Choose only one or two theme colors

Stay with solids, no bold patterns, stripes, plaids or prints.

Ladies: avoid sleeveless tops.  A bare upper arm and shoulder area, in most cases does not compliment the features of the face.

When dressing formal, dark solids are best.

The Rule of White: (or any color that is much lighter than everyone else's) If one person is wearing white or light everyone must do the same.  Imagine standing ten feet away from a portrait that has every one in medium or dark colors and one or two have on white or a very light color.  The light colors stick out and your eye is drawn to that spot.

If a family member wears glasses, ask your optometrist to loan a pair of blank frames without the lens or you may choose to remove your own.  There is a charge to remove glass glare.
