The Art of Looking Elegant, Effortlessly

It does not seem fair, but some women without apparent fuss always manage to look elegant. It does not matter what the function - a stroll through the park with their dog, a special event or grocery shopping. Somehow, no matter what the time of day or night, they look simply superb. Annoyingly, these women do not even look as if they have spent literally hours trying to find the right look, the right combination of accessories and clothing, the right color match. It all looks effortless.

Yet, there is no secret. If you want to look elegant without an immense effort, you need to be mindful of these basic rules: keep it simple, wear only quality items and choose the combination of colors and patterns wisely. It is essential to be able to balance patterns and color choice if you want to look chic and sophisticated.

A patterned dress is often best left for summer days. Like basic white, these floral and other designs are associated with this season. When you need to layer, however, plain hues and styles are best, To add a dash of color or a splash of interest wear a patterned item or accessory. Teaming a basic dress or simple pant suit with a magnificently patterned silk scarf or shawl creates a look that is both tasteful and elegant. If, however, you combined the same patterned scarf with a similarly designed dress or outfit, the result is esthetically questionable - messy, indistinct.

Selecting colors consists of one of two ways. You either pick matching or contrasting colors. Keep in mind when doing so that you never match certain colors. The old proviso remains for combining brown and black, and black and navy blue.

The wonderful thing is that if you select hand painted women's silk scarves or shawls, finding the right shade to match or contrast is easy. For example, take a simple blue dress in an unusual shade. Look at the selection of hand dyed silk scarves and hand painted shawls. The hues emerging are the result of a careful process encompassing all the colors and shadings of the spectrum. You will never see this in mass-produced accessories. Choose one containing the same shade of blue in your dress. This will pick up the blue in your dress and all the other colors of the scarf will match. They have been created to blend in with the basic blue of your scarf. Make sure you wear a harmonizing pair of blue shoes and carry a similarly colored purse.

If your preference is for a contrasting color, make sure you look at the color wheel. Find your dress's color and pick the color opposite of it. For instance, if your outfit is yellow or reddish-orange, the wheel indicates purple and mauve are the most suitable contrasting colors.
