Have you ever thought that wearing some colours makes you feel like a million dollars and other colours make you look the complete opposite? Everyone has a range of colours that look great on them and make their complexion and hair colour really glow.
CELEBRITY COLOUR BLOCKING
If you want to really look your best, you need to find out what your colours are and then use this knowledge when shopping for clothes and accessories. You could pay to visit a consultant who will be able to tell you what they are. Alternatively, you can find out which colours really suit you by doing a celebrity colour analysis. A celebrity is likely to have paid a stylist lots of money to analyse and work out which colours make them look stunning on the red carpet. All you need to do is find some pictures of your celebrity in a red carpet dress. Of course everyone is slightly different and you will never really know if a colours suits you unless you try it out.
So which celebrity do you look like?
Brooke Shields
Cynthia Nixon
Terri Hatcher
If you do not want to wear your colour from head to toe, try wearing a scarf around your neck or a necklace in one of your colours. The colours will reflect on your face and enhance your complexion. If pale pink is one of your colours try this handcrafted leather orchid necklace.
Colour Blocking refers to wearing 'blocks' or a combination of different solid
colours together in one outfit...I'm so in love with the trend, but it is important
to point out that colour blocking DOES NOT mean piling on every colour
you can find in your wardrobe...you'll end up looking like a human rainbow.
To get the colour block trend right, you have to know which
colours complement each other...The wheel below should be able to help
COLOUR BLOCK TREND WHEEL:
How to use the Colour Wheel
When colour blocking your outfits, try out these combinations:
*Analogous colours, which are any three colours lined up next to each other on the colour wheel. Example: blue, blue-violet and violet.
*Analogous colours, which are any three colours lined up next to each other on the colour wheel. Example: blue, blue-violet and violet.
*Complementary colours. These are colours placed directly opposite each other on the wheel. Like red and green or yellow and violet.
*90 degree angles. Combine colours that are at a right angle with each other. Example: Orange-yellow and green or red and violet.
*T colours. These are colours that form a 'T' shape. Like yellow, purple and orange-red.
*Jewel Colours are equally rich and flatter each other, such as emerald green and ruby red.
*Keep colours in the same saturation. Pastels with pastels, neons with neons.
*Pink trick. You can substitute 'pink' for 'red' and use all the same combinations.

RUNWAY COLOUR BLOCKING TREND
COLOUR RIOT
Lets face it..colour Blocking is not for everyone!!!! Naturally, we all quickly jump at trends and overstep the boundaries and look back at pictures with disgust...asking ourselves 'did I come out of my house dressed like that?'.......I would advise if you want to follow this trend of colour blocking...make sure you use the wheel above and If you're still a little colour shy, you can start off with a bright handbag, necklace, head band or belt. This trend is such a fun and exciting way to experiment with different colour combinations. It's up to you to interpret it according to your personal style.
And Refrain from combining colours like this:
