You Look Silly Matching Colors

Actually, matching your outfit is not silly. It's matching the colors of your outfits that makes you look silly.

Gone are the days when it was cool to use a single color to dictate what you will be wearing for the day. Imagine someone wearing everything in one shade of blue. blue headband, blue eyeshadow, blue top, jeans, blue shoes, and blue bag. Awful! You'll look like a color that walked out of the color wheel.

I used to think it was cool. I would only do this subtly. I'd wear a green bracelet with my green slip-ons and green bag. Sometimes, with green underwear. I still match colors even until today, but you wouldn't even notice it.

So what to match, then?
Colors with other colors. Use different tones or shades that complement each other (clashing colors for other purposes), whether of the same color or otherwise . This will make you shine not in an attention-grabbing-matching-outfit-color way. Black is an exception, of course. How many shades of black can you have?
