The beautiful South African model Candice Swanepoel modeled bright and contrasting colors for the December issue of ELLE UK. The models platinum locks and sky blue eyes made the shoot look delicate and angelic. Her outfits starkly contrast with her simple beauty but she makes it work. Her stylist dressed her in a shimmering blue leopard print blazer over a nude striped shirt and sneakers. Somehow the Victoria's Secret Angel makes it all come together.
Dressing mix and matched is somewhat taboo because you're always at risk for looking disorganized. This editorial breaks down that assumption by showing how well red can work with blue and how you can make stripes work with spots.
The beautiful model exhibits confidence and looks strikingly beautiful in the December issue of ELLE UK, even with her mix and matched outfits.
