#styletip Tuesday: Coat season is upon us – and that means the black coat brigade is about to hit the streets!
As you reach for your trusty black puffer/quilted black jacket/black woollen coat/black leather layers – consider adding in a little something extra to counteract the harsh impact black may have on your complexion.
Let’s face it, even if black is not part of most seasonal colour palettes – we ALL wear it! It’s considered chic, sophisticated, elegant, easily co-ordinated and it doesn’t require a lot of thinking.
So how can you wear black in a way that doesn’t add years, drain you or make you look tired? The obvious response is not to wear it directly up against your face. However, assuming you love your black winter outerwear like I do, my go-to solution is to simply add in some accessories in your best colours. When your best colours are what gets reflected against your face, the resulting harmonious effect can make you look fresher and more energized, negating what black – on its own – may be doing to your complexion.
So find those scarves, hats, collars and even gloves, purses and boots in colours that work well for you to create a stylish and pulled together look. Black outwear doesn’t have to be flat and boring. Your accessories will allow you to make a stylish statement in a very simple and affordable way!
If you’re curious about understanding what your best colours are why not consider doing a Colour Analysis? Thinking beyond your seasonal outwear, it will encourage you to begin wearing and combining colours in new and exciting ways, expanding the potential of your closet and ensuring that your investment pieces truly are long-lasting closet staples.
