Statement Accessories & Clashing Colors

概要

上次我们讨论了怎么穿撞色。今天谈谈另外一个撞色的小技巧：除了使用中间色以外，配饰在撞色中也非常重要。

一般说来，穿撞色的时候配饰要尽量简单。除非你品味超群，最好少用亮晶晶的吸引眼球的配饰，因为那样就看起来太busy了。用一两个大号的能增强整体感的手镯　项链或者耳环可能会是个好主意。

比如这身打扮里面，resin的大项链(Anthropologie)就非常重要，里面既有上衣(Free People)的珊瑚红，也有裤子(JCrew)的绿色 ，能够把不搭边的上下两件拧在一起，于是整体感就出来了。

题外话，我发现Anthropologie家的配饰挺不错的，建议大家有空经常看看。


We talked about how to wear clashing colors last time. Today I'm here to show another important tip to make clashing colors work together. Besides neutral colors, statement accessories are also instrumental in creating a harmonious outfit of clashing colors.

When you wear clashing colors, you'd better keep your jewelry simple, just as I did in my red+green post. Unless you are really confident about your taste, you'd better keep "bling blings" (shiny diamonds / CZ / rhinestone accessories) to a minimum. They tend to create distraction and noise in your overall look. Instead, pick one piece of large chunky bracelet / necklace or one pair of chunky earrings that blends in and provides a sense of continuity through the clashing colors.

Take a look at this outfit: I used a chunky resin necklace (Anthropologie) that has both coral and green that united the coral top (Free People) and green shorts (JCrew) and created a continuous look in the outfit.

BTW I find Anthropologie has a good collection of unusual accessories. Keep an eye on it! :)
