1: How is a look put together?

The art of creating a successful look lies in a subtle balance between different pieces and accessories. A look generally consists of three key elements: a statement piece, complementary pieces and accents.

The Strong Piece: The Central Element

The statement piece is often the starting point of a look. It could be a jacket, a coat, something with a strong print or a bright color that attracts attention. This piece is the central element of the look and largely defines its style.

Complementary Pieces: Harmony of Look

Complementary pieces are those that combine with the strong piece to create visual harmony. They can include tops, bottoms, shoes and other clothing that highlights the statement piece. The art lies in choosing these pieces so that they harmonize perfectly with the central element.

Accents: The Final Touch

Accents are the accessories that complete and enhance the look. They can include jewelry, handbags, scarves, belts and much more. Accents add a personal dimension to the look and can be used to express your unique style.

2: Which prints are slimming?

The choice of prints in your wardrobe can have an impact on the perception of your figure. Some prints are more flattering than others, especially when the goal is to slim the silhouette.

Printed materials to favor

Prints with large color contrasts should generally be avoided, as they can draw attention to areas that you might prefer to conceal. On the other hand, vertical lines have a slimming effect, while horizontal lines can have the opposite effect.

Personalization based on your body shape

It is essential to note that the choice of prints also depends on your body type. If you have a curvy figure, statement prints may be more in harmony with your body. On the other hand, if you have a smaller figure, opt for more discreet prints.

3: How to Mix Prints?

Mixing prints is a bold trend that can create unique and memorable looks. However, this requires some mastery to avoid mistakes.

The Principles of Print Mixing

Successful print mixing relies on a few basic principles. It is important to consider the scale of the patterns, by combining patterns of different sizes. Colors should also be consistent to create visual harmony. Mixing floral patterns with stripes or polka dots is a popular option.

Experiment with Caution

Experimentation is key to mixing prints, but it's best to start with simpler combinations and build confidence over time. Accessories can also play an important role in mixing prints by adding a touch of balance.

4: Why are Accessories not so Accessories?

Accessories are much more than just outfit additions. They have the power to transform a look significantly and reflect your personality.

The Importance of Accessories

Accessories, such as jewelry, handbags, belts and scarves, can add dimension to your outfit. They can be used to add pops of color, texture and style that elevate your look.

Expressing Your Personal Style

Accessories are a powerful way to express your personal style. They allow you to add unique elements to your outfit and customize it according to your preferences.

5: Why is Size just a Number?

The notion of size when it comes to clothing can sometimes be limiting. It is essential to understand that size is just a number and that every body is unique.

Height and Self-Confidence

Clothing size can impact self-confidence. It's important to choose clothes that fit you well and make you feel good, rather than sticking to a specific size.

Adapting to Your Morphology

Every body shape is different, and it's essential to choose clothing that highlights your natural assets. Touch-ups and adjustments may often be necessary to achieve the perfect fit.

6: How to Mix Colors?

The art of mixing colors in your outfit can create dynamic and stylish looks. Find out how to play with the color palette.

The Basics of Color Combination

To create harmonious color combinations, it helps to know the basics of color theory. Complementary, analogous and monochrome color combinations are options to explore.

Expressing Your Style

Colors are a powerful way to express your personal style. You can use colors to create bold and creative looks, or opt for more subtle and elegant palettes.
