A founder, father and model figure rallied the Colorado State University community over Zoom Wednesday night. Philanthropist, speaker, athlete and model Wesley Hamilton addressed the CSU community Feb. 17 as the keynote speaker for CSU’s celebration of Black History Month. As one of the many events put on by CSU’s Black/African American Cultural Center, Hamilton went through his story to explain where he came from and how he got to be who he is now: a loving single father, creator of the Disabled But Not Really Organization, motivator, bodybuilder and positive role model to all. Hamilton began his speech with a quote from Martin Luther King, Jr., saying, “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” The specific quote was chosen to give the audience an idea of who he is, Hamilton said. It is the adversity that he faced in his life that led him to become who he is today. Hamilton also chose the quote specifically in honor of Black History Month, he said. “We have to celebrate Black excellence, our legends that are in the community that really stood up and fought for the same things that we are fighting for today,” Hamilton said. “I am a Black disabled man, 33 years of age, living in Kansas City, Missouri,” Hamilton said. “I have not always been disabled physically.” In 2012, Hamilton was shot twice, leaving him paralyzed from the waist down. Having lived a life that was filled with bad choices and feeling like he had no identity, he had to choose between feeling depressed and unfulfilled or finding the strength and positivity within, Hamilton said. see HAMILTON on page 3 >>

ASCSU addresses RamRide, elections committee By Ceci Taylor @cecelia_twt

Hamilton chose the latter. He lost over 100 pounds, filled his life with daily affirmations, started his career and began to embrace the independence and self-love he had given himself. “Getting shot two times in the abdomen was the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Hamilton said. He started his passion project, Disabled But Not Really, with the mission to bring positivity and hope to the disabled community and beyond, Hamilton said. When asked about advice to help yourself be more successful, Hamilton told attendees to choose to view life with a more positive perspective and say daily affirmations because it will change the way you feel about yourself.

“His stories of courage, strength and perserverance resonates with participants after any talk he has ever delivered.” INEZ WASHINGTON PEER MENTOR FOR B/AACC

Eventually, he had the opportunity to be featured on the TV series “Queer Eye,” where he came face to face with the man that shot him years before. Because he had learned to know and love himself, he empathized with the man who took away his legs and forgave him. “His stories of courage, strength and perseverance resonates with participants after any talk he has ever delivered,” said Inez Washington, a peer mentor for B/AACC. “Wes (Hamilton) instills essential tools of positivity, selfawareness, empowerment, resilience and acquaintance in the fact of many challenges. He believes his higher human act is to inspire, and that is exactly what he is profoundly affecting human hearts of all ages, race, lifestyles, backgrounds and worldwide.” Molly O’Shea can be reached at news@collegian.com.

Wednesday night’s senate meeting of the Associated Students of Colorado State University included first readings of multiple bills regarding funding for campus initiatives, the ratification of the ASCSU elections committee and lengthy discussion and debate regarding the Lyft/RamRide pilot partnership bill. Ratification of Elections Committee Ten CSU students ran for positions in the ASCSU elections committee. Claudia Murillo, a candidate for the committee, said she would want to focus on fairness and equality during the ASCSU elections. “I’m definitely for hearing people out in all situations, trying to get all the facts of the case and balancing them out and talking to others,” Murillo said. Cavan McCabe, another candidate, said she wanted to focus on honesty throughout the election. “When it comes to the ASCSU election, I’m going to assume that everyone’s being honest and if they aren’t, then that’s why we’re here so we can make sure that this is a fair and completely equal election,” McCabe said. With a vote of 32-0-5, all 10 candidates were ratified into the committee. Voter engagement campaign bill Internal Affairs Committee Vice Chair Ariadne Athey presented a bill that will increase voter en-

