Wear yellow means brighter days for everyone |
Celebs on the red carpet have gone nuts over yellow lately, but you don't have to be famous to pull off this bright look. Here are some easy tips to help you look your best in yellow. |
- Wearing yellow is as easy as (lemon) pie as long as you keep a few things in mind. The key to looking good in yellow is making sure you wear the right shade of yellow for your skin tone.
-
- In general, yellow is big in three shades this summer: a buttery pastel yellow, bright canary yellow, and a more sophisticated shade of marigold.
-
- Butter yellow, in my opinion, is the hardest color to pull off. If you're pale skinned, it can easily make you look washed out. While it looks great on anyone with a nice medium tan, a buttery dress can also be too much contrast for darker skin tones.
-
- Luckily, accessories are always the exception to the rule: if you have dark hair, a pale yellow hat or headband can look very pretty and a buttery tote or pair of sandals is another way you can't miss.
-
- If you're more daring and want to go for a full pale yellow ensemble, it can be done even if you have lily white skin.
-
- Cate Blanchett, for example, pulled off this feat when she was dubbed the best-dressed at the 2005 Oscars. Her pale yellow Valentino gown exactly matched her hair color and was stunning! Notice that she also wore a crimson sash and bright lips to break up the color.
