So I'm not reaally into trends but every so often one comes along that I like and may find away to put my spin on it, in order to make my own interpretation of the said trend... I do this so that next season if I wear the exact same outfit again I dont look like a laggard.... This season one of the trends I love is Color Blocking!! I just want you to know I've been doing this before it was a trend. I styled my cousin N'maat (2010) pictured below for an event using the color blocking technic, this is a more modest approach anyone can pull off this off without feeling self concious.....
There are certain colors that just look right together evenn though they do not "match", example, anything in the Red family; Pink, Maroon all look great with purple or my fav' combo Royal Blue and Peach or Salmon, and Pink and Green. I dont know how to explain why they look good together but they do!!! lol... Now that you have the gist of what Color Blocking is , you will notice that it is every where!!!
Ok so here are some tips:
#1 Start off with neutral colors and a splash of bright, if you are not sure which colors will go well together. A classic example is all Black with Some colorful accessories
Tip #3 If you do not feel comfortable wearing it; DON'T!!!!! There is nothing worse than someone wearing something THEY CHOSE to wear and not look comfortable in it. You must exude confidence in anything you wear but Color Blocking requires not just confidence in the outfit but confidence in your self!!
I look forward to some pictures of your Color Blocking interpretation, below is mine... Until then...
Be Safe and Stay Fly!!!!
