“What should I wear?”
The days of matchy match are over. The white shirt and khaki pants are caput (spell check?). It’s all about coordinating! Yes I understand this is a scary situation to be in, since I will admit not all (and myself at times) aren’t as fashion forward as others, but it doesn’t have to be scary.
Think of this scenario – If I were to tell you that your best friend that you haven’t seen in 10 years is coming to visit, hasn’t met your husband or children, and wants to go to the park so the kids can run and have fun…what would you wear? Basically you are going to not only LOOK amazing but FEEL amazing as well
Coordinating…what does that mean?
Definition: To form a pleasing combination.
Real life: Go to your favorite store, I will use Target as an example.
1. Find an amazing outfit for yourself, one that
you would buy and actually wear again.
Think layers (shirt, jacket, belt, etc), shoes,
accessories, this is wear you can add a little
pop of color that can tie into what the others
are wearing.

2. Go to the mens section (I always have
difficulty in this area) find a shirt that goes
well and is pleasing to the eye with your
outfit. If he wears jeans let him wear jeans. If
he likes button up shirts, let him wear those.
Keep it simple.

3. Next is the childrens department (my
favorite). Here you can mix it up a little.Take
colors that are in your clothing or accessories
and coordinate them with theirs.

Basically – think of all the clothing as if it’s ONE OUTFIT and does it go well together?! (if you need further assistance check out this page for ideas!)
One last note : PLEASE AVOID SOLID WHITE SHIRTS especially for outdoor pics – thanks :)
