Celebrities take all sorts of style risks, so you don’t have to. Kim Kardashian, Rihanna, Kanye West, and other celebrities have been fashion icons for a long time. They take risks and experiment with outfits that most would be afraid to try.
Even when they aren’t necessarily trying to take risks, their outfits make a statement. Here are a few style dos and don’ts to learn from celebrities.
1. Do: Use Unique Colors to Make a Statement
Do not be afraid to experiment with bold colors. The best options include yellow, neon green, and hot pink. You simply need to make sure you know how to pull it off.
Although many celebrities can and do wear bold colors (think Christina Milan, Hayden Panettiere , and Kim Kardashian), you should pay attention to how a bold color looks on your skin.
If you are in doubt, you can add a pop of color with accessories. Consider accentuating your look with yellow flowers, a neon handbag, or a hot pink scarf.
2. Don’t: Wear Bold Colors If They Don’t Match Your Tone
A few celebrities have attempted to wear bold colors. However, they don’t always pull it off. Consider your skin tone and the rest of your outfit before stepping out in yellow or other bold colors.
For example, yellow hues don’t always look good with lace. In addition, olive skin tone doesn’t go well with dull shades of yellow.
3. Do: Wear Prints In A Chic Way
Kendra Wilkenson, former Playmate, and girlfriend of Hue Hefner. She isn’t the typical fashionista you’d picture when looking for the latest trends. However, she does a good job, especially with prints.
Most people, including Miss Kendra, look well in watercolor prints. Luckily, they are widely available. Summertime is the ideal time to wear prints on a flowing dress that hits in all the right places.
You can never go wrong. Kendra definitely gets it right with nude pumps that highlight the neutral aspects of the design.
4. Don’t: Overdo the Prints
While prints can be fun, you want to stay moderate with them. Creative thinking will help you put together outfits in non-traditional ways. For example, prints could look great in a dress but not in a business suit.
The matchy-matchy look is unpleasant and doesn’t make the statement it is supposed to. If the graphics are overdone, they could make your outfit seem cheap.
5. Do: Get Inspired With These Celeb Looks
If you are trying to find your signature style, you can get inspiration from your favorite celebrities. Over the years, most celebrities have developed signature styles. Cara Delevingne, for example, is famous for her fancy trouser suits.
On the other hand, Keira Knightley steps out in cute girly dresses. Checking out the style of iconic celebrities could help you find yours.
6. Don’t: Try to Copy Celebrities Style
Looking at your favorite celebrities should help you find inspiration. While it is okay to appreciate their style, you shouldn’t try to copy it. Since everyone is different, what works for one person won’t necessarily work for another.
7. Do: Dress for Cold Weather
Cold weather isn’t an excuse to let go of your style. Long coats, for example, are sleek and can make you seem taller.
You can look great without compromising on warmth. Celebrities like Priyanka Chopra and Bella Hadid have inspirational looks for the cold season.
8. Don’t: Forget to Balance
If you wear a long coat, balance it out with high-heeled boots. If the fabric of your coat falls to the flow, your outfit looks unbalanced. It may seem like you are standing in a hole.
Your favorite celebrities can help you create the wardrobe of your dreams. Pay attention to what they are doing right and learn from their mistakes. You don’t have to copy everything they are doing. You can get inspiration and apply it to your own life.
Keep being AllDayChic!
