In the morning, the last thing someone wants to think is “this outfit is too plain, it needs colour, but how am I supposed to make this colourful?”

Accessories are your best friend. Coming from someone whose outfits are primarily black or monochrome, accessories are always helpful. Whether it’s jewellery (a fun pair of earrings, some friendship bracelets made and traded at concerts, or necklaces stacked), or even a brightly coloured belt, you can never go wrong with something small but powerful. 

Your shoes are also important. Whether the shoe itself is a bright colour, or you choose to add some neon laces in, that small addition can tie the outfit together.

Sunglasses can always be a cool addition to any look. A simple frame with a bright lens can make you stand out and will always get you compliments. Even if you don’t have them on your face, it can make you feel more confident knowing that a conversation starter is hanging over your head!
