OK, so I know some of you have been deprived of my fashion tips. So here is a new update. So here is a new update. Fashion week (more like months) are still rolling in and more and more designers are suprising me more and more. And it seems that many of you respond to pictures and one of my most popular posts was layering. So lets talk about specific layering. What I like to call "Hot/Cold Layers"
FASHION TIP OF THE WEEK #21: So I dont want to repeat my layering tips because that is unique within itself. Or I dont ever want to repeat myself with last week's tip.
Here is my theory on Hot/Cold Layers (some of you may find simple-minded): As much as it is great to wear pratically nothing, there should always be a method of layering. Hot/Cold layers focuses on layering different things that mix with the current weather.
So here are things you might want to consider - my rules on things you should NEVER layer together:
1_ When the weather is cold/rainy, absolutely never, NEVER be stupid and wear a skirt and a thin material top.
2_ A (puffy) jacket should NEVER be combined with a skirt.
3_ Denim jeans or skirts should NEVER be worn with leg warmers. Ladies, that ship has sailed off with the early 90s.
4_ With a longer coat NEVER wear short stubby shoes. Basically, coats that go past the rear (in length) should always be worn with a higher heel.
5_ Who ever said never wear white after labor day should be instituted. White can be worn But NEVER, wear mono-chromatic outfits. If you are going to wear a light color, layer it with warm tones
6_ Mid-drifts are okay to show but if you refer to my layering post, more thin layers (you will want more than 2) = the better. So NEVER wear layers that makes you lose your curves in your outfit.
7_ Accessories are HUGE when layering. But, NEVER wear bulky accessories that take away from your GREAT layering. (i.e. bulky scarves.)
8_ Lace can only cover so much. Girls, NEVER overdo it with the layering of the lace. Its cute but too much can take it away.
9_ A silk charmeuse top may be cute for summer or for clubbing but NEVER wear it with cold weather. So basically, NEVER wear tops that will make your headlights turn on. (I know by stating that, I have disappointed millions of guys). Avoid material like that for Fall/Winter.
10_ Try to AVOID colors like black, beige, tan, brown (unless its khaki or dark or walnut)/(for girls- quite biased, i know). Remember to mix warm with cool tones. It spices up an outfit.
So good luck ladies. I know I didnt include pictures, but next week's topic will be solely be pictures. Tell me if you have any problems understanding my rules. (I kinda had to do this in a hurry).
And remember: Check back next week for the next fashion tip! Always dress to look your best (Even if it's a pair of sweats and a tee)!