gagement for ASCSU elections. “(The bill) will make sure that we can get as many votes as we can for this election season and hopefully all of the following ones,” Athey said. “We got less than 14% of the student population to vote in this last election, it was a little less than 5,000 votes, but it’s not OK because it’s not representative of our student population.” Athey said they will be creating a board to oversee the upcoming elections. The board will consist of five senate members and three election committee members. The board will work on outreach with diversity offices on campus as well. Athey said it would cost around $3,000, which will go toward posters, table covers, signs and various other promotion methods. Rams Against Hunger’s proposal for permanent home Budgetary Affairs Committee Chair Gemma Buhaenko presented a bill that will allocate $61,200 from the ASCSU senate’s general discretionary fund to provide a permanent food pantry on campus. The bill highlighted that Rams Against Hunger has no permanent location for the fall 2021 semester. If passed, the bill will fund a place for Rams Against Hunger to reside permanently. “The 2019 American College Health Association’s National College Health Assessment, a multi-institutional survey in which CSU participated, found

that food insecurity is significantly higher for marginalized populations,” the bill reads. The statistics found that food insecurity impacts one in 10 Coloradans and one in 10 Larimer County residents, the bill says. Buhaenko said the project will cost $402,316, but the bill is only asking for $61,200. Buhaenko also said the renovation will be in the General Services Building, located next to The Oval. Buhaenko said the $61,200 will cover the construction of two offices, one break room and a locker room. It will also cover electrical costs for the new facility. Funding For Lyft/RamRide pilot program The Lyft/RamRide Pilot Program will take $10,000 from the ASCSU discretionary funds to provide no more than 125 students with a $200 credit for free Lyft

rides. Senator Kyle Hill said the bill will help students with transportation issues. “We are elected to serve the students and only the students,” Hill said. “So giving this (money) will be a positive thing for our student body.” Hill said a recent poll showed that 80% of students are in support of this funding. Hill said if the bill does not pass, 75 students will receive funding because money has already been allocated from the ASCSU executive branch. Hill said the senate must decide if 125 students will get funding. With a vote of 2-24-1 the bill was not passed by the senate. Read the full version of this article at collegian.com.

New parking app comes with more features, less cost By Nicole Taylor @nicoletaylor_32

Anyone parking on the Colorado State University campus now has more flexibility in the ways they pay. Colorado State University Parking & Transportation Services implemented a switch from the former app used for parking on campus, WayToPark, to ParkMobile. ParkMobile is a popular app with over 20 million users. The app has a 4.7 star rating on the Apple Store and is available in over 350 cities. The app has around 800,000 users in the state of Colorado and is commonly used around Denver, according to a Jan. 26 ParkMobile press release. “Colorado State University is excited to welcome our

students and faculty back from winter break and offer a new mobile option to pay for parking around campus,” said David Bradford, director of CSU Parking & Transportation Services. Associate Director for CSU Parking & Transportation Services Devan Durand said CSU went live with the ParkMobile app Jan. 18. “We are super excited about our new partnership and the added conveniences they bring to our customers,” Durand said. “Starting July 1 customers will no longer have WayToPark as an hourly mobile app option when paying to park on CSU campuses.” Durand said CSU decided to switch contracts because ParkMobile has a smaller transaction fee than WayToPark — down from 35 cents to 20 cents — as well as a “find my vehicle feature” and a time adjustment

feature. ParkMobile allows users to reserve a spot ahead of time and extend parking time on the app, according to the release. The app labels each spot with a number within a zone and tells users if they are allowed to park at each location. It also notifies users of how long they are allowed to park in one spot for, and the app keeps track of how much time they have left. ParkMobile eliminates the use of any parking meter. It makes it easier for app users to add time from their phone without having to return to their car. The contactless payment on the app reduces the surface users touch when parking their car. This can help slow the spread of bacteria and viruses. The ParkMobile demo video explains how to use the app. “When you park at a

ParkMobile location, find the zone number for your spot,” the video says. “It will be located on the stickers and signs that you will see around the parking meters. Next, select the amount of time you’d like to park in that spot, confirm your information and touch the ‘start parking’ button.” Jeff Perkins, ParkMobile chief marketing and product officer, wrote in an email to The Collegian about the company’s excitement to launch at CSU. “We’re very excited to launch at CSU,” Perkins wrote. “We already have a lot of users in the state who can now use the ParkMobile app when they visit the CSU campus. We’re also available in 450+ cities around the country. So, anywhere you go, you can use the app to quickly and easily pay for parking.” Nicole Taylor can be reached at news@collegian.com.

