In last week’s post, the featured Fashionista showed us how to rock a bright color paired with neutrals and funky patterns. But why stick to only one bold hue? This week’s Fashionista shows us a great way to include more than one fun color into your ensemble.
The first thing that catches my eye about this Fashionista’s look is her vibrant teal mini skirt. She pairs the skirt with a coral lace bandeau. Over the top, she throws on a sheer black lace button-down with cap sleeves. She adds some spice to the ensemble with fun accessories. She wears a mini tea cup ring, an intricate, bronze snake bracelet, an elephant necklace and more. She completes the look with a pair of nude, patent leather flats. This Fashionista keeps her beauty routine simple, wearing only a subtle cat eye and keeping her hair down and straight.
If you’d like to replicate this Fashionista’s look, keep in mind that what makes the outfit work is the fact that she is wearing contrasting colors. Monochromatic looks are typically successful as well, just check out this Fashionista from SCAD. But colors close to each other on the color wheel can sometimes be an eye sore. Leave it to your own discretion though. Fashion never has real rules, only guidelines.
Another thing to keep in mind when wearing more than one bold color, is not to go overboard with the color of your shoes and accessories. Neutrals are always the best bet. This Fashionista keeps her look cool by wearing the black top and the nude flats. Throw on a fun purse and a great pair of sunnies, and you’re ready to stroll the streets!
