.bold color mix.
we’ve had some chilly days the past few weeks, the ground has been covered in snow and honestly it’s been tough to want to get dressed up all cute π I’m ready for some warmer temps! I need a vacation π but for now, I’ll just stay busy styling with jackets, long pants and keeping my toes covered!
this faux suede jacket I got ON SALE at Kohl’s just before christmas and I was SO excited about it, my mom even got the same one π it’s the prettiest burgundy and the rose gold details are what sold me. I am not afraid to mix colors and prints you know that π so pairing the burgundy with olive to me is a no brainer – I added the black and mauve pink to the mix because those are practically neutrals in my life these days. I love how the color story just blends to create such a harmony.
a tip for pairing colors in an outfit – put the same tones together (a fool proof win!)
for example, there are no neons or pastels, each of the colors have the same level of brightness and warm/cool tone. you don’t have to follow this ‘tip’ it’s more of a guideline if you’re stumped and don’t know what pairs with what. there are occasions when I DO pair together neons & pastels, etc. just if you’re not particularly comfortable mixing and matching colors that is a useful thought π keep your colors within the same tone.
