HOW TO FIND CLOTHES THAT FLATTER YOU PART I

Have you ever shopped online and found a skirt or a dress that you just loved? However, when it finally concluded its long journey and landed in your mailbox you soon realized that it was the exact opposite of what you wanted? Well, this scenario happens time and time again for those who don't know those tips and tricks for finding the perfect garments for your body type. Here is something that might help you discover what is right for you.

COLOR:

Red- this is a very bold and bright color. Red is a perfect color for when you need to steal the show or make a statement. If you are someone who is confident with your body, this color is perfect for you.

Orange- Orange is a color that along with red is very bright. If you consider yourself someone with a spunky and fun personality, Orange is definitely for you.

Yellow- This color is best as an accent. I especially like yellow as piping on a blazer or a nice yellow bangle.

Green- Green is a perfect winter color. Olive and darker greens compliment darker skin while pastels green and sea foam green compliment lighter skin. Green is a great color for accessories such as scarves or gloves.

Blue- Well obviously there are jeans and jeans go with virtually everything. However, blue is a very flexible color and comes in many shapes and sizes. Blue works it's magic; whether its an evening dress or a t shirt, blue is perfect for everyone.

Purple- Most of you probably know this, but purple was considered royalty. Its still a very luxurious color, but in my opinion, it along with yellow, looks better as an accent. It is a subtly bright color that can either look really good, or really bad. However, as an accent there is no risk of either extreme and just adds a little pop.

Brown- Brown is a very earthy color and is usually associated with bohemain or indie style clothing. Brown is a very neutral color that looks good as any article of clothing.

Black- Black along with purple is very subtly bright. Not bright as in blinding, but bright as in it is a color that will stand out. So, if you are confident with your body and figure, black is a color that would suit not only your body, but also your personality.

Part II will be coming out soon, so stay tuned!

ciao for now,
