Today, it is common for fast-fashion retailers to bring in new products multiple times in a single week to stay on-trend<em>.</em></p><h3 id="breaking-down-fast-fashion">Breaking Down Fast Fashion</h3><p>Fast fashion is made possible by advancements in supply chain management (SCM) among fashion retailers. Its goal is to quickly produce an item that is both cost- effective and responds to fast-shifting consumer demands. The assumption is that consumers need a high-fashion styled piece of clothing at a low price. Fast fashion stays on the concept of category management, which more closely links the manufacturer with the consumer in a mutually beneficial relationship. The speed at which fast fashion take place, requirement of such collaboration as the need to refine and accelerate supply chain processes is paramount.

Some assert that such disposable fashion adds up to pollution, poor workmanship and poor working conditions in developing countries. The trend has also been condemned on intellectual property grounds, with some designers alleging that their designs have been illegally mass-produced by retailers.</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Pro Tips For Creating Mood Boards]]></title><description><![CDATA[Whether you’re writing an article or designing a catalog, a mood board is one of the tried-and-tested methods that is often underrated, but has the great power to get your creative juices flowing.]]></description><link>https://blog.aarida.com/pro-tips-for-creating-mood-boards/</link><guid isPermaLink="false">5c2fa3fdf56ae30d1f9a1249</guid><category><![CDATA[Style Board]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Salman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 04 Jan 2019 18:34:49 GMT</pubDate><media:content url="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1475332340095-a12d7b5a7fdc?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" medium="image"/><content:encoded><![CDATA[<img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1475332340095-a12d7b5a7fdc?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&q=80&fm=jpg&crop=entropy&cs=tinysrgb&w=1080&fit=max&ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" alt="Pro Tips For Creating Mood Boards"><p>Feeling uninspired?

You just need to keep an active eye for your surrounds and you will be startled by how much interesting frames your sight could catch.

Knowing how to treat the different types of fabric in your wardrobe can help keep clothes sustain. Go after these instructions to learn how to launder, dry, and iron common garment fabrics.</p><blockquote><em>Always read the garment's sewn-in care label before proceeding further.</em></blockquote><h3 id="common-fabrics-their-care">Common Fabrics &amp; Their Care</h3><p><strong>Cashmere:</strong> Check the care label before washing the cashmere. To hand-wash, use a light detergent or shampoo. Gently squash the water through the garment, then rinse until the water runs clear. Don’t wring or twist. Squeeze out the spare water. To dry, lay it flat on a towel, aloof from sunlight or heat. </p><p><strong>Cotton:</strong> Cotton holds up well to home washing. Take out the garment from the dryer quickly to reduce wrinkling.</p><p><strong>Cotton blend:</strong> Dry cotton-blend garments using your dryer's permanent-press or low-heat cycle, and take off without delay to reduce wrinkling. Touch up with a steam iron; starch for a proficiently laundered look.</p><p><strong>Linen: </strong>Most linen clothes need to be dry-cleaned or hand-washed. Specifically follow the directions on the care label. To touch up or press, use a steam iron on a linen setting for a hard look.</p><p><strong>Nylon:</strong> Machine-wash nylon garments in lukewarm water. Use a low-temperature setting for tumble-drying, and include a dryer sheet to reduce static electricity. Use a warm iron to press, if necessary.</p><p><strong>Polyester:</strong> Read the label. Generally polyester items can be machine-washed (cool) and dried (low). Check the label if air-drying is recommended. Retouch with a cool -- never hot -- iron, if necessary.</p><p><strong>Silk: </strong>Dry cleaning could also be needed. Some silks are hand- or machine-washable. Don’t dry silk in a (clothes) dryer. Garments look best when professionally dry-cleaned.</p><p><strong>Wool knit:</strong> Generally wool knits need to be dry-cleaned, however it is recommended to check the label. Use cool water and a detergent for fine washables if the garment is hand-washable. Squeeze out excess water, then reshape and dry flat.</p><p><strong>Wool (lined): </strong>Lined clothes typically look best when professionally dry-cleaned once a season. Between dry cleanings, take off surface soil with a brush or moist cloth. Refresh the item by hanging it from a soft hanger in a steamed up bathroom; dampness will help garment shed wrinkles. For touching up with an iron, use steam in an up-and-down motion (rather than sliding the iron along the fabric).</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Annoying Problems In Women's Fashion]]></title><description><![CDATA[The fashion industry is moving faster than ever, that is nice for expressing yourself… but extremely dangerous for the environment.

