BLACK OUT DAYS ARE GONE: FOOL PROOF GUIDE TO BRIGHTEN YOUR WARDROBE

Is your closet a black hole?  Do you often find yourself struggling to incorporate color into your wardrobe without looking like an elementary art project? Over the years I have learned that adding color into your wardrobe can elevate your style, uplift your spirits, and ease style transition from season to season. For those of you who constantly fear color when shopping I will provide you with my foolproof guide to overcome this obstacle.  No longer do you have to have monochrome wardrobe that consists of black, white, and grey, but one that will brighten your life! Read further to find out how you can brighten your wardrobe!


SWAP OUT!
This is a great tactic for those who want to take baby steps with adding color.  To introduce color to my clients that are scared I recommend swapping out colors like black for colors like navy, chocolate brown, or olive.  Try replacing the color white with pastel colors like yellow, pink, or blue.


BUILD AROUND YOUR FAVORITE COLOR
In my past article I mentioned a style rule of mine that I follow is to pick an article of clothing or accessory and build an outfit around it. Similarly, apply this strategy with color. Start with a piece of clothing in a color that you just love. Then choose a secondary color that is more of a backround color, one specifically in neutral tones, like crème, beige, or grey. You can become even more of creative by adding another garment/accessory in either a complementary or clashing color!

ADD IT IN ELEMENTS
If you still feel very hesitant towards color try incorporating it certain elements of the outfit, such as shoes, purses, scarves, belts, or jewelry.

ORANGE YOU GLAD
A rule of thumb I go by every season is focus on the color that is trending. This spring for women's fashion the color Orange is trending in all shades like tangerine, rust, cantaloupe, to coral red. From the runway to retail the color Orange has become the new black this season.

BE A FREE SPIRIT
Wearing color adds mood and personality to even the most basic outfit. Leave all your rules and preconceived notions about wearing color behind, and change it to one of self-expression.  Shifting to this mindset will transpire creativity, excitement, and make you stand out.  Stick to colors that you like or feel comfortable. It is important that you're the one wearing the clothes, not the other way around. To find out more go to www.trufashionfinder4u.com
