It’s always a good time to shine, but it’s harder to pull off a glittering afternoon look than a sparkling evening look. That’s why we’ve created this quick guide to dazzling in the daytime. It’s full of insider tips and tricks, plus plenty of celeb and street style examples. Best of all, it reveals Miranda Kerr’s supermodel secret to wearing whatever you want, whenever want.
So, how does Miranda Pull off wearing a sequined dress in the middle of the day? She simply juxtaposes it with strong leather accessories.
Juxtaposition is a fierce fashionista trick that will help you look fabulous for every occasion. Whether you want to pile on crystal bangles or slip on bedazzled stilettos, the contrast created by juxtaposing several pieces of varying styles, textures, and colors will balance out any look and make it work. To see the magic in action, let’s check out a few stunning street style examples:
On the right, sporty sneakers, basic leggings, and a white tee juxtapose a sequined jacket, creating a super casual look with just the right amount of feminine luminescence.
In the middle, a mens-wear inspired plaid shirt transforms a golden skirt from decadent to funky. A military-inspired boot, coat, or blazer would do the same.
On the left, the stark contrast of white on black forms a visual distraction that softens the glow of a shimmering top. Never be afraid to play with color!
Finally, keep in mind that juxtaposition can also be used to liven up an outfit. Just add a dash of glitter to a simple ensemble like jeans and a tee and you’ll instantly go from bland to glam.
