Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I have read conflicting articles about this...some say never try to match your eyeshadow with your clothes and others say go for it, but I think it can make you look more put together..like the other day I wore a green striped shirt with green shadow (for St. Patricks Day! ) and it looked good. But I also think that some people take it too far and have too much of one color. Just wondering what your opinions are on this??

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I do it all the time! As long as you don't overdo it, I think it's fine. (i.e. no blue shirt and Mimi eyes lol)

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I am always wondering the same since I don't actually know what colors compliment each other

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

One of my favorite color combination for clothes is brown and beige. So I sometimes do my eye makeup in the same combination - beige eyshadow and brown eyeliner - and I love it!

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I like to wear colors that compliment the way I look. Sometimes I will wear to match my outfit.

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I think it's good to match, but sometimes it can be really boring

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I usually wear really colorful clothes,so I have to be careful with my makeup so that Idon't end up overdoing it.

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

sometimes I'll kinda match but always ... i make sure none of my mu clashes with my clothes.
do you usually stick with the same shade of blush or do you change it according to your outfit and the rest of your mu

Re: Matching eye makeup to your clothes

I do it occasionally. If it's subtle i think it looks nice and well put together but, if you over-do it, it can come off a bit cheesey IMO
