When trying something different goes right

Sometimes my outfits can be so matchy-matchy. I can have a hard time putting together an outfit that includes more than two colors. Most of the time, in an effort to always look crisp and cohesive, I pair black with a pop of color. Sometimes it's just black and white, and other times it's more colorful.

But when I was putting together this outfit, I was looking for a way to break my normal pattern. And since summer is here (yay!), it's the perfect time to experiment with your personal style.

Take this outfit: I've got on a knitted, beige tank, white denim pants and blue denim sandals. It's not matchy at all, but it still works. Putting together these kinds of outfits takes time and thought. It won't just happen!
