I remember at 14 I had enough grasp of style to realize that clothes that were tight around my waist were flattering on me, but not enough grasp to understand that cargo shorts + baggy tshirt cinched at the waist by an elastic headband on top wasn't the best way to achieve this

There was an extended period of time where I wore t-shirts with a headband around the waistline almost daily.... I cannot believe friends and family just let me walk around like that

The other method I crudely devised for displaying my waistline was to wear a white wifebeater tucked into my pants, with a t-shirt worn over it that I tied up under my boobs to make it into a trashy crop top. This might be *slightly* more forgivable than the other way

Found a pic haha, not exactly the headband thing in this pic but I remember doing that with this exact baggy tshirt a lot lol (in this pic I just tightened it in the back with a hairband gathering the excess fabric, which was a more common thing to see girls doing)pic.twitter.com/PPUVHmQCCQ

Help them develop taste. Ask what they think if various outfits in media or fashion or whatever. Discuss it