SPECIES LONGEVITY IN COLORADO >> from page 1 By Noelle Mason @noellemaso

In November 2020, Colorado voters opted to reintroduce gray wolves to the Southern Rocky Mountain region. This area is prime real estate for the gray wolf, but they are not the only animals to move back into the neighborhood. Several reintroduction efforts by Larimer County biologists have been successful in this ecosystem. “There’s no point of reintroducing a species if you don’t have the appropriate habitat,” said Boyd Wright, native aquatic species biologist for Colorado’s northeast region with Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Larimer County is just that — an appropriate habitat for a variety of species that call the Front Range home. Below are just three examples of species reintroduction success stories that have occurred right here in Larimer County.

“One of the reasons we do this is for people (is so that they are able) to appreciate these different species and this greater biodiversity that’s part of this great landscape that we all like and choose to live in, living here in Colorado.” BOYD WRIGHT NATIVE AQUATIC SPECIES BIOLOGIST FOR COLORADO’S NORTHEAST REGION WITH COLORADO PARKS AND WILDLIFE

Boreal toads With a unique Rocky Mountain reintroduction profile, the boreal toad is Colorado’s only alpine toad, calling lakes and marshes above 8,000 feet in elevation home. Though these amphibians are small, they are affected by a worldwide conservation concern. “The big issue with boreal toads is that they’re declining because of the chytrid fungus, which is a global issue for amphibians,” Wright said. The chytrid fungus, or Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis, Bd for short, affects tadpoles’ mouthparts and adult amphibians’ skin. This fungus has caused the decline of roughly 6.5% of all known amphibian species by disrupting important physiological processes that occur through their skin.

“Once a breeding site goes Bd positive, we’d more often than not lose breeding entirely at that site the following year because all of the adults have died,” Wright said. “Within a year they’re gone.” Boreal toad reintroduction efforts are part of a continuous back and forth as Bd continues to be a threatening presence not only in Colorado’s alpine marshes but worldwide, according to CPW. “It’s almost like an arms race,” Wright said, detailing CPW and the Boreal Toad Conservation Team’s efforts to counteract the disease-related losses by reintroducing healthy toads to Bd-untouched breeding sites. Meanwhile, research efforts aim to understand the mechanisms that result in Bd resistance and more sustainable ways to keep boreal toads on the landscape in the face of Bd, according to CPW. Since the toads were first reintroduced to Zimmerman Lake in 2006, CPW biologists noted that the population of boreal toads in this lake were effectively breeding and sustaining their numbers. Though Bd is a formidable enemy, the resilient boreal toad remains in the Rocky Mountains. Black-footed ferrets Nearly seven years ago, the black-footed ferret was reintroduced to Soapstone Prairie Natural Area in Wellington, Colorado, an animal thought to be extinct until 1981. Disease and landscape destruction on the American prairies likely caused their numbers to dwindle to the point of suspected extinction. Black-footed ferrets have been reintroduced to over 20 sites across the American west, including several locations in Colorado. Larimer County is home to the National Black-Footed Ferret Conservation Center, where captive-bred ferrets practice and prove their ability to survive in the wild before being released into their natural habitat. Over 1,000 ferrets have been reintroduced to the wild, but they are still one of the most endangered mammals in North America. The black-footed ferret is the subject of extensive research, especially in respect to disease management and assisted reproduction. These efforts center on minimizing further extinction risk as well as increasing genetic diversity to promote population longevity far into the future. American bison In the fall of 2015, 10 American bison were reintroduced to Soapstone Prairie Natural Area and Red Mountain Open Space, beginning the Laramie Foothills Bison Conservation Herd. “They’re fascinating animals in a lot of ways,” said Jennifer Barfield, assistant professor at Colorado State University.

