collecting inspo is always step 1 imo step 1a is also just trying stuff out. Play dress-up with what you have and decide if you like it

I have inspo going back years on IG. I'll go back thru and pick out themes or search out specific stuff for particular items or vibes. Folks might be able to give you some things to try out but you kinda just gotta immerse yourself to develop your taste. Pinterest, the #waywt #theme-waywt and #waywt-highlights threads here, IG, trying out fits yourself and posting them to #waywt, and even just being more mindful of what people around you are wearing are all sources. I find that posting to an audience can be really helpful. It's one thing to put a fit on at home but another to actively put it out into the world somehow (more that just wearing it outside too)

have you had a chance to read through the first few links in#fashion-guides? those can serve as a good foundation for fashion knowledge - what items to wear, how to put together an outfit, using color, and even developing a personal style - and without the cost investment of a stylist part of getting "better" at style is getting better at evaluating items and fits, not just what is good or not good but what you like or don't like; this can take time and can even change with time.

i would check #inspiration and #waywt in tandem on here https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1212444107847503872 is also a good thread where people shared IG/tiktok follows

I was just about to comment that one haha. There's this one as well: https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1172943826848059473/1172943826848059473 Insta much better than Pinterest ime for fashion stuff. See if there's any of the accounts shared there that catch your fancy, then if you follow them check out the suggested pages that they also follow, often gets you a bunch of similar pages to draw from

i also think there's value in starting off big with inspiration to figure out a vibe or feeling, then funneling it down to specific things. #inspiration helps with that, but we also just finished up a fit battle where lots of different styles were represented by mfad users https://discord.com/channels/1116793467654381685/1219673819908669500/1223300647655575612
