1. Wear more color, more often~ This is a Monkee's mantra, but needs to be stressed as the calender turns another page. We are all about color at Monkee's, whic really translates to more fun for you. Wearing color is proven to boost your mood, and it's so much more eye-catching than basic black. And please~ leave the black at home for weddings, unless it's after five. 

2.  Care for your Items~ you know those shoes you never wear because they’re too beat-up, or your favorite sweater covered in lint balls? It’s finally time to do something about them. You spend hard-earned money on these items, so shouldn’t you start taking care of them?  Avoid washing your clothing too frequently, especially your denim.  

3.  Accessorize, Accessorize, Accessorize~ We think of accessories as the seasoning of an outfit. Do an accessory check before you leave the house to ensure your outfit is anything but bland.  Ask us  for suggestions on ways to elevate a simple top with a necklace.   Don’t match your earring color to your outfit too much.  Think complementary colors!

4.  Spend some time studying magazines, blogs, fashion videos.  This may sound like work, but it’s actually fun. You love fashion, so why not learn a little more about it? It will only add depth to your understanding of clothing and the fashion industry, and educate you on the hazards of cheap, disposable fashion.
