learn by experimenting with what works and what ~~doesnt~~ in real life.	+	The number one thing to develop personal style is going to stores or places in real life that have clothes and trying them on.

-. But if you're going to post a fit in a WAYWT, '''take a decent photo'''. It doesn't matter if it's full-body or a series of detailed closeups that covers everything, but at least make sure we can actually see what the hell you're wearing.  Low light, fuzzy pictures, and dirty mirrors all suck.
