oh happy summer~ 🙃
Let's talk about mismatched outfits.
When mixing colors in an outfit, choose colors that have the same amount of saturation for a more uniform combination.
✨ Saturation: the brilliance and intensity of a color
✨ Tint: a color that has been lightened by adding white
✨ Tone: a color that has been lightened or darkened by adding grey
✨ Shade: a color that has been darkened by adding black
When colors are mixed with white, grey, or black, the saturation is altered. You can play with this concept when pairing colors in your outfits. Using colors that are similar on the saturation spectrum can create more cohesion while intentionally pairing a more saturated garment with less saturated pieces can help you to draw attention to the more bold and brightly saturated garment.
In this look, the purple skirt is toned down with grey and because my top is similarly a grey shade, the two pieces complement each other.
