  Do you have any tips/advice for me as a amateur skinner?

  I'm not good at explaining things, but I could probably give some basic advice.
  1) Hue shifting. When shading, you use multiple hues instead of just one (like a palette that gradually shifts from a dark blue to a brighter green). You can learn more about it from this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEFgi7wtwXU
  
  2) Mess around with shading styles, do what you think fits yourself. When in need of help or inspiration, you can always find from the talented artists here. That's how I grew.
  
  It's pretty basic, but it should help even just a little. Sorry I can't explain any further, but you're probably better off asking someone more experienced.

  i don't consider myself to be a expert but i would say add little things like a chocker, leget, different shoes, funky socks... just look at other people's skins and see what makes them detailed!! <3

  :O you are asking for advice, you, your skins are incredible! People should be asking you for advice.
  
  Btw.. some advice?

  Understood, thank you for the info. I won't be adding little details, but I have been trying to make my skins look unique. So i'm glad to hear that I have been doing well in the designs of my outfit, but of course I do strive to become better in the future. Again, thank you for the advice.

  i was actually just thinking about this, i think good advice for skinning would be simplifying more complex designs. unless it's an hd skin you don't have a very big canvas to work with, and little details may be better off omitted because of the scale. your skins look perfect in terms of that, i honestly wouldn't go much more detailed (if at all) with what you currently have
  
  when i try to make skins of characters with more patterns and accessories it may look alright in the ref but on a skin it ends up looking really messy. imo sacrificing some aspects will make it look better vs keeping them in
  
  if you're asking about actually designing outfits i can't help with that since i mainly do character skins, but pinterest is great for references and ideas
