Putting together an outfit isn't just throwing things on your body. Picking out an outfit is about technic and proportion. It's a science. Here's my guide to putting together the perfect outfit:
Step 1: Pick a Focal Point
First way to go about putting an outfit together is picking out a piece in your wardrobe. It can be something that fits your mood, something you just bought, or if you're just stuck it can be a plain white tee!
Step 2: Analyze Your Item
Once you picked out a piece you want to wear, analyze it. Look at the color, the structure, the pattern and the complexity of the item and build your outfit around it.
Step 3: Putting It All Together
Now that you've analyzed your item, start building an outfit that will compliment it.
Example 1:
Say you choose a top with a crazy print but the print was in black and white. You would want to add something to your outfit that has a pop of color so the outfit isn't so dull. However, you want it to be a simple and subtle pop of color, not something that will overwhelm the outfit.
Example 2:
Now say you had a colorful top with a bold print, you don't want to over accessorize or have items that will clash with the top but rather enhance its beauty and compliment its character. Therefore, you would keep everything else in the outfit simple and neutral.
So there are three simple steps in putting an outfit together. It's really all about trial and error,what looks good to you and reflects your style. It may seem tricky at first but eventually it will come natural and you'll become a pro! If you're really stuck, you can always look online for inspiration and guidance. There are plenty of helpful blogs like, I don't know, this one!
