Some helpful styling tips, as well as things to avoid.
Styling Tips
Family Colour Palette: Choose 2-3 colours in a colour palette and sprinkle in some neutrals to avoid matching too much.
Accessories/Layers: Jewelry, sweaters, cardigans, vests, knee highs. scarfs, bows, fun shoes can help coordinate a specific colour across multiple people.
Jeans: If Blue isn’t one of your colours in your palette then look to other pant styles other than jeans. If you are going for an all neutral look, or a lot of earth tones, use complimentary coloured chinos such as olive, burgundy, khaki, grey, etc.
Patterns: It’s ok to mix patterns if they are in the same colour palette. Daughter in florals, and dad in a striped dress shirt under his sweater.
Things to Avoid
Don’t overly match: Coordinate instead. Choosing 3 colours instead of 2 will allow you to tie in more variety.
Bright Neon Colours: Neon colours can be distracting and cause colour casts on your skin.
Large Logos or Loud Patterns: They are too distracting and take away from the main focus.
Everyone in Jeans: Change it up with different colours or styles of pants (or skirts/dresses)
Athletic Tennis Shoes: If your family is wearing Athletic leisure then go for it. But, if not dress the part from head to toe. If you have matching outfits but a child is wearing shoes with bright neon laces, it can throw off the entire look. Instead, choose converse, loafers, boots, dress shoes, or sandals.
