The Color Blocking Conundrum (Cont ..)


How do you draw the line between looking stylish and looking like a mad man?
The mistake many make is they think a cobweb of bright colours equates to looking fashionable or good. Well simply put NO!



Firstly colour blocking takes a certain confidence to pull off.
 The secret to it, is bringing together colours (of which any apply bright or dark) which blend to create a perfect harmony as one! 

You can do this with not only your outfit but even your hair, accessories, socks, panties or bra! nail colour, teeth colour (ok I'm taking teeth colour too far brush your teeth people lol!) ANYTHING GOES in the beautiful world of fashion!

There are no rules to colour blocking other than the outcome must be appealing to the eyes! Fashion is ART and ART must not be abused!  
Peep the photos below of my different outfits as examples of odd colours coming together in perfect harmony!

1. Coral Red Blazer, Hot Pink Shirt, Orange Trousers, Blue Socks, Brown Shoes
2. Cream Blazer, Red Shirt, Maroon Trouser, Brown Belt,Coral Res Shoes, Blue/Red watch, Black Necklace


3. Brown Blazer, White Shirt, Blue Trousers, Yellow Socks, Pink Watch, Brown Shoes


4. Pink Blazer, Yellow Shirt, Blue Trousers, Black Shoes

5. White Blazer, Blue Shirt, Yellow Tie, Green Trousers, Yellow Socks , Black Shoes 


6.  Wine Jumper, Grey Tank Top, Mustard Yellow Jeans, White Dr Martens, Black Bag




P.s. Different shades of one colour can also be worn together with another colour or more to achieve a beautiful outcome e.g. My mixture of  50 shades 3 shades of Blue below LOL!