<li>We can offer your garments to some such stores or brands which collect used materials. Such stores sell most of its collection to charities and aren’t recycled or upcycled.</li>
<li>We can offer our garments directly to charities as well. It does not do much of the good, because the quantity of garments given may be a ton over the quantity of garments bought, however it's still higher than nothing</li>
<li>We can opt for ecological materials. Some garments can have eco tex signs on them, which suggests they did less damage to the atmosphere. Some materials might even be marked as fairtrade, which means the staff will have had higher conditions and better wages.</li>
<li>Pick natural fibers (cotton, bamboo, hemp, silk, wool, cashmere, viscose, etc) over chemically created fibers (polyester (poly-anything, really), nylon, elastane, fleece, etc). Natural fibers are easier for the nature to decompose, and fewer resources were employed in creating them. Moreover, decide single material fabrics, which are easier to recycle.</li>
<li>Buy less, but higher quality. Shopping for items that last longer suggests that they will not find yourself as waste for a short while. Less shopping counteracts the consumption mind-set. More exemption suggests that it's likely to be handed down or otherwise have second and third owners.</li>

So here’s a shout-out to success through simple fashion resolutions you should tackle for 2019 while being smart.</p><p><em>As a rule of thumb, it will always be quality over quantity. We focus on providing our readers with rational shopping information.</em></p><p><strong>Do read our articles under the heading <a href="https://blog.aarida.com/tag/style-board/">Style Board</a> for personalised fashion tips.</strong></p>
<p>Our first resolution for the New Year is to look deep within ourselves and figure out we do not “need” but buy out of “desire”. The idea is to go through every shopping list you’ve ever made and figuring out what was bought on a whim, and promising yourself, no more.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1484480974693-6ca0a78fb36b?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="New Year’s Fashion Resolutions"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@glenncarstenspeters?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Glenn Carstens-Peters</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p>Trust me, it won’t hurt. And you will hardly notice it, and once you discover the usefulness of this consumer life hack, you won’t be calling up your parents near the end of the month to ask for some money.</p><p>Secondly, find your look; don’t just buy everything because some guy you met at a party thought some particular fancy dress would look good on you. Empty your closet out onto the floor and try on everything you own, figure out what is more you and what does not say enough about you. Most of the time, reorganizing your wardrobe, is all about reorganizing your mind.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1514752152763-70ccb9ff0138?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="New Year’s Fashion Resolutions"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@kpebedko_o?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Oleg Sergeichik</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p>Once you know the vibe you’re setting for 2019, set out on the hunt for small bazaars that have amazing clothing pieces at cheap prices. You wont just save money, you may also discover places and things you had never known existed, and who knows maybe you’ll be “<em>InstaFamous</em>”.</p><p>Treat yourself every once in a while, but try to treat yourself to things you actually need rather than splurging at your favorite shops. Make the effort to be more selective when it comes to making purchases in 2019. The more you buy, the more you’ll be throwing out, which means you’re giving into the trap of the fashion industry and following short lived trends.</p><blockquote>
<p><em>Find who you are, let your <a href="https://blog.aarida.com/love-your-wardrobe-again-in-2019/">clothes describe you</a>.</em></p>
</blockquote>
<p>Instead of spending like a shopaholic and mourning for that Dolce &amp; Gabbana leather jacket that feels like silk on your skin, budget! The importance of budgeting cannot be stressed enough. Divide the cost of your dream item by 12 months and come up with ways to save if you can’t just do it. May be you could skip the coffee you get every morning just because you get to stare at the cute barista.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1536914561643-9e3a7a8d063d?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="New Year’s Fashion Resolutions"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@candice_picard?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Candice Picard</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p>We wish you a very Happy New Year, in advance. :)</p>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[These Colors Could Make You Look Thinner]]></title><description><![CDATA[Do you wish to lose your additional pounds of flesh and appear thinner?

It happens to the best of us. You happen to notice a piece of clothing in the store and it’s tempting. But after you buy it, you actually never wear. So, before you make that impulse buy, consider whether that piece would work as part of at least three outfits in your existing wardrobe. If the answer is YES! go buy it. Otherwise, it’s probably not worth it. 70% of the clothes you own should be the 'everyday clothes', the essentials you need from day to day.</p><h3 id="get-creative-with-your-current-wardrobe">Get Creative With Your Current Wardrobe</h3><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1529854140025-25995121f16f?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="Tips To Avoid A Bad Buy-Day"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@skyestudios?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Skye Studios</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><p>Even with a minimalist wardrobe, you can create great outfits.

