Make a Wild Outfit Work!

5 fabulous pieces combined like magic! From one person's point of view these pieces definitely don't belong together.  Pish-posh! I styled this outfit based simply on the fact that it looks like fun and fashion is FUN! When mixing patterns and colors there should be 2 or 3 key elements that bring the look together to make it work. In this case the complimentary colors: mellow blue and tangerine bring some unity. The black collar and polka dots on this blouse are matched by the black belt and leather trim on these delicious Diane Von Furstenberg heels. If you're the person that is looking at this right now saying, "Oh wow, I would never wear that!", remember my rule # 7, "The people who can pull off anything are the people who do not put themselves in a box". Work it! :)
You can always count on Whitney Port for an interesting outfit. Here are two outfits she has put together and the key elements that make them funky, yet cohesive!
Whitney went out on a limb
with these wild tights. The
outfit came together with
the blazer, sequins, and hoes
all finding a home in the gray
family.
This is definitely not a look
just anyone would put together.
Whitney makes it look fun and
cohesive by choosing a big bold
pattern and layering it with a
small busy patterned dress. The
booties go in the same color
 scheme as the pinky purple dress
without matching perfectly.
A true art. My favorite thing
about the outfit is the different
silhouettes she created by
pairing different textures and
shapes. It's definitely not boring!