“If you think about the history of the species and what it’s been through, … to now see them back out on the landscape is really remarkable. It’s a feat of collaborative conservation in a lot of ways that we aspire to for other species.” Cutting-edge reproductive technology was employed to allow the “valuable” genetics of a Yellowstone herd to make their move to Larimer County. “The goal of those technologies was to circumvent the disease brucellosis,” Barfield said. “That is a problem for Bison in the greater Yellowstone area.” Brucellosis is a bacterial disease that induces abortions in adult bison and other ungulate species like cattle and elk. It is transmitted by reproductive fluids and other infected tissues and can pass through a population as a result of curious bison investigating an aborted calf. While the effect on Bison is minimal aside from reproductive setbacks, it is possible to pass to cattle herds and can be devastating to ranchers. “We took technologies that were developed in livestock to prevent disease transmission through embryo technologies to assist in our ability to be able to establish the herd,” Barfield said. The establishment of the herd has been incredibly successful. This collaborative effort between CSU, Larimer County and other government land management entities has resulted in the growth of the herd, numbering over 100 today.

Get outside Education is a key part of endangered species conservation and reintroduction. “Seeing (the animals) on the landscape provides context for their value, and it allows people to appreciate them out there in this landscape where it just seems like they should be,” Barfield said. “At Soapstone we have the grassland, we can see the mountains, you get the sense of this is what it could’ve been like back in the day.” Soapstone Prairie Natural Area opens for the season on March 1. This area is a prime location to view the bison herd

or even try and spot the elusive black-footed ferret. Ferret lovers can visit the black-footed ferrets at the Fort Collins Museum of Discovery. Northern Coloradans can keep an ear out for boreal toads on forested or wetland hikes. “One of the reasons we do this is for people (is so they can) appreciate these different species and this greater biodiversity that’s part of this great landscape that we all like and choose to live in, living here in Colorado,” Wright said.

March Madness: Can CSU make it?

By Bailey Bassett @baileybassett_ After a crazy 2019-2020 NCAA men’s basketball season, the championship tournament was canceled for the first time since it was founded in 1939 due to COVID-19 concerns. March Madness is a sports staple and, thankfully, it is expected to go forward as planned this year. The Colorado State University faithful has even more to look forward to as the CSU men’s basketball team looks to make the big dance for the first time since the 2012-2013 season. The Mountain West Conference is stronger at the top than it has perhaps ever been, and the league is having its best season since the conference’s heyday in the early 2010s. The conference is looking to be a four-bid league, which would be unusually high for the Mountain West. The Rams are a top-notch 3-point shooting team and can beat just about anyone if they are hot from there. They move the ball well and run in transition. Although they aren’t the biggest team, they’ve found their own defensive identity through peskiness and a grit and grind mentality. Projected as one of “the last four in” in the latest ESPN bracketology, this would put CSU as a 12 seed competing in the play-in game where they would take on Stanford University. Bringing an impressive average of 19.2 points and 6.9 rebounds per game to the table is Stanford senior Oscar da Silva, someone to definitely look out for should this matchup materialize. CSU is currently 14-4 overall with an 11-3 conference record. They are a top 50 team according to the NCAA net rankings and have

