STYLE: Be Careful with Metal
STYLE
Be Careful with Metal
One of the easiest ways to look pulled together, no matter if your style is casual or more formal, is to make sure that your metals don't clash.
It's easy to forget that the buttons on clothes and shoes, zippers, clasps on accessories, and our jewelry may be made of different metals. For example, brass fittings on a purse don't look good next to silver buttons on a jacket. While a few people may get away with electic, most of us just seem disorganized and somehow not quite together.
Worse are more obvious mismatches, such as when a silver necklace is worn with gold earrings. The only way to compensate is to find somewhere the two metals can be mixed--say, adding gold and silver braclets mixed together to complete the outfit.
To avoid having to put too much thought into the issue of metals, look for non-metal buttons on clothes, hidden closures on shoes, and purses without exposed metal fittings.
