Color Clashing Is Cool! So Embrace the Rainbow

Yesterday's strict style rules just don't make sense today. Never wear white during winter months? My favorite coat is winter white. Never wear black with brown, brown with blue, or blue with black? That's so 1950's. Never wear primary colors together, never wear pink with red, or pink with orange? Think again my colorful crew. It's the 21st century, and it's time to realize colors don't clash, they vibrate! Put a royal blue coat with a cream colored dress and you get one vibration, pair it with a bright red one and you get an entirely different feeling. It's all part of the fun of playing with color!

Here's the only tried and true rule to keep in mind when "clashing" your colors: rock it with confidence! If you know you look great and you're exuding confidence, people will react positively to your bold color choices. On the other hand, if you walk around like a shrinking violet, some may wonder if you got dressed in the dark and only realized it once you stepped out into the light.

Still nervous about embracing the rainbow? If you're looking for a fun and inexpensive way to play with color in your wardrobe, we suggest experimenting with boldly colored tights such as these yummy ones over at We Love Colors.
