*STYLE TIP* The Blink Test

Your face should always be the focal point of your outfit. If you're unsure if it is, try this little trick...

Before going out the door in the morning, stand in front of a full-length mirror and close your eyes. Then, open them quickly and see where your eyes are drawn to first. It should be your beautiful face. If it's not, it may be for one of the following reasons:

1. You may be wearing an unflattering colour. If you're not wearing one of your colours, it won't harmonise with your natural colouring and will create a jarring effect. The eye will draw straight to the colour. 

2. There may be a focal point on your outfit that draws attention to one of your challenge areas. If there is a detail on your outfit, like ruffles, buttons, a bright colour or pattern that sits right over a challenge area, it will draw attention to that area and away from your beautiful face. 

If you find your eye being drawn to anywhere but your face when doing 'the blink test', do what you can to remove that distraction. If that isn't possible, just add an eye-catching necklace or scarf! This will draw the attention back up towards your face.
