You can know everything in the world, but at one time or another, you’re going to need advice from someone. I am always asking for advice, and I’m lucky enough to have a network of friends and family I can go to whenever I need them. If you’re looking for counsel, here’s my list of the seven best people to ask for advice, and what they can help you with…
1. Mother

Ask for advice about: fashion, parenting, health, cooking
My mother is my number-one go-to person for advice about almost anything. She’s the most fashionable person I know, so I can always ask for her input on clothes and shoes, but she’s also wise about family matters. When I was a teenager, she gave me the best dating advice ever: If a boy likes you, nothing will keep him from calling you. She was right, and I still go to her for advice.
2. Sister

Ask for advice about: relationships, fashion, beauty, family
My closest friend in the world is my sister, Melissa. I can call her any day, at any time, to share a laugh, or ask for advice. I can rant about our crazy, dysfunctional family, ask for advice about relationships and kids, and I can also find out what I ought to be wearing. I love my sister!
3. Best girlfriend

Ask for advice about: relationships, fashion, beauty, cooking
If you’re lucky enough to have a good girlfriend, then you have someone you can rely on for advice about all sorts of things, like relationships (should I call him?), fashion (do these pants look okay with this top?), beauty (should I grow my hair out again?), and cooking (what can I make for dinner with chicken and beans and lettuce?). Chances are, she’ll be asking you for advice, too… and that’s what girlfriends are all about!
