Fashion–it’s an art form; it’s a way for people to express them-selves without words, and it’sbeen an everyday thing since the beginning of time. Despite it being considered an art by many people throughout the world, there are some people out there who don’t know which kind of clothes match well with each other – in turn, they look silly. If you find yourself having this problem, here are some ways to improve your style.
Color Schemes
An outfit can be as basic as a person wants; what ties it to- gether is the colors of the clothes themselves. Most people often don’t know which colors work well together. Imagine a person going to school wearing an or- ange sweater and bright neon green sweatshorts; they’d look silly, right?
A way to prevent this problem is to understand the color wheel—a spectrum with every color in the rainbow. The color wheel follows a rule known as the color theory. It explores which colors comple- ment each other the best to cre- ate visually appealing and com- patible outfits. Half of the color spectrum consists of warm-toned colors – like cherry red, tangerine orange, amber (yellow), or anything that has a bright, bold hue – and cool- toned colors – like navy blue, violet, sage green, or anything else that has a desaturated hue. If you are still confused, you can search up an example of the color wheel.
Cool colors work well with it- self; this also applies to warm tones, too. When pairing clothing, matching a darker piece of clothing for bottoms and a lighter piece for your top creates a put-together look. An example of this kind of pairing is wearing dark blue jeans with a light blue top.
There are also neutral colors on the spectrum. These colors include black, gray, and white; they pair well with any clothing. Neutral colors go well with either tone – it doesn’t matter.
To find out what kind of col-ored clothing and jewelry will look better on you, take a look at your wrists. What color are your veins? If your veins are green, you are a warm-toned person. If your veins are blue or purple, you are acool-toned person. Gold jewelry looks better on warm-toned peo-ple while silver jewelry looks bet-ter on cool tones.
The colors of an outfit can de-termine what sort of vibe or per-sonality a person will give off. Any outfit that has any warm-toned colors will make a person seem very outgoing and energetic, while an outfit that has any cool-toned colors will make someone seem very laid back and mature in a sense. Be wise and careful while choosing what to wear!
Proportions
Every human has a unique body type, and each body type is beau-tiful in its own way. Clothing can either flatter a person’s features, or muddy them altogether and make them look silly.
Proportionality can help create a more mature look for the aver-age person. It helps create sym-
metry and balances elements. A person needs to know what body type that they have.
There’s a property called the “rule of thirds.” Picture your body split into three parts – from your head to your waist, from your waist to your knees, and your knees to your feet. You need to choose which part of your body you want to draw attention to. Whether it be your waist, neck, or legs, it doesn’t matter. Empha- sizing a certain part of your body will make you look either taller, your neck look longer, or your shoulders more broad, etc. Ac-cessories also can help emphasize and give a certain element that you want to display to your overall appearance.
Those who have a fitter and leaner body type should wear looser clothing for the bottom and a tighter top. This type of styling will help flatter their fea-tures.
For individuals with a more bulky body type, their outfits should include a loose top and a loose fit for their pants. This will help draw attention away from certain body parts.
Conclusion
Always remember that fashion is just another way of self-expres-sion. You don’t have to fit in with society; dress the way you want. You should feel happy in whatever you wear. Don’t let anyone hold you back on what you want to do. Everyone is unique and different in their own ways. Have fun dressing!
