Like pastels but afraid to wear them? That happens quite often as they tend to turn out to be a tricky choice for garments. These fashion rules will bring out your inner fashionista to a new level of self-confidence:
Rule Nr.1.
The most essential thing about pastels is to know which colors go well with them. Never pair pastels with black except of white and ivory. Forget about bright colors to compliment your chic cashmere garments otherwise you'll look silly. Keep in mind that grey will always look better than black. A timeless combination is pale grey and light lavender (notice that these two colors are cool what is also important choosing the right color combination).
Rule Nr.2.
Don't create girly-looking outfits like pastel pink with lavender etc. Combine de mure pieces with those to make a bit of contrast. But if the choice is made for the first ones, combine them in accessories like totes or belts.
Rule Nr.3.
Opt for chic modern jewelry. This will make a wonderful contrast especially if your outfit consists of fairy-like colors. Be careful with pearls as you may turn into a fairy-godmother. Better choose chic pearl studs and tiny pieces instead of bold pearl jewelry.
Rule Nr.4.
Opt for interesting hosiery. Pale fishnets may do wonders paired with a yellow dress or the opposite--beige dress with pale yellow fishnets. And forget once in a while the prejudices against this wonderful piece of hosiery! Look with such a confidence the beauties of glamourous 40s liked to wear them!
Avoid plain baby pink tights. it's a no-no.
Good luck in the dark woods of fashion!
