The Other 1%

We all know that there are some old-school fashion rules that no longer apply.

• White after Labor Day
• No suede in spring and summer
• Matching your bag to your shoes
• Not mixing metals (OK, I am  still a fan of wearing 1 metal)

No more rules - What I prefer are guidelines

There are many guidelines I recommend to my clients, (and I adhere to myself) for what I think is a more stylized look. They help keep proportions, don’t compete with other items you are wearing and can simply be the touches that make an outfit look substantially better.

Oh sorry, are you asking for those tips?  Because that is not really the focus of this piece. However, if I have whet your appetite, you may want to check out   How to Style a difficult item in 5 easy steps.
