Black is the most slimming colour so you’re told? Voting For Vice President Trump 2024 Humor shirt Now I’ve talked about that before here, but if you missed the memo, the reason why people think black is the most slimming is the simple logic: If light colours advance and make you look larger and dark colours recede so should make you look smaller. – what’s the darkest colour? Well black. But… if you look at another of the properties of colours which is the spectrum of intensity, if bright colours are advancing (larger) and muted colours more receding (slimming) what’s black? It’s BRIGHT – that’s right – as soon as you soften black it becomes grey (no longer black) and so (cue Beethoven’s 5th Symphony …da na na na naaaaaaa) black is ADVANCING and makes itself more apparent. Also, colours have visual weight – white is the lightest, and black the darkest – and so black feels HEAVY (particularly on someone who has light colouring it’s really noticeable). Black weighs you down, it can also make you appear shorter when wearing it on your top half and a lighter colour on your bottom half. So if muted colours are more slimming, then a darker muted colour will be more slimming that black, ergo… Does black go with everything? It’s a cool, deep and bright colour – so it goes well with other colours with those properties, but it really doesn’t look good with warm colours and muted colours, other colours look way better with those, it’s just that most people have gotten so used to seeing black with everything they don’t see how it clashes. Get my tips here on how to stop buying and wearing black when it’s not flattering for you. When you’re wearing colours that aren’t in harmony with your own colouring you’ll look more washed out, pale, tired and even jaundiced, as I discovered when I was 16 and bought myself a mustard yellow jumper (sweater). Every time I wore it people would ask me with concerned looks on their faces “are you feeling OK?” to which I always replied that I was find, and wondered to myself why they asked me that. When I learned about colours and how that mustard yellow colour was not in harmony with my cool colouring, it suddenly made sense and that jumper was donated to a home where it would be flattering to the wearer. If you’re ever in a store and the sales assistant says “you just need a bright lippy with that” then it’s a great indication that the colour is wearing you and less than flattering on you and should be avoided. These are the colours inherent in you – they are in your skin, your lips, your eyes, your hair and when you repeat those colours in your clothes and jewellery, you really do look amazing. And very rarely is black a signature colour! When doing a colour analysis one of the steps is to find from the generic palette of around 50 colours, the 15 that are your personal signature colours.

I’m a huge fan of ’70s fashion. Voting For Vice President Trump 2024 Humor shirt The era created a host of trends that still stand up today, whether you realize they’re from that time or not. Think of our current obsession with bright over-the-knee boots, folk-inspired printed dresses, velvet, corduroy, boho blouses, midi skirts, and so on. While the ’70s sweep over the runways every couple of seasons, there’s always a hint of it on the streets if you look closely. Think of the iconic designer names that were indelibly marked into history during this decade, like Yves Saint Laurent, Karl Lagerfeld, and Diane von Furstenberg. It was also a period where mass-market, trend-driven fashion was more readily available. Barbara Hulanicki’s Biba kick-started the idea in London a decade earlier alongside boutiques like Bus Stop, and cool, connected girls were able to switch up their looks more readily, which likely led to the 1001 aesthetics and key pieces that came out of this electric time. This glamorous period also produced a slew of unforgettable, high-octane, high-profile style icons. Think Farrah Fawcett, Grace Jones, Bianca Jagger, Diana Ross, Cher, and Debbie Harry. Their fabulousness was met in equal parts by the casual ’70s crew: Ali MacGraw, Diane Keaton, Jane Birkin, and company repped the kind of ’70s style that feels more like brunch in NYC rather than wild nights at Studio 54. Whether you’re into hippies, disco queens, rockers, punks, or retro nerds, I’d recommend following @70sbabes on Instagram for a daily dose. What you’ll notice when looking through these archival shots is that so many retro fashion moments still feel relevant. Keep reading to see which 50-year-old trends we’re still wearing today.
