| Feeling troubled over what color to wear? What
color makes you look good? Well, fashion is all
about yourself. What you choose to wear every
morning tells a lot about you and how you felt that
day. Even your little handbag carries a little
story. Mixing and matching is a personal choice,
you create your very own style!
Well, let’s get to understand and have fun with
colors
White
A popular color in Fashion. Light and neutral, it
goes well with any color.
Considered a summer color, a good choice for
tops. Always have some in your wardrobe. It readily
matches bottoms of any color; a pair of blue denim
jeans, Khakis pants, a gray skirt, a bright colorful
beach bermudas? You name it!
Associated with cleanliness and purity, innocence
and gentleness…, it gives you a feeling of freedom
and uncluttered openness. Women just always look
that lovely in their snowy white wedding gown, don’t
they?
Tips: add a little touch of white to brighten or
lighten up your mood Eg. a white tank top with blue
denim jean, white cotton jacket over a hot pink
velour smocked baby doll dress or a simply all white
for a simple breezy look
Black

never out of trend
A good choice for bottoms. Directly opposite of
white, it readily matches tops of any colors.

making the wearer appearing slimmer. A great
complementary color for accessories like a pink
sparkling evening bag, a diamond necklace…
A mysterious color, it gives you a feeling of
perspective and depth. Symbolizing elegance and
refinement, it is always regarded as a prestigious
color.

family itself for various moods Eg. a red retro
style tee with maroon pleated skirt, hot pink cotton
v-neck tank with red fleece collegiate mini skirt.

about a very soothing & relaxing feel, pleasant to
the eyes. Naturally refreshing in mood, it’s a good
choice for daytime wear.

Well, there are simply too many colors if I were
to go on. I believe you should now have a feel of
how matching of colors can be of so much fun? In
simple, just play by the color rules:
1. Stick to one color (all
white, blue, red…)
2. Hot goes with cool (match
yellow with green or blue not with red, it might be
too hot!)
3. Use neutral colors to draw
the looks together (white, gray, beige and black are
good neutral colors)
4. Play around with color of the
same family (pink with maroon, sky blue with navy
blue…)
