Being a WAG has in itself become a fashion statement. So here is PART TWO of how to be the best WAG you can.
Thou Must Wear Heels…
If they are not over 6 inches then they are not heels, all WAG’s own a pair of “practical” 6 inch round toe, stilettos. Favourites are black or nude patents as they compliment every outfit, but as Spring approaches maybe you can afford to be more daring with colours.
Thou Should Always Hide Behind Sunglasses…
If you do have to nip to the shop, yet you’re too busy to look perfect. Take precautions. Firstly, make sure you are complete with oversized sunglasses preferably Christian Dior or Gucci. The frames can be used to hide a whole number of things such as; dark circles under eyes, lack of eye make up/ false lashes, puffy eyes and even blemishes on the upper cheeks.
Thou Should Always Cover The Head When Not Wanting To Be Photographed…
Not feeling very photogenic, wear a large hood/ cap/ hat to keep you hidden from paparazzi. Hoods hide bad hair days, lack of extensions, general bad days and they distract attention away from your face. Cover the head is also a fashion statement in itself and tells the paparazzi to politely leave you alone.
Thou Should Own The Perfect Pair Of Skinny Jeans…
Skinny’s are a must for a daytime look. Whether you are taking the children out or doing a spot of shopping, make sure you are wearing your figure hugging skinny jeans to keep you looking slim and slender day in day out.
Thou Must Wear Designer…
Designer garments are vital, now outfit is complete without a cheeky Chanel handbag or a stunning pair of Louboutins or even an entire Balmain outfit.
Being a WAG has in itself become a fashion statement. So here is PART ONE of how to be the best WAG you can.
Thou Must Tan…
No self respecting WAG would ever be photographed looking pasty and pale, therefore, tip number one, never leave the house without fake baking or taking a trip to the tanning salon first.
Thou Must Wear Make Up And False Lashes At All Times…
If you have a spot or blemish, ‘Do Not’, I repeat ‘Do Not’ leave the house without make-up. Get some concealer on that spot and a natural layer of foundation and lightly blushed cheeks should do the trick. And of course don’t forget false lashes for a fresh faced look.
Thou Should Always Have Luscious Locks…
Extensions are essential, clipped, sewn or glued; do not get photographed without them, unless of course you are sporting a brand new signature hair cut, in which case, extensions may be excused.
Thou Should Get A Unique Tattoo…
It is important to get a small tattoo somewhere visible, i.e wrist, hand, forearm, or if you are feeling risqué get your tattoo somewhere slightly intimate and be sure to get it photographed occasionally.
Thou Must Be Photographed With Children Occasionally…
If you have children it is important to occasionally get photographed taking them out.
Footballer wives and girlfriends are fast becoming a celebrity trend of their own. Very rarely out of the papers, they are always being photographed. Due to this they always go out of the house making sure they look their best and very rarely are seen in the same outfit twice. Of course most of us don’t have the budget to repeat this however it is still possible to dress like a WAG and not go over budget.
5 Handy hints are:
- Don’t be pale. WAG’s love to have a bit of color on their skin. Whether this is real or fake tan they rarely leave the house without a brown healthy glow.
- Never leave the house without make up. Even if you are nipping to the shop for a pint of milk you should always look your best. Life is a catwalk, you never know who you are going to bump into so make sure you always wear make up.
- As well as wearing make up, make sure you always do your hair. Hair extensions are a great way of changing your hair style easily and quickly, WAG’s love them!
- A great recommended WAG’s chill out outfit is a tracksuit. This should be a 1 color 2 piece tracksuit. Team this up with a pair of UGG boots and you have the perfect WAG chill out outfit!
- Big glasses! WAG’s wear sunglasses because they hide a multitude of sins. Tired eyes, bags under the eyes and make up less eyes. We wear them because they look good. The bigger the sun glasses the better to complete your WAG look.
Colleen Rooney as been hitting our headlines since she was a 16 year old school girl. The famous picture of her in ‘that’ puffa jacket has been published every where. Since then she has been restyled and is now a style icon. She is well known for wearing soft, natural colors, high-waisted shorts and trousers and accessories such as embroidery and beads. The Liverpudlian girl however has stayed true to her roots and can often be seen in the city’s Liverpool One shopping centre bagging some bargains. Of course for red carpet events and her wedding she spends a fortune and looks stunning but she is an ordinary girl at heart which means that we can copy her style easily and without looking out of place with the rest of the fashion followers.
Colleen Rooney has her own TV shows and magazine columns but she is probably most famous for being a WAG. Footballer’s wives and girlfriends are constantly hitting the headlines for their fashion starting trends and many have even launched their own clothes lines.
The great thing about colleen Rooney is that she dresses to impress but she can do it on a budget. This means for us normal, every day people we can dress like her without completely maxing out the credit card.
