Sydnee, 16 asks…

Q: “I like to be a little rock but I also love to wear girly things like dresses, skirts, boots ect. I also love to be tomboy. I like to be different and stand out from other people, but no bright colors or flowers. I’m 5’3, caucasian average weight and medium/long red hair and freckles with blue eyes. My budget is between $50-$150. Can you help me come up with outfit ideas to match my style?”

A: Dear Sydnee,

That’s quite the style you have there! I’d love to help. Below are three outfits I’ve put together for you.

This look will definitely embrace your rocker side with the funky rings and rock ‘n’ roll tee, but it’s girly with the hi-low skirt and heels. Fun Fact: Black is one of the most flattering colors on a redhead.

What I love about this outfit for you, is that while the dress is flirty, it’s also simple. Paired with a bowler hat and toms, you get the same tomboy feel that you would from shorts and a t-shirt. Fun Fact: Purples with blue undertones like the shade of this dress, are your best bet for adding a color punch. Red-toned purples won’t be as flattering for a redhead, neither will yellows or oranges, so stay away from those colors.

Here, I’ve added the boots you say you love to wear, and paired them with lace shorts (girly) a loose button down top (tomboy) and a spiked necklace (rock). Together, you’re look will be one of a kind! Fun Fact: Mossy and olive greens were made for redheads! In fact, most shades of green are. Although, stay away from yellow greens.

Sydnee, I hope these outfits gave you some inspiration to switch up your everyday look! Which look is your favorite?
