make boring outfits interesting with this one styling tip

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Ciao everyone! Today I'm sharing one of my favourite styling tools - styling with high and low contrast. Styling with contrast colours, styles, and proportions is a great way to add interest to boring outfits, make classic outfits more interesting and styled, and add personality to a capsule wardrobe. I hope you like this styling tool to create more outfits out of what you already have!
Thank you as always for watching!

    Heck yes please to more detailed videos on high vs low contrast dressing with these different elements of style! That delineation of harmony vs drama is a lovely, poetic way of seeing our outfits and helps to move along the spectrum to suit how we feel each day 😃

    I would do the opposite of what you personally are. Are you high contrast? Say blonde hair, but dark eyes? Go low contrast in your clothes to tone that down.

    I love mixing styles - a classic blazer with a concert tee, a sweet dress with a Moto jacket. Would love to see more inspo! With the focus on Kibbe, Kitchener and the like there can be some pigeon (and rabbit) holes when it comes to style. We’re beautifully diverse, creative humans that can use these as tools, but there’s more to it. Lastly, Alyssa, my deepest gratitude to you for showing models with diverse physical abilities. Just because I may not move gracefully and without assistance it doesn’t mean I don’t love beauty and style.

    Hi Alyssa,, I just wanted to extend a very big thank you to you, because for the first time in my life, I completely understood how styles are put together. You have no idea how much I appreciate this 10 min video. Please make three separate videos to explain contrast in proportions, in colour and in mixing styles. I personally love mixing Romantic style with a bit of Rock 'n' Roll, like leather biker jacket with small floral print midi skirt. Kindly include modest styles as well for those of us that cannot show skin. Many thanks in advance. I look forward to your videos.

    This weekend I saw a _young_ man pull off an all-black 3-pc "suit" (sports coat, buttoned-up vest, trouser) with spanking clean white sneakers. White shirt, patterned bow-tie, and pin (not pocket square) created balance and harmony. Best outfit I've seen in a while.

    You helped me name one of the (current) only style sticking points I have. Everyone loves me in strong colors. But I err to tonal neutrals. But now I know that’s because I’m very dramatic in proportions and style era/mood mixing so doing color too is just too much. And that lays that one to rest! Thanks

    This makes so much sense and helps bring clarity to how I dress.💡 I tend to like higher contrast colors together on me (usually can be found in black and white), but my pieces are very basic…crew necks, button downs, basic jeans, turtlenecks, high waisted slacks all in neutral -or randomly very bold-colors, but I don’t necessarily FEEL like I dress boring day to day I think now b/c I’m usually going high contrast in color. And on the days I feel extra dramatic, I’m usually playing up proportions or textures too, but always putting together my very basic pieces in different ways. Mind blown. Like you’re already doing it, but you have no idea you’re doing it. 🤣 So helpful for future purchases.

    Loved this Vlog. Sometimes you talk about things that I am trying to work on. So this was helpful. I find I look best in high contrast colours especially in winter. Black is not my best colour but I find if I wear a bright scarf or golden jewellery with the black it looks good. So for bright/light paired with Dark. In summer I create contrast in more subtle ways involving shape. I'm so happy you are going to expand on this subject. BTW you look lovely in your Tee and the Red lip❤x

I like some drama, but I'm small so perhaps that means I can achieve it easily. Love the content.

Making a habit of giving the new item time, could help me shop less and appreciate what I have more. I would love to see how you personally style new items, your methods, trials and errors, where you go for inspiration, etc.
