The fashion industry tends to get a bad reputation, being labeled as
frivolous, unnecessary and dangerous to the ‘inner beauty’ concept. There is
also the idea that there are certain ‘rules’ that all fashionistas must hold
sacred. But rules are meant to be broken. Here are 20 myths about how to be
fashionable and the fashion industry in general that are simply not true.
1. You can’t mix
patterns – While this is not wholly untrue, it depends on how you pair
them. If you’re going to mix patterns, pick sober colors that don’t contrast.
The trick is to make sure that the patterns are the only things that stand out.
2. Wearing
white-on-white is the drabbest outfit you could think of – One word: ACCESSORIZE. Wear big chunky jewellery, or perhaps a pair of bright feather
earrings. Wearing white is classy and simple and your accessories simply add a
splash of color to an otherwise complete outfit. Make sure that, it you are
wearing two white pieces together, they are of the same shade.
3. Navy blue and black
just don’t go together – Everything matches with black! However, navy blue
and black work better when you add another color to the mix. For example,
pairing a blue blazer with a white shirt and black trousers. You could also opt
for brighter, bolder blues such as cobalt and sky blue.
