How to Dress Like Oprah Winfrey

Oprah Winfrey may have an infinite amount of money in her bank account, a troop of fashion stylists and a custom-tailored designer wardrobe, but you don't have to break the bank to achieve her star quality look. The key to dressing like Oprah is not filling your closet with designer labels, but how you wear and accessorize your outfits.

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

1. Accessorize like Oprah, by stepping up your norm. Add a fashionable pin or brooch to your outfit, or pick an extra high pair of heels. Even if you head out in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, you should dress it up and add the extra element, like a pair of stilettos, a sparkling pair of earrings or a stylish handbag.
2. Have your clothes tailored at a bargain price. The reason why Oprah looks perfect in every outfit is because every outfit is made for her. You too can have the perfect fit. Many dry cleaners have a tailor on staff that works for a reasonable price, which means you can look as good as Oprah, without breaking your budget.
3. Shape to fit, even if you can't afford a custom tailor. Dressing in straight cut blouses and jeans will only make you look like you have packed on the pounds. Regardless of your shape and size, select clothing that streamlines and shows off your shape. Tapered leg pants are a definite no-no for almost every body type.
4. Follow Oprah's tricks for looking thinner, without actually losing weight. Slim your look with a pair of white flare bottomed trousers and a dark slim cut blouse. Add height with a pair of heals to really slim your look.
5. Wear gray, Oprah Winfrey's favorite color choice. Gray is fashionable, but not as gloomy as black, and not as glaring as white, while still matching almost any color in your closet.
6. Choose sleek, no-show panties, because Oprah wouldn't be caught dead with a panty line. Try a low-cut boy short that will always be comfortable and easy to conceal, or a sexy thong, for a discreet yet sensual lingerie option.
