DON’T KNOW WHAT TO WEAR?
HERE ARE SOME TIPS
RULE #1: BE COMFORTABLE
Wear comfortable clothes (not too hot, not too cold…) that make you feel good.
The idea is to be able to move freely without having to worry about your clothes, without having to adjust or check them.
Avoid tops that are too short or too low-cut, clothes that are too tight, and skirts or dresses that are too short.
RULE #2: SOLID COLORS (AND PATTERNS IN MODERATION)
Think about timelessness… keep in mind that these are photos you will keep for the rest of your life and pass down to future generations!
Avoid elements that will distract from the image, that will catch the eye…
So, prioritize solid-colored clothing.
Of course, you can wear patterns, but just a touch… not everything, and pair them with solid colors.
We especially avoid big logos/brands, designs, etc.
RULE #3: COORDINATE YOUR OUTFITS
Here, we’re talking about color and style.
If you are several people, the idea is to make it as harmonious as possible.
In terms of color, it’s not necessary to be identical, but to have something complementary.
This could mean using the same color in different shades or complementary colors.
The general advice is to start with a “main” color and add touches of opposite or complementary colors in neutral tones.
In general, avoid using more than 3 colors.
You can test the harmony by laying out all your clothes next to each other on a bed.
Ideally, you can also take the environment into account, both for the style and the colors.
Depending on whether we will be in an urban space, in a forest, at the beach, etc., we won’t necessarily wear the same clothes. The same goes for the colors.
Depending on the main color, here are some ideas for combinations in similar tones or more contrasting ones.
Depending on the main color, here are some complementary colors that can mix well or pair with colors in the same tones.
Also, to help you, here are some diagrams you can follow to find harmonious color combinations.
RULE #4: WHY NOT ACCESSORIZE?
Feel free to add accessories, as they can bring variety without having to change outfits. They can also serve as a full “outfit” on their own.
Some ideas: flowers (necklace/crown/just a flower in your hair…), hats, fans, balloons, jewelry, umbrellas, scarves…
RULE #5: BE YOURSELF!
You don’t need to buy something special (unless it really makes you happy). The idea is to stay true to yourself, wear an outfit that suits you and makes you feel good!
