How to Become a Fashionizta yourself

One of the biggest industries in our world was brought upon by the underground, and that is the hip hop culture. The hip hop culture has brought many changes and profound things on the urban community, including music and especially clothes. Hip hop clothes paved the way for a new cultural thing. And through constant change in its style and fashion, the hip hop of yesterday became the hip hop generation that we all know today. And so here you are, trying to find out how to become one of those “Fashioniztas” and learn their ways on how to become fashionable.

Well before I tell you what these Fashioniztas wear to become fashionable on the outside, let me first tell you on how to become a Fashionizta on the inside.

Becoming a Fashionizta Essentials

Now before wandering off to buy some of those fashion clothes, you should first know what colors are in and that’ll go with you perfectly. The first tip that I’ll be giving you is on what Color to choose.

With colors, you should focus on modern urban colors. In most major urban areas, such as in New York, its common that you’ll see people walking down the street with sporting almost the same color of clothes, and these colors are black, blue and khaki. Now why would these people choose these colors? Well these types of colors are modern day urban behavior clothing because these colors can be easily mixed and matched with any color and any style. But if you don’t have any idea pertaining to your desired color, then using other sites can provide you with more information about your color.

Now that you know what color you wanted, its time for you to choose your Brand. Choosing the right brand is also important in hip hop fashion. Brands such as the sean john clothing, apple bottoms, house of dereon, and rocawear are some of the most popular brands of hip hop and urban clothes. This is because, urban fashion designers have a sharp awareness of time, so they need a wardrobe that is low maintenance and takes little time to coordinate. That is why these fabrics are popular to urban fashion designer.

Now we all know that these branded clothing lines are very expensive yes, but the internet is huge. There are lots of online clothing shops willing to give you discounts for all of those clothing lines. An example of those sites is Streetzwear.

And so we come to the last essential part of being a Fashionizta, your Attitude. Attitude is everything in the world of fashion. How important? Well you may have the color that you wanted and the latest collection of your brand, but if you don’t know how to show it to them properly, then it’s pointless.

Take up an urban attitude or urban behavior of your own. Urban fashion designers have an ease and sophistication that comes from living in the city. So, when shopping for urban clothing, go for clothes that express this manner. This way, you could really show them your attitude. Remember, clothes and accessories doesn’t make who you are, it’s yourself that makes your personality and your attitude.

The Things on a Fashionizta’s List

Now that you know the essential things that make’s these Fashioniztas tick, it’s for you to learn what clothing preferences these guys usually wears. Now because of the hip hop culture dominating all of the urban community. New and profound clothing lines have showed up and are still known until today. Some of these clothes are as follows:

· T-shirts

· Jeans

· Footwear

· Hoodies

· Jackets

T-Shirts

Now even before the era of hip hop clothes, the T-shirts have been around for years. T-Shirts has really come a very long way, even to this very day. T-shirts are the most common and the most preferable element in hip hop and urban fashion. Although the new style of T-shirts in mainline fashion is more fitted this tie, there really is not that much change on the hip hop scene for men, such as those found in the sean john clothing collections and those of rocawear collections.

Jeans

Jeans are also the preferred choice of many Fashioniztas. The popular type of jeans for the hip hop era styles are those jeans that come just below the knee and are baggy in style, then evolved to include jeans that are loose fitting and that appear almost too long.

The baggy type of pants are the most popular in the hip hop generations, and up until today, these types of pants are still sought for. These baggy pants were firstly made for the use of men, but through constant change and evolution, these types of pants are now made for the women also. This was first popularized by an American rap artist named Missy Elliot in some of her music videos.

The jeans of today have, like the t-shirts, gotten slimmer even for the men. Sexier form of jeans for the women is getting more popular such as those jeans from the Apple Bottoms clothing collections and the House of Dereon. Popular jeans for men are of those of Rocawear and the Sean John Clothing.

Footwear

Basically, when it comes to footwear, the common things that Fashioniztas look for are on sneakers and basketball shoes. Usually, any kind of sneakers can go perfectly well with any type of lower and upper wear. But the most preferred color that these guys’ wants are those of plain, bright white colored sneakers.

Sneakers are commonly paired with baggy pants. For the men, its evisu, sean john, and rocawear which can provide the appropriate pants. And for the women, it’s the apple bottoms clothing collections and the house of dereon.

Hoodies

Now among the many elements of the hip hop fashion, the hoodies are among of the most popular. Hoodies are the loose fitting top that can be worn over a T-shirt and replaces the outer garments which is normally worn with something comfortable and is also the trademark of the hip hop style. Its name, which is Hoody, came from the style itself, having a hood which is sometimes worn over the head.

Some hoodies comes with jazzy colors and some have traditional camouflage colors which make this element as one of the biggest markets then and now. Hoodies are more popular with the younger generations, yet there are also some of the older generations that wear hoodies.

Hoodies are also popular with the children. Themes such as those of Spiderman or Superman are also available for the children. This is to allow the child to individualize in their look within the hip hop range of items available, rather than all looking the same.

Hoodies were primarily made for men, but was now evolved for the use of both the men and the women. Some of the most popular sets of hoodies for women can be found within the collections of the house of dereon and the apple bottoms.

Jackets

Jackets as we all know are worn to combat the cold. But with hip hop fashion, jackets are not only worn on colder climates, but for style. Many leather jackets in hip hop fashion have printed surfaces which also coincide with what they are supporting.

The common styles of a leather jacket zip fronted and soft leather which is much easier to wear. Taking on the same theme as other hip hop clothing as being suitable to fun people looking to party the night away in comfort and style.

Now even though you sport some of those clothes, it is still important that you lay the right kind of clothes for the right occasion and not just simply wearing it. And as I said before, your attitude. Your attitude is very important to pull this off.

How to Properly Wear the Essentials to Become a Fashionizta

So now that you know what these guys wear, its time for you to know how to wear them properly and what brands that goes perfectly with.

For the Upper Wear

· For this, it is important that you choose the right kind of style that will go perfectly with the rest of the look.

· Now here, you could choose to wear a t-shirt or a hoody, or if you want, you could even do it with both.

· But other than a t-shirt or a hoody, there are also other types of upper wear for hip hop fashion that Fashioniztas wear such as polos, polo t-shirts, sweatshirts, and jerseys

· And as I said before, it’s much more preferable to wear branded upper wear such as from the clothing collection of sean john, house of dereon , akademiks, rocawear, meezan, miskeen, makaveli, and many more.

For the Lower Wear

· Here you could freely choose what jeans, pants, or skirts you want to wear.

· Jeans must be paired perfectly with the upper wear.

· If you’re wearing tight upper wear, then it’s much more appropriate to wear little tighter pants.

· This also goes for the women, if you want to wear skirts, then it’s much preferable if you wear a jacket over your t-shirt. This makes the effect of sexiness without the worry of being too much seductive.

· If you want some baggy pants, there are still a lot of branded clothing lines that provide that kind of jeans.

· But if you want the jeans of today, then sean john, house of dereon, akademiks, rocawear, meezan, miskeen, makaveli can provide you with what you want.

For the Foot Wear

· Now much of what I said before, anything goes when choosing the right footwear to wear. But if you want something more specific, then those brightly white colored sneakers can give you that authentic style and feel.

But like I said before, all of these will be pointless if you don’t have the necessary attitude to pull it off. Attitude is everything in the world of the Fashioniztas. It plays the vital role of putting all these styles together like glue, so before you embark on being a Fashionizta yourself, then practice the necessary attitude for it. The more unique your attitude, the more you gain respect in the ever growing streets of the urban community.