And yet, you’ve never worn either of them. That piece of clothing you just had a few weeks back is hanging in your closet with the sales tag still thereon. Sound familiar?</p><p>We all do it—buy clothes that we wear once or twice and then demote push to the backs of our closets. It's an evil use of money and a mess.

But there's a difference in trying your hands on a new trend that still fits into your taste, and trying on something completely outside of your reach just because you see everyone else carrying it well.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1533808305890-c3c37a803ed3?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="Don't Buy It If You Won't Wear It"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@3alexander?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Alex Mihai</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><h3 id="really-consider-if-you-have-something-to-match-it-with">Really Consider If You Have Something To Match It With</h3><p>Do you have shoes to combine with that dress, do you have pants matching with that top, a blouse to match with that skirt? Although it's okay to take risks sometimes and buy something that might not fit into any combination you have in your wardrobe but, it's something else altogether if you keep buying such clothes that can't play well with what you already own.</p><blockquote>
<p>Think of at least one (but ideally three!) outfits you can build with the piece in question before owning it.</p>

<h3 id="don-t-let-yourself-buy-maybe-items">Don't Let Yourself Buy "maybe" Items</h3><p>You know those items you put and try on in the changing room, and upon turning around for the big mirror reveal, you think "meh." Save yourself the money and don't persuade yourself that <em>maybe</em> it will work if you layer on scarves and alter the skirt and completely amend your personality so you can wear it to that one barbecue in July.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1535965260353-e5614814ff1f?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="Don't Buy It If You Won't Wear It"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@candice_picard?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Candice Picard</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><h3 id="draw-up-a-game-plan-for-pieces-that-are-outside-of-your-comfort-zone">Draw Up a Game Plan For Pieces That Are Outside Of Your Comfort Zone</h3><p>Say there's a new trend you would like to dabble in, however you don’t have any idea what to do with it once you bring it into your closet, like trousers, crop tops, or high-waist pants. Before you start taking your credit card out to make the bill, really take an instant and think on how you'd like to style it. If you can't think of even one styling scenario, the clothe just might not be for you.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1438109491414-7198515b166b?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="Don't Buy It If You Won't Wear It"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@b3njamin?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Benjamin Combs</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><h3 id="lastly-stop-and-think-before-you-buy">Lastly: Stop and Think Before You Buy</h3><p>A research finds that 21 percent of people go shopping to relieve stress, especially at the holidays.

<li>Does it fit? <em>If not, don’t buy it.</em></li>
<li>Do you own something similar? <em>If so, then you don’t need it.</em></li>
<li>Where am I going to wear it in the next four weeks? <em>No idea? Then maybe you should skip it.</em></li>

Enjoy!</p><h3 id="sometimes-it-s-ok-to-not-follow-the-fashion-trends">Sometimes, it’s ok to Not follow the fashion trends</h3><p>You know how the world of trends is moving so fast that you don’t get to enjoy the outfits that compliment the trend? I’m not saying that you should ignore them but for me it’s a matter of balance. Just go with anything that makes you happy, comfortable, and stylish. Trends will come and go but your personal style has to remain! Dress the way you want to be perceived by other people and this can easily define your style.</p><figure class="kg-card kg-image-card"><img src="https://images.unsplash.com/photo-1528056177018-bad81ecc0268?ixlib=rb-1.2.1&amp;q=80&amp;fm=jpg&amp;crop=entropy&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;w=1080&amp;fit=max&amp;ixid=eyJhcHBfaWQiOjExNzczfQ" class="kg-image" alt="Top 5 Fashion Authorities"><figcaption>Photo by <a href="https://unsplash.com/@elijahsad?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Elijah O'Donnell</a> / <a href="https://unsplash.com/?utm_source=ghost&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=api-credit">Unsplash</a></figcaption></figure><h3 id="accessories-are-the-most-important-things-when-it-comes-to-styling">Accessories are the most important things when it comes to styling</h3><p>I have talked about this in my previous blogs on how to elevate your look from boring to stylish, and you guys got to see that it was accessories that played the bigger part. Accessories such as earrings, shades, handbags etc are some of the things that counts, and compliments your style the most. And as much as you invest in clothes, you should also do the same for some accessories of your preference.</p><blockquote>
