Turn Blah Into Beautiful

Ever wanted to turn that boring outfit into a FCR work of art? Well, your clothes may be cute and all, but maybe if you paired certain pieces together, they were less than flattering, and I can help you turn that Blah into Beautiful!

__________Ways To Turn Blah Into Beautiful...and Too loud into Just Right___________

1.Add red! Red is one color with a whole lotta personality! Whether you have on all black or all white. Pair that black dress with a red clutch, earrings, or pumps and your outfit is just fabulous. And way less depressing.

2.Jewelry is the key. From Colorful cashmere bangles to the square ones mentioned in the previous post. You don't even have to be that colorful. Dark blue jeans and a cotton shirt? Try layering gold necklaces on top. But remember, if you have a white shirt, always opt for gold and not silver.

3. Belts are your friend. Don't be afraid to explore the many worlds of belts, all with studs, stones, patent leather finishes, or just wide or shiny.

4.Layer like crazy! Plain black pants or blue jeans, or even work pants can be fabulous when your shirt has multiple layers. So it's very neat and conservative/playful at the top, but dressy at the bottom. Please layer neatly! You can create this style with anything : cardigans, V-neck shirts, empire crew neck T's, T-Shirts, sweaters, and even camis!

5. When going for a toned down look, do not over do it. If you want to layer, try to stick with a color scheme. For example, only layer brown with gold or white or tan. And try not to take it over 3 layers.

6.If your dress is red and your pumps are orange, stop! It all depends on where you're going, but I'm giving you tips on turning the look ALL THE WAY DOWN. So if your destination will allow you to still be fashionable, but not too loud, number six is not for you. Okay, back to your outfit. Trendy is nice. But when you're at a strictly formal destination, get out of the spirit of being fashionable. Your black dress can still have a cute cardigan/ shrug with it, or a jeweled belt. But do not opt for the bright and wild colors.

7.If you are all toned down, add bright accessories to get a little extra kick, without being too loud. Just right. This is for the other person mentioned in number six. Try an oversized red bag/tote. Or wear bright green or turquoise pumps with that outfit. This is turning it down, while still keeping it hot.

8.Think Professional. Ladies, learn control. Most businessmen don't go for the loud, checkered suits. Their suit is plain, yet their tie is bright, maybe colorful, and has prints and designs. Learn to think like them. Add a printed belt and no more. An orange shrug, but stop there! Or don't add anything at all and let your swag speak for you. You could have on the hotest outfit out there, but if you're not rocking it right, then you ain't saying nothing.
