"It doesn't have to match, it goes..." is a quote from one of my favorite TV shoes, What Not To Wear. Picture this: White blouse, white pants. Now, you need a belt that you can wear with this outfit... do you pick white or coral? Naturally, someone might tell you to go with the white because it "matches." But does that look better than the coral one? No! Coral brings out a nice pop of color in your new outfit. You could also wear that with a nice set of gold hoop earrings and a necklace with another dash of coral at the shoes.
Ladies, when you're wearing your clothes, think of Complimentary Colors in the Color Wheel. They are called that for a reason. Each one compliments the others. The other day, for example, I wore a nice blue sweater with an aqua scarf. Yes the blues went together, but do you know what color sunglasses I chose? PINK. It ended up going beautifully. Y'all have to experiment with your clothing. I am telling you it helps in the biggest way.
Knowing that you tried something new really helps boost your confidence level. I am living proof of that. The next time you go shopping, look at the mannequin. What does it have on? Pay attention to the colors and accessories it's wearing. Check out my OOTW's that I post. In my Outfit Of The Week who knows what color scheme I'm going to choose. You have to step out of that comfortable bubble we all live in and try something new. Experiment! Have fun with it! Fashion isn't supposed to be tiresome. It's supposed to express who you are as a person.
Always remember... "It doesn't have to match, it GOES..."
