Redheads Set the Fashion Trend

By Valerie Mellema

If everyone would follow in the steps of redheads, we would all look great. Redheads are about the only women that take time to shop and buy clothes that goes with their hair color. Most women shop for fashion and forget all about color. Not buying the right color clothes can make you look washed out. A sweater that brings out your hair and skin color can make all the difference in the world.

The reason that redheads are so particular when they shop is because they know they have to shop for clothes that bring out the beauty of their hair. Blacks and purples can make them look pale, whereas browns, greens, some pastels and blues can make them look lively and fun.

Depending on their color of red, many redheads can get away with wearing red as well. Nicole Kidman got away with it in Moulin Rouge. Not only did she get away with it, she looked stunning. If you have red hair and other people are telling you that you can’t wear red, go the store and try on different shades of red. You will be surprised at how wrong your friends and family can be.

The trick to matching shades of red with your hair, is also matching your skin tone. You may have pink or yellow skin tones and this will greatly affect the colors you wear, including red. Once you decide whether you look best in a deep red or an orange-red color, then buying a suit and wearing it to work will make you look confident and secure.

Even guys need to watch their clothes choice. Men with red hair can not get a way with a purple shirt if it does not bring out their undertones and makes them look pale. Guys who want to be fashionable have to be choosy too. Many people think that guys can get away with anything. Most of the time they can, but not if they have red hair and go to work in a gray shirt. Guys with red hair should follow the same color coding as women. Brunettes and blonds should heed the advice of redheads; wear the colors that you look best in, not the colors that are your favorite.
