Colored Jeans DON'Ts

As most of you have noticed by now, one of the season’s most popular trends is the colored jeans: bright, bold, neon and pastel colors. Everyone seems to be excited about it and ready to adopt it. But unlike the tips you’re reading in fashion magazines on how to dress it up or down and how to complete the look, I’m going to give you some tips on how NOT to wear the colored jeans so you can avoid becoming a fashion victim.

-       DON’T over do the color mixing and matching. Although the colors are bright, fun and very tempting to wear but you don’t want to end up looking like Betty in Ugly Betty. So avoid mixing more than 2 or maximum 3 bright colors at the same time.

-       DON’T rush to Zara and buy all the colors of the same jeans on display. First it’s a fad, it might not last for long. Second, don’t be too selfish. Your friend who feels like wearing a pastel colored jeans will think twice before doing so, since there is a high probability you will be wearing the same thing the next day, the day after and the day after that…. And trust me, your boyfriend wont even know the difference in color between orange, peach, salmon or mustard. For him, they are all just things to eat!

-       DON’T do the 2 color assortment: sky blue top, yellow pants, sky blue pumps, yellow clutch, sky blue earrings... (yawn) It’s boring and so uncreative.

-       And finally… DON’T buy it just because it’s the trend and everyone is wearing it. You will not be punished, laughed at, nor made fun of if you don't. First and foremost, to pull off any trend, it should look good on you.   

   


  I hope that helps!

  Until next time...
