Color Wheel: 3 Ways To Match Brown With Green

Hi ladies,
        I have 3 great ways for you to pair green with brown. The color green ranges from very dark to very, very light. The idea is to use the lightest shade of green possible when pairing it with brown.

•  A green dress, two-toned sandals, two-toned earrings, and a nice clutch. Any shift  brown dress would be easy to pair with those accessories also.
• A single-breasted jacket, tank top tucked into some Capri pants, open toe shoes with a regular handbag.
• A print pencil skirt, with a solid brown blouse, brown pointy toe heels, and satchel handbag.

Outfit Ideas: A Great Way To Accessorize Your Little Orange Dress.

            High low skirts are this season’s must have. This little orange dress can be worn for an everyday chic look or you can dress it up with your pumps for a more sophisticated look. I love the layering at the hems and the flower details around the neck.  It’s always good to have a great hat in your closet during summer time. It’s good to protect both your skin and your hair. The ballet flats and the other accessories complete the look.

Color Wheel: How To Match Brown with Pink and Orange

 Hi friends, 
            I am pairing Pink and Orange with Brown today. Orange is already from the brown family, which makes it even easier to match these two colors. You get orange by mixing red and yellow. There are different shades of orange.  We have Persian orange which is a light brown, then we have brown itself. 

Pairing orange & pink  with brown:

1.  A two-toned orange dress, light brown shoes, dark brown clutch for a formal event like a wedding.
2. Orange top, two-piece brown suit, black shoes  for work.
3. A pink dress, peach orange purse, brown shoes, for a dinner night.
4. Brown jeans, pink/orange top, two-toned (leopard, cheetah) pumps, brown belt for a girls’ night out
5. You can mix and match pink, orange,  and brown whichever way you want for any casual look.

Any ideas?

How To Use Mustard Seeds To Grow Your Hair

Mustard Seecd Oil for Hair Growth

         Mustard seed oil contains essential fatty acids and omega 3 fatty acids. These nutrients help to condition the hair. This natural conditioner allows the hair to grow stronger and reduces the risk of dry hair, split ends, and hair breakage. Mustard seed oil contains nutrients that help to stimulate hair growth while adding shine and luster to the hair. It also promotes scalp circulation, which makes hair grow faster and healthier.
       To use mustard seed oil for hair growth, you should massage the mustard oil into the scalp about three times weekly. Each time you apply it, you should try to leave it on for about three to four hours before rinsing. You can also leave it overnight. You should always rinse with a mild shampoo such as Essentious Exonerate Gentle Shampoo. By doing this weekly, in addition to your Hairfinity Hair Vitamins, you will achieve a healthier and stronger hair.
*Mustard seed oil can be easily found online and in most herbal or grocery stores.

Color Wheel: How To Pair Yellow With Brown

             The best way to pair brown with any color is to think of it as either a neutral color, or black because you can pair black with pretty much any other color. I learned at a very young age that there are two things you should never try to discuss; these things are taste and colors. My taste will never be yours and your color preference will never be mine. Pairing colors is all about perceptions. Brown may not be your color at all, but you might consider it if it is paired with a color that compliments it.

1. A yellow tank top or blouse under a two-piece suit ( pants or skirt) for work
2. A yellow dress with brown cardigan and brown shoes  for  a cocktail party
3. A yellow blouse with brown skinny jeans and flats for a day in the city
4. A Pair of Yellow shoes, a brown dress, a yellow belt for a dinner night in town
5. A pair of yellow shorts, brown T-shirts, black and yellow sneakers for a casual look
6. A brown dress, yellow shoes, a yellow clutch purse for a more formal affair.

Speak your mind.
