How to be Loud on Loud Shirt Day!

Three things we love at Ruby Slippers…playing dress up, doing a good deed and being loud! So when we heard about Loud Shirt day, we were sold!

Friday 18th October, is Loud Shirt day…get the memo out to your fundraising crew, this is a great one for the school, office or just an excuse to wear that awesome shirt you’ve been a little frightened of! The Shepherd Center organise this annual event to raise much needed funds for Deaf Children, so it’s a wonderful cause to support.

This year’s event is perfectly timed with this season’s trend of ‘prints’. Along with stores holding the usual florals, spots and stripes… prints are covering, well, pretty much everything! Fruit, cars, animals… you name it! The print is officially in and a welcomed addition to everybody’s wardrobe.

If you haven’t yet purchased this seasons latest addition, then let Loud Shirt Day kick off a new look in your wardrobe. Follow our simple tips below, nail the look, and most importantly raise some money for charity!

–          Don’t lose sight of the importance of the main colour of the shirt, just because you’re wearing a print doesn’t mean the predominant colour shouldn’t complement your skin tone and hair colour.

Girls:

–          If you’re on the petite side, keep the print small so it’s doesn’t over power you.

–          Don’t be afraid to accessorise, just because you’re wearing print doesn’t mean a necklace can’t work with it too.

–          Team them up with neutral colours.

Guys:

–          This is the perfect in-between shirt. Dressed down from your work shirt, dressed up from a casual tee.

–           Wear with neutral shorts, slacks or jeans.

–          For a more summery look, get a short sleeved version and roll up the sleeves once.

 

We can’t wait to see how you look people, so take a pic and share it! #loudshirtday
