You don’t. It’s an age-old theory that has run its course and it’s time for all of us to move on. It’s 2018 and if you want to mix-and-match your accessories, then by all means, go ahead.
Granted, matching your shoes and bags always works out just fine, but why go the ordinary way when you can actually stand out with statement pairings? And that’s where street style connoisseurs come in; it’s not a coincidence that we’ve spotted them strolling down the streets in statement colors, from head to toe. And it sure is not a coincidence that the trend has kind of grown on us.
That said, there isn’t one particular way to (mis)match your shoes to your bags; you just have to develop this flair for all-things unusual and you’ll be mixing-and-matching like a true street-style maven in no time. Below, we’ve scoured some of the best street style shots that will get you inspired. To the Photo Gallery!
