We tend to pair clothing that compliments, contrasts, or matches well with each other but neglect fitting our own colouration into the formula. There are a specific set of shades, tints, and tones that best flatter our physical features. To determine our set or "personal colour" we must look at our eye colour, skin tone, and hair hue. In detail, the skin tone comprises of the overtone (surface colour) and undertone (accent) and can be quite difficult to determine. From what I've gathered, our overtone ranges from dark to pale skin, while the undertone leans in favour of cool colours (blue, green, purple) or warm colours (red, orange, yellow). One method to find the undertone is to look at the metal of our watches. The people who tend to wear silver metals may have a cool undertone. The people who prefer gold may have a warm undertone. I advise you to find a local Image Consultant and take a Personal Colour Analysis. This is where an expert drapes different sets of

For the most part, the suit and tie is regarded at a higher level of formality. However, you could still don a full suit casually with the following 5 considerations: choosing elements of a suit that are deemed informal, feeling more comfortable by unfastening buttons, loosening up the tie, displaying less accessories and wearing wider and flatter shoes. To offset the formality of the suit, you should choose features and items that are deemed casual in their selected departments. For example, a dark navy cashmere knit tie with no interlining (thin and less stiff), and a square end, can be said to be a casual tie (for a navy tie). Furthermore, an unstructured suit is a casual suit because of the following elements: no shoulder pads, lining, and limited canvas interfacing. As a result, the suit forms to the body and is susceptible to wrinkling (in the areas of motion). Coupled with a textured fabric and you have one contradicting suit (in-between casual and formal). For instance, a

I bought the “Time Long Coat” from Magnoli Clothiers in the “Wool Blend” (75% Wool/ 25% Cashmere), “Dark Brown” colour with “Blue” striped lining. I adored the 10th Doctor and wanted to dress like him. However, I didn't want to cosplay; I wanted to embody the spirit and design of the tenth doctor into my everyday wear. The reason why I chose the wool blend instead of the faux suede is this train of thought: I wanted a natural material that is more hard-wearing than faux suede. I have nothing against the material and the look of faux suede. If anything faux suede looks even better than the wool blend. I was simply thinking that the wool would work better in terms of warmth and longevity for daily wear in rain or shine. I chose a dark brown colour because I wanted to be slightly different from the tenth doctor's design. Furthermore, the “Golden Rod” colour did not work as well for me compared to dark brown (what with my complexion and my black hair). Overall, the colour of

I had bought many clothes throughout the years that I do not own anymore. As a result, what I've learned from that as many others could relate, is a finer sense of personal style. What are you comfortable of wearing? What do you like and dislike? How do you like garments to fit and feel? Ideally, you want to discover these aspects without wasting time and money. However, it may be necessary to have had these experiences in order for you to discover your preferences. In the end, you should think of it as a test of your personal style because you want to buy and be satisfied with your purchase period. Realistically, nothing lasts forever, yet if you think about it when was the last time that you disposed of a garment due to rips, holes, and fades? Thus, wear out your carefully chosen clothes for what you have to gain and lose from a purchase is more substantial than you may think.
