The New Matching

Hey Pres, What's this I see? Is Matching back?

It's not as easy as it sounds!
The addition of matching accessories to a perfect outfit is a new twist. There are several ways to try it.

1)Creating a color block by using the same colors near to each other. In this technique, a multicolored top could be paired with a jacket or cardi in the same color family. A yellow cardi might have a yellow scarf added. Two prints with the same color family might be paired as the top half of an outfit, and a neutral added as the bottom.

2) An accessory, like a bag, is in the same color family as adjacent items, like a purse and a skirt, Bag&Shorts

2) Using unexpected colors for shoe/belt matches, like our favorite yellow, or turquoise, or red. (I'm searching for an example. Watch this space.)


Some things to watch out for:
The items in the ensemble must be fresh. If you have a traditional black croco belt, don't match it to your croco shoes. This works best with high impact colors like hot pink. Please don't take a dated print and pick up a pop color, like cherries on a skirt, and echo it in high profile red MJs.
