Fashion Friday: Opposites Attract

Opposites attract. Not only can this strategy help you find a mate, it can also help you get out the door looking fabulous and feeling fresh! Read on.....

Are you in a rut when it comes to your wardrobe?  Do you wear your favorite black pants with the same old shirt?  Are you bored and uninspired with your clothes? 

Try these suggestions for an unexpected, unique look, while getting double-duty out of your existing pieces.

  1. Pair a loose with a fitted. Example: Pair a long, flowy skirt with a fitted top; Pair a loose, silk blouse with skinny jeans.
  2. Pair a classic with a trend. Example: Pair an LBD (little black dress) with polka-dot heels; Pair a bright crop pant with a classic striped tee.
  3. Pair a dressy with a casual.  Example: Pair worn-in, distressed jeans with a silk, ruffled blouse, heels and a clutch (for extra cool points, cuff the jeans); Pair a dress pant with a white T and a denim jacket (don't forget to roll the sleeves)

The next time that you're standing in your closet wondering what to wear, remember when it comes to fashion, opposites attract.
