How To Wear Peach And Tan


Perfect Colors for April! No matter the type of skin tone you have you can still wear these colors, it is just about how you wear them. If you have a lighter complexion then you will not wear a allover peach dress. Instead, wear tan on the top and touches of peach in your skirt or accessories (like these great shoes below). Make sure that the tan color you wear is a warmer hue color than the peach, as you want to even out your skin tone and not look washed out.

For people with a darker skin tone then you can play around with these colors. Example, wear a overall peach dress with tan accessories and shoes. Make sure your make-up also reflects your wardrobe. If you are wearing soft colors then you also want to wear soft make-up. This season, let's each come out of our comfort zones and start to wear colors that we normally won't wear. Never should we hear "O that color doesn't look good on me" maybe it does, but you can still find a way to incorporate colors into your wardrobe as fashion pieces or accessories that will not affect your complexion. Try it!

Email me photos of your outfits that you create, I would love to see different ideas that you are trying!  tosha@toshaclemens.com

Several Ways To Wear A Scarf

Scarves are a great accessory for any outfit. Unlike jewelry, you can wear the same scarf over and over by changing how you wear it. This will create several different looks. Only wear a printed scarf with a solid top or else you will look very top heavy. The goal is to create a balanced look. Sabina Les has a great illustration of how to take 1 scarf and turn it into 10!

Step 1. Fold the 36” large square scarf in half.
Step 2. Drape the newly made triangle over shoulders hanging more on one side and loosely twist the opposite side.
Step 3. Take the end and loosely loop one over the other, make a large knot and let the remaining scarf part hang as a tie in the front.
Step 4. Adjust the scarf so one side is draped over a shoulder and the arm and the opposite twisted side has a narrower about 2” wide strap look.

A Inner Glow!

I have been one to always obsess over my skin. I have extremely sensitive skin so trying new products on my face always makes me nervous. However, I have been in a season of my life that I am focusing more on my inner health. I have had acne most of my life and I have finally found the solution for me! You know that saying , "You are what you eat". Well I really believe that. I have seen my face transform and have a smooth glow that I have never seen before and it is all contributed to my diet. You know, feeling good about yourself has to come from the inside before we have the strength, will and desire to want to make changes on the outside. Here are some things that I am doing in this area.

Garden of Life is a great brand. They are organic. I have been taking green supplements for awhile now. It is a great source of chlorophyll which helps fight many illnesses and enhances energy.  It also helps your body to detox all the toxins, resulting in skin glowing with a renewed freshness.

If you would rather take liquid instead of supplements then I would recommend Wheatgrass as another option for greens. Some people have a hard time with the taste of it. I actually like it! Plus you only have to take 1oz a day. Wheatgrass is extremely beneficial for immunity support and energy. I can also tell a difference in my appearance when I drink wheatgrass daily.  Check out this website to read more about the benefits of wheatgrass. www.dynamicgreens.com

Cod Liver Oil is also another great source for skin repair. It is a great source of vitamins. Try taking a tablespoon of Cod Liver Oil daily. It has tons of other wonderful benefits as well. To learn more check out the website. http://www.homeremediesweb.com/cod-liver-oil-health-benefits.php

Hats Obession!

Ok ever since I watched the Royal Wedding, I have been obsessing over Hats! They are so fun and a great way to express yourself! No matter the occasion, you can find a hat that meets it. I love this collection by Bijou Van Ness.

Honeysuckle 2011 Color

At the end of last year, Pantone announced the IT color of 2011 as Honeysuckle. So, I'm sure you are seeing this color everywhere! Have you been wearing it? It is hard to avoid but what if this is not your color? Maybe you don't wear a shirt in this color but you could wear makeup or accessories with this color as an accent! I personally have lipstick and blush in this color and love it! This color will bring out your tan!
