MEAGHAN SMITH PERSONAL STYLIST

A metallic shoe acts in the same way as a nude shoe – it’s neutral – and therefore pretty much works with everything.

If you picture this outfit above with black shoes, they’d probably be too heavy.  The lighter gold shoe, is just right.

If you tend to always choose a black shoe because they’re safe, (And you think they go with everything – which is not right) challenge yourself to try something different.

If you’re worried about wearing cropped pants or jeans because you think it will shorten your legs, one way to extend the leg line visually, is to find a way to highlight your waist.

(I know that belting the waist doesn’t work for everyone, but it doesn’t need to be a belt – there are other ways to draw attention to the waist area)

*Notice also how the shoes are helping to lengthen the legs.

One of my summer style goals is to get my fingernails into great shape so I can paint them red.

I love the impact a painted nail can have on an outfit, particularly when highlighted against basic pieces like a white shirt, a navy and white striped tee or a black knit.

And while I never paint my finger nails I almost always paint my toes.   My current favourite’s are Revlon Chilli and Chanel Rouge Noir.

Keep in mind painting your nails,  just like wearing  a brightly colored lip, is another way to decorate your clothes.
