Unless you've never repeated an outfit in your life or buy new clothes every day, this phrase might sound familiar to you:
I have nothing to wear!! I hate my clothes!!!
I've said that exact same words for the past couple of weeks... because it's true, i hate them :p.
So, what can I do?? Got 3 options:
1. Deal with it, pick an outfit with your eyes closed and don't look in the mirror for the rest of the day (yeah, haha, very funny)
2. Buy new clothes!! Nice... very nice... but what about the money you DON'T have... let's move on.
3. Reinvent your outfits... now this is interesting :).
Option number 3 is the easiest, inexpensive way to wear your same clothes all over again without looking like a freaking photograph!
First you need to stop doing, just like I had to do, the matchy-matchy thing. I mean, it's ok to want to wear accessories that match the colors on your shirt but, if you want to look different, it's time to change that.
An easy way to stop this is to dress with contrasting colors! This will not only make you stand out and feel completely different about the same T you wore last week, but it will also add interest to your outfit!
I stumbled upon a wonderful website that is actually made to combine colors for, well... a website. Still, it works perfect to create new outfits, only keeping in mind you might want to start by picking a neutral base color in your shirt like:
- White
- Black
- Navy
- Gray
- Brown
and then finding the right CONTRASTING colors to go with it!
I tell you, this has made wonders for me!! And since i've started like a week ago and i can't remember all the combinations, i just open the website everyday before i get dress and start mixing colors :D!
Here's the link, hope you find it useful as I did:
