Wearing black or all black is one of my favorite ways to feel stylish and sleek. This new year however, I have resolved to add more color to my closet and steer clear of black in an effort to branch out and challenge myself to be more daring. If we’re not changing we’re staying the same, right?

Keep Pieces Light
Thinner layers are the best way to avoid looking bulky. Steer clear of chunky knits and stick to two layers at a time.

Define the Waist
Add a belt to keep your shape when layering. Colorblocking will also help keep your waist from getting lost in the layers.

Layer with Black
When either the top layer or underneath layer is black, it gives a slimmer look overall.
