STYLING: HOW TO COLOR BLOCK

3:06 AM

Holla! 
*Knocks Gently*






Its amazing how fast this year is running. To think that we only said "Happy New year " just yesterday, na wa oo...
How you all doing?
I explained in my last post, how busy I have been and also how I feel I have lost weight 
So you be the judge, lolol *coversface* 
These days mehn...I am Las(T) man on jist ooo.. Please update me on the lastest gist in town.
Who gave birth, Who is owing who, who is getting married etc...lolol
Although I tried keeping up with the ones I read over the weekend sha.
About today's post,
This was the outfit I wore to church on Sunday and I wanted to do some color blocking. 
So, I wore a purple top on a burgundy skirt.
Did you notice I bought  new bag? *now doing Shoki*
In wearing color blocking outfits, there are just few simple rules to follow.
*Don't over accessories. You are already wearing too much color, so piling on accessories that don't contrast, you will look a bit too much.
*Wear color of different shades and undertone, avoid wearing same shade. Its like wearing a mustard color shoe on a yellow gown. This color have similar undertone so they wont seat well. 
Let people know what is complementing what.
*Also note that the 3rd or 4th color must complement the other look. (which is the whole reason for the look) If you get a bit confuse there, I will advise earth tone colors, black or nudes as they wont over power the other colors.
There you have it!
How do you color block?
Outfit Details: Everything worn was gotten from Lagos Island

Oh, I'm giving away $200 Target giftcard (open worldwide) on my blog. May those that are owing can bet on using that as collateral if they win. Anyhow, thank you for your comments on my blog.
