This article is all about 7 things that are making you look cheap
Many style details are so small and subtle that they can make us look cheap without realizing it.
In this article, we’re going to dive into some common and not-so-common little style mistakes that can cheapen your appearance.
7 Things you didn’t know are making you look cheapÂ
The wrong lip color
A bold-colored lipstick can unbalance the rest of your look and make your teeth look yellower.
If you want to look expensive and classy, opt for a classic, neutral lip color such as reddish or pink, especially when wearing heavy eye makeup.
Wearing Multicolor heels
Multicolor shoes are a risky fashion choice that is extremely hard to pull on for multiple reasons
- It’s extremely hard to match with outfits. Even with neutral fits, they don’t look as good or stylish.Â
- It can easily spoil the color balance of the look.Â
- It is not suitable for most occasions, especially formal ones.Â
- Paired with the wrong accessories, it can make you look even cheaper and tacky.Â
If you want to incorporate multicolor garments into your look, the best way to do so is with accessories such as a scarf, belt, or handbag. However, if you want something bolder and dramatic, you can wear a multicolor dress with neutral shoes and accessories.
Sunglasses with a big logo
Sunglasses with a big logo (especially on the front or lens) can completely spoil your summer fit, making it go from cute to overdone and tawdry. They scream ‘New Money’ and will probably be out of style next year, so they’re neither a good fashion choice nor an investment.
There are more suitable places to wear a prominent logo and make a fashion statement rather than sunglasses, such as a handbag and a scarf.
Always opt for sunglasses with a small or no logo (preferably on the side), and avoid sunglasses with big logos, especially those printed on the lens.

Too much jewelry
Too much bling bling can have the opposite effect you’re looking for.
Over-accessorizing doesn’t make one look more expensive; in fact, it is quite the opposite. It’s impractical and far from elegant.
Too many bracelets and necklaces will take all the attention away from your fit while also making you look tawdry.
If you want to show off your gorgeous jewelry pieces, do so one at a time. That way, they can actually shine, elevate your outfit, and make you look effortlessly rich and classy.
Oversized clothes
If you want to look expensive, it’s better to opt for tailored garments with a slightly loose fit rather than an oversized one. It’s more elegant and, believe it or not, more flattering.
It’s no secret that oversized clothes are not exactly elegant and expensive-looking, especially if they’re unstructured. However, in some cases, you can make it work by only wearing one oversized garment per look. That way, you can keep the volume balance of the fit and avoid looking cheap.
AVOID wearing oversized garments head to toe. It’ll make you look extremely cheap, dull, and untidy. It’s best to wear those garments as homewear.
Extremely Long Nails
Extremely long nails are not the best choice (nor practical) if you want to look elegant and expensive.
Even with only a few jewelry pieces, these types of nails can make you look over-accessorized and give a chaotic and tawdry appearance. If you want to go for a clean look, you need to stay away from long nails.
They’re also a big NO for formal and professional events.
Not styling your hair
Not maintaining a well-groomed, styled hair is the first thing that spoils one’s outfit and appearance overall.
Hair styling is an important step many skip, not realizing it is equally or even more important than the makeup routine and outfit choice. It’s not only about combing your hair but also about giving it shape and volume.
Well-styled hair instantly elevates your image and presence in a room. Not to mention, it’s a great confidence boost. It makes you look clean, elegant, and effortlessly chic.
Remember, wearing a cute outfit with messy hair is the formula for a cheap and tacky look.Â
If you are already aware of some of these, then you’re just reading a reminder of how elegant and well-dressed you are.
