THE STYLING TRICK: OUTFIT LINKING
Ever look at someone and think, "that outfit just works," but you can't say why?
It's probably outfit linking.
It's a simple idea. Take one thing, a colour, a print, a texture, a line, even a small design detail, and let it show up a few times in the same look.
Gold hardware on your bag, echoed in your earrings. A chain print, repeated in an actual chain necklace. The tan n your leopard print, picked up again in your boot.
Nothing needs to match exactly. It just needs to speak to something else in the outfit. That's the difference between an outfit that's thrown on and one that feels considered.
Next time you get dressed, try it. See what changes.
