The Ultimate Wardrobe Guide: Thou Shall Never Wear Black

It's just not hot. It makes your skin look grey, and is simply unflattering to 99% of you. Did you know that the right shade of coral will make your skin glow?


Find the colors and nuances that suite your complexion the best, and have fun with mixing and matching! Very few colors look bad together, the biggest mistake is to pair a color with BLACK. (Huge no no!)

Do you have a favorite color??

Happy Weekend!!

enig, er så lei av alle de sorte klærne mine!
må bruke mer farger:)

I LOVE color too, and I try to wear a lot of it! It's not so difficult when here in Florida, but when traveling, black seem to be easier...

AND when in Scandinavia, so many people are wearing black and grey, if you want to "fit in" black seem to be the way to go, no?

Henriette - kast de rett ut!

Natasha - I actually think beige is typically Scandinavian (horrid imo), but I actually think you can wear whatever you'd like. You would not be frowned upon ;)

Agneta - Thank you so much! Huge compliment, coming from you :D :D

jeg har akkurat kjøpt meg en knall lilla bluse fra zara,
overrasket meg selv med det kjøpet, i og med at jeg vanligvis nesten bare bruker sort... foreløpig henger den trygt godt gjemt i skapet, men lover å bruke den miiinst en gang denne sommeren ;)

i agree about the coral thing, but am totally opposed to shunning black. i love it! most of my wardrobe is black!
