Wearing fluorescent clothing is a fun and bold way to bring some color into your wardrobe. Below you will find some tricks to have an original and modern look.
Steps
Method 1 of 4: Casual Style
Step 1. Choose colors that go well with the color of your hair and complexion
To make things easier, try wearing the same colors as the clothes you already own, only brighter.
- If dark blue looks particularly good on you, try a very vibrant electric blue.
- Do you get a lot of compliments when you put on pink lipstick? Why not try wearing a fluorescent pink dress?
- If dark green makes your eye color stand out, try to see what happens with a brighter green.
Step 2. Try to combine fluorescent colors with bright neutral colors, such as beige or white
This combination will make neutral colors stand out and make fluorescent ones less strong. A beautiful pink leather skirt, combined with a normal white t-shirt, will create a simple, modern and original look.
Step 3. Add small splashes of color
A simple and romantic look can become a lot more interesting with just a small addition of color. Try wearing a fluorescent sports bra under a light, light top to make small but noticeable pops of color appear.
Step 4. Try on fluorescent jeans
You can find this much loved garment in all possible and imaginable colors. The jeans can be paired with any type of top and shoe to create ideal looks for any occasion.
- Wear a pair of neon jeans with a light-colored tee, denim jacket and plain ballet flats for an understated daytime look.
- Pair your fluorescent jeans with a neutral colored cotton blouse and a nice bag for a clean and sophisticated look.
- For a more elegant evening look, try combining your neon jeans with a smart print top, metallic high shoes and a handbag.
Step 5. Putting different fabrics together is a "Must" in the fashion industry
Take advantage of the seasonal changes to make very special combinations: try combining heavy and autumnal fabrics with fluorescent colors to give your look a little light.
- Pair an electric blue top with gray tweed pants for a chic look that's perfect for work.
- Try pairing a neon pink loose fit sweater with black dress pants and a heeled shoe to create a casual evening look.
Step 6. Choose a pair of shoes in a bright new color
You can find traditional models, such as oxfords, ballet flats and sneakers, in many bright and original colors. Wear them with a pair of jeans and other neutral or complementary colors.
Method 2 of 4: Formal Look
Step 1. Try on classic dresses with fluorescent colors
Dresses with classic cuts can be reinterpreted in a modern way thanks to the use of bright colors. This combination can be a very effective way to wear fluorescent colors with ease.
Step 2. When dressing for a little more formal occasions, avoid combining a fluorescent garment with a black garment, as the contrast may be a little too strong and make the look look rather dated
Why not opt for a black dress with small purple or electric blue inserts?
Step 3. Fluorescent coats can make a real difference
A colorful overcoat is really a great way to make a triumphal entry (or exit) and, when worn with black stockings, high heels, a simple hairstyle like a ponytail or bun, it can be more elegant and striking than the dress. that you carry below.
Step 4. Add some fluorescent shoes to your outfit
Whether you choose to wear orange ballet flats or shoes with high heels and electric blue inserts, make sure that what you wear on your feet enhances the whole outfit.
- Wear a pair of colorful shoes to bring out a classic black and white look.
- You don't have to combine shoes with accessories. Shoes and bag of the same color can make your look appear dated. Try wearing complementary colors instead, pairing green shoes with an orange bag or a blue belt with a yellow bag.
Method 3 of 4: Accessories
Step 1. Go easy on the accessories, but use them to bring some color - don't overdo it
- in your looks. If you wear black clothes, you can try wearing a fluorescent necklace or you can combine colored earrings with a simple and neutral look.
Step 2. Choose versatile accessories
During the winter months, fluorescent accessories such as socks, leggings, earmuffs or gloves can be useful to protect you from the cold, without sacrificing style.
Step 3. Don't forget your bag
You can find handbags and shoulder bags in a thousand bright colors. As with shoes, look for a bag that suits your look and occasion. If you prefer a bit of sobriety, why not opt for a smaller colored bag, like a clutch bag?
Method 4 of 4: Beauty
Step 1. Try to enhance your face
Fluorescent makeup can be a little scary, but combining neutral makeup with a pop of color on your eyes or lips can really make your look modern and vibrant.
- Combine bright tones with neutral tones. Put a strong color on the lips, if you wear a light and delicate dress; try a bold, fluorescent eye make-up if you're wearing a dark jacket and pants instead.
- If you've opted for fluorescent makeup, don't overdo it with your hair too. A simple ponytail or bun allows you to keep your hair tidy and bring attention to your face.
- Balance your makeup well. An excess of heavy and vibrant colors all over your face can make you look over the top and tacky. If you cast your hand on your eyes, be sure to stay light on your lips by using a natural tint. A red or pink lipstick stands out much more when paired with light, natural eye makeup.
Step 2. Try bright colors on your toenails and fingernails
Original colors, designs and decorations (never heard of rhinestones?) Are now on the agenda. Plus, fluorescent nail polishes are very trendy! To be daring, try Frenching your hands with fluorescent colors.
