This guide will teach you how to make your clothes look layered. You’ll need to know how to style tops and bottoms, as well as know about different colors that go well together. You can adapt these outfits into any color combination that you can think of, so long as it looks good and is not too basic.
When designing your outfits, keep in mind that having clothes that match each other will add a layer of attractiveness to your look. If you are shopping for clothes online, choose colors that go together and are not too bright. You should also try to avoid patterns that will clash, as you can sometimes see them as a distraction.
Classically, layered looks are the ones that have multiple layers on top, it can be a top under a jacket, a heavy scarf with a cardigan styled with a simple tee, etc. In today’s post you are about to see some of the favorite ideas you can implement in your everyday lifestyle.
Make your outfits relaxed and simple. Try not to wear clothes that are too tight or revealing on their own, and remember keeping them neutral will also give you versatility when designing your looks.
Here are some simple tips to follow when dressing for an event where you want to look layered:
-Wear a patterned shirt with a solid-colored skirt or pants. Don’t wear a patterned shirt with another patterned cardigan, as that will make you look like you are wearing two patterns.
-When trying to create the layered look, choose your bottoms and tops according to your personal taste. You can use any color of pants and tops to achieve the look, so you should be flexible.
-Try wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a short-sleeved top in another color. This will create a layered look while still keeping a cool, comfortable appearance.
You can wear your tops in different kinds of ways; you can wear them loosely or close to your body, or even tucked in. You should also consider how you will tie your blouse and tuck it into your bottoms.
When you are working on creating your layered look, you must watch out for the grainline. This means that you are either too high or too low on your body, and trying to hide this will be impossible. If you want the full impact of your look, make sure that every layer sticks to your body and isn’t too low or won’t fit properly.
When looking to create your layered look, try using different colors in each layer. You should try to keep your top light-colored while trying to make your bottom darker. This helps create a more interesting look and makes the outfit more creative.
The shirt you wear underneath should have a round neck or the collar of your dress should be big enough to cover it.
Dressing for winter isn’t all about layering sweaters and jackets on top of your outfit. You can also use a turtleneck or a cami tank underneath the outfit to create layers. Make sure whatever you wear under the top isn’t too bulky or fluffy because that will make it harder to tuck into the pants or a skirt.
Some tips:
-Don’t wear anything tight where you don’t want your rolls to show.
-Avoid wearing anything white if you are tucking your bottoms into black boots because of the bad contrast and the risk of staining.
-You can wear a wide belt to cover up a bit of your waistline. If you wear denim jackets with your dress then add a black belt to add another layer.
-Wearing two shirts or jackets can make your waistline look smaller and give you an hourglass shape.
Never settle for the first thing you find in your closet. Be sure to try on different things that will look great together. Make sure you grab items that are in season and the colors complement each other well. You should also avoid clothes with wild patterns, of course if you know how to wear them, then it is okay. Keep it simple. Aside from the colors, you want the textures of the materials to be similar.
Match up your color combinations too. If you are wearing a dress that is red, try to apply it with an accessory that is similar in colors such as your belt or shoes. Something that adds a pop of color will make your outfit pop more than what it would have naturally. A pop of a contrasting or complementary color will give you an interesting combination. If you don’t have any accessories, try wearing two different pieces that have the same color.
