FAF Style Guide: Mixing and Matching

Hands down purple is my favorite color; as I'm sure you can tell by the blog colors lol. As of late I have been experimenting with  ways to mix and match colors and patterns. Now that the weather is colder I am also doing a lot more layering. I use purple as my base color and then I usually find other color options that compliment. I have been experiment with mixing leather, sequins, or feathers with more straight-laced pieces to create the perfect fashion contrast. Adding different accessories and shoes goes a long way towards achieving great contrast as well. I played around and came up with a few looks to illustrate the concept of mixing and matching.
