Top 5 Fashion Rules to Break

5. Matching Your Belt & Shoes

If there was ever a stupid rule, this was the one. Why in the world 
would you want to MATCH the two accessories? Now, have them 
compliment each other? Of course. A gold belt with a leopard shoe is 
fabulous, as is a teal and dark red belt/shoe combo. Experiment a little. 

4. Wearing White After Labor Day

If I had to extract all of the white out of my wardrobe for 6 months, 
I would probably die of frustration. White is the optimal color for 
winter and with the right accessories it can take your outfit to 
another level. It will be a refreshing look from the dull dark 
winter shades that are regularly worn.

3. Never Mix Metals In Your Wardrobe

Are you kidding me? I love metals. I feel like it's comparable to 
sweets: good in moderation. Rose Gold has become a beautiful 
stepping stone between medals and I totally support it 100%. 
Silver, bronze, rose gold, & gold bracelets? Yes please!

2. No Black Eyeliner or Red Lipstick during the day

Seriously? No. Those are my two favorite beauty products. Take it away and 
we will have a problem. My rule of thumb is generally 
if you have a dramatic eye, pair it with a neutral lip and vice-versa. Simple.

1. Petite Girls- Longer Hemlines

The best part about maxi styles is that if you can wear them high-waisted, 
you can literally create the illusion of length. By placing a belt as a 
cinching element around your torso, you visually shift your waistline 
there, elluding to longer legs. Fitting is key and solid or fine patters work best.
