I'm not good with fashion. I tend to wear the "wrong" colors together (like a purple shirt with the same exact color shorts, I don't see anything wrong with it personally) and I don't like clothes shopping a lot. I am better at picking things out for other people too. Whenever I have to dress nicely, I always need my mom or somebody else's help because I'm bad at finding out what goes together.

I have always had a terrible sense of fashion. I did try to experiment with cloths, but ended up with red/white checked pants and a striped shirt. Terrible.
I both don't know what matches and how to dress relative to situation/people around me. I also completely lack a feeling of why people want to look the same. This is how I think:
First of all, apparently there is some point on of blending in that I don't get, cause everyone look the same. Also I am kind of not so outgoing, so therefore I think I should blend in. Problem is I cannot identify what the typical things to wear are and how I can vary them without stopping to blend in.
So I go to HM cause its a shop where a lot of people in their 20:s shop. There I can see what is common. I might by second hand items because of environment, money, etc. But at least I know what is typical.
Then I call myself a minimalist, which means I can wear pretty much the same everyday, so I have seven similar tops, three similar cardigans, a couple of skinny jeans, three dresses that all look the same, kind of different colors. No one really cares if you wear similar things. If it gets boring, I think it's safe to vary your outfit with a scarf! :)
