I’m an elegance guru – here are the five tacky items you should never wear and why leather trousers are big no
WITH the weather transitioning, chances are you’ll be putting away your summery frocks and sandals in favour of sturdy boots and chunky knits.
But if you always struggle knowing what outfit to throw on in the mornings, then you may just want to listen up…
According to elegance expert Amira Bessette, there are five garments everyone should avoid wearing in Autumn if they want to look classy…and it’s not good news if you’re a fan of leather trousers.
With the chillier winter creeping in, we’ll soon be wrapping up in cosy bear coats.
But the elegance coach has taken to TikTok (@amira.bessette) to slam the comfy garment and noted that while it’s “adorable,” it “doesn’t belong to an elegant style”.
“There’s simply no way you can ever make them look sophisticated, not even for casual daily wear,” she explains.
And when it comes to jeans, Amira believes there’s one colour that should be avoided – light blue.
“There are lots of alternatives but avoid this colour of jean,” she says.

“I recommend either white or dark blue.”
The fashion fan goes on to say how she’s recently seen the offending colour of jean being paired with ankle boots and over-the-knee boots.
“I’m sorry, but it just looks horrific,” she notes.
Next up on Amira’s hit list of items to avoid are leather trousers.
“They look very cheap, even though I know they’re not,” she explains. “They just remind me of latex.
“I don’t recommend these if you want to dress in any of the elegant styles.”
Not stopping there, Amira also urges fashion fans to steer clear of chunky knitted scarves.
“It looks incredibly warm and cosy and I’d absolutely use them as a blanket when sipping on my chai by the fireplace,” she says.
“However, if you want to elevate your look and be more sophisticated, don’t wear them outside.”
And last but not least, Amira tells people to avoid cardigans with chains prints at all costs.
“Ok, that’s more of a personal opinion,” she says. “But this print just looks very tacky to me.
“I know some say they look elegant, but I just don’t see it, and I would certainly avoid this type of print.”
The post has since gone viral, racking up thousands of views and several comments from social media users, with many in agreement.
“Thank god! I never wear any of these,” wrote one.
A second penned: “Oh yes that’s jeans whatever the brand, the price or the outfit it looks so cheap and not elegant.”
A third enthused: “Agreed!”
