打破所谓的时尚规则 走个性路线

4. Never wear red if you're a redhead.

This one might have some basis in reality, but it only applies to a few people in certain situations.

It's true that some redheads shouldn't wear some shades of red, but it's false that they can't wear red at all. If you have red hair, you need to be careful to choose reds that work with your natural coloring. The wrong shade can look too intense, and can clash with your skin. It's as simple as that.

At the end of the day, though, if you know the best colors for you, you can avoid shades of red that don't work, and wear the ones that do. The idea that you can't wear red at all is completely FALSE!

5. You can't wear suede or leather in summer.

Another false one. Really, who comes up with this stuff?

I don't know about you, but I would be LOST without my leather bag in the summer. Most of the world's best shoes and purses are made out of leather, so it really makes no sense that we wouldn't be able to wear them year round. Also, leather jackets are such a hot trend. It would be a shame to have to put them in the closet for 3 months!

If you're really worried about this one, just pick lighter weight fabrics and go with lighter colors of suede & leather for the summer months. Then switch back to your regular stuff for winter.

But really… the next time someone tries to convince you this rule is true, just laugh and ask if you can borrow their most expensive designer bag for summer, since they won't be using it. Then see what they have to say.


6. Never mix metals in your wardrobe.

This rule basically says that you should never wear gold and silver jewelry together, or god forbid, wear something that has both gold and silver on it! How boring.

Nowadays, it's safe to forget all about it. With all the cute jewelry and metallic accessories out there, it would be a shame to only wear them with some pieces. Metallics are the new neutrals, and you can wear them with whatever you want. Don't be afraid to layer gold, silver and bronze bangles together, or wear silver flats when you have gold earrings on. It's totally up to you and not wrong at all!

Of course, some people have a preference for one type of jewelry over the other. For example, gold doesn't look good on my cool-toned pale skin, so I only wear silver and white gold jewelry. It's okay to have a preference, but don't ever think that you can't wear what you want because it's not "allowed".

7. Never wear tights with open-toed shoes.

Now that tights and peep-toe shoes are both in style, women everywhere are happily ignoring this rule.

That's right, you can totally wear tights with open-toe shoes. Just tuck the seam of the tights under your toes, and make sure it doesn't show. It’s a great way to get more mileage out of your wardrobe, because you can wear your peep-toe heels in winter!