some big wins on their resume. They split their series against Boise State University, who was a fringe top 25 team at the time. The Rams also have series splits against the other two Mountain West powerhouses — Utah State University and San Diego State University. CSU has few blemishes on their resume for receiving an at-large bid. An early-season loss to Saint Mary’s College of California is one thing going against them. It was an ugly loss that saw CSU’s offense run stagnant and it doesn’t help the Rams’ tournament chances that SDSU would go on to beat Saint Mary’s in blowout fashion. Luckily, CSU has dominated the lower tier teams in the conference that they are expected to beat. The main argument against CSU getting a bid to March Madness is that they do not have any high-profile non-conference wins. SDSU has wins against the University of California, Los Angeles and Arizona State University. These are significant wins, as both these teams were ranked early on in the season. Still, the Aztecs only sit fourth in the Mountain West Conference standings. Boise State, after an opening loss to the University of Houston, won 13 in a row before suffering their next loss against none other than Colorado State. The Broncos’ resume includes a win over Brigham Young University, a team that SDSU actually lost to. Utah State is also searching for a bid to March Madness. The Aggies haven’t been overly impressive in non-conference play but have taken care of business in the Mountain West, hence their top ranking. ESPN bracketology has Utah

State as a 12 seed, SDSU as a nine seed and Boise State as an 11 seed. CSU’s late-season schedule has taken an unfortunate turn, and it is yet to be determined if it will help or hurt their chances on Selection Sunday. The series against the University of New Mexico and the University of Nevada, Reno were technically postponed due to COVID-19 precautions, but as the season nears its end, it remains unclear if these contests will get rescheduled. As it stands, all that is left on the Ram’s schedule is a series against the United States Air Force Academy. If these are the only two games left for CSU’s regular season, a sweep against Air Force would give the Rams a decently clean resume. Although it would be a solid conference resume, it is definitely one that could lack the depth required to make the tournament. That’s why the possibility of the postponed games getting rescheduled or CSU adding a non-conference opponent or two is imperative to the Rams making a better case as to why they should get a bid. Adding non-conference matchups is a risky gamble as wins could secure tournament selection, but one loss could bounce them out of tournament contention. All of this speculation could be put to bed should CSU win the Mountain West championship tournament, which would give the Rams an immediate bid to March Madness. The March Madness tournament will be held from March 18-April 5 and will be held in its entirety in Indiana to limit exposure and travel. Bailey Bassett can be reached at sports@collegian.com.

By Luke Bourland @lukemcduff

When thumbing through an old yearbook or magazine, one thing immediately jumps out at me — the cars of the

time. Most commonly used to describe old cars, “they just don’t make them like they used to” is a phrase we’ve all heard before. When it’s uttered, it spurs most people’s imaginations to sea foam green ‘57 Chevrolets, drivein theaters and giant boats on wheels. Personally, when I hear this phrase, I think of the lack of crumple zones, no airbags, front hood ornaments that would work better as skewers than a vehicle badge and Ralph Nader’s “Unsafe at Any Speed.” In 1908, Henry Ford revolutionized the world with the introduction of the Model T, and Colorado State University had already been around for

almost 40 years at this point. Needless to say, our beautiful campus has seen the conception, introduction and development of the beautiful automobile. With the development of cars came the augmentation of campus, leading to more parking (some would say not enough), parking tickets and even electric vehicle charging stations. CSU has seen, in its 151-year lifetime, the mass production of the Model T to the introduction of Tesla — a lot of development, but nothing really changes too much. Cars are here to stay even if they don’t make them like they used to. Luke Bourland can be reached at photo@collegian.com.

PHOTOS BY LUKE BOURLAND Ranging from 1972 all the way to 1983, Colorado State University saw an influx of different types of vehicles. In this gallery are the Volkswagen Beetles from Germany, Toyota Land Cruisers from Japan and cars from the now-defunct American Motor Company. It also shows parking spaces outside Eddy Hall, where there is now a bike path, and in front of the Administration Building on The Oval.

Local exhibit ‘About Face’ explores ambiguity of portraiture By Ivy Secrest @IvySecrest

We are obsessed with our own image. Today, this means selfies and social media, but the interest in our own likeness is far from new. We have had an obsession with the human body since the beginning, with many cultures believing that we are modeled after gods. Painting the human image appears to be a universal interest that has dominated the art scene for centuries. And while not every piece is a “Mona Lisa,” new talents are constantly appearing. A local exhibit, “About Face: Contemporary Portraiture from the Collection of Wayne F.J. Yakes, M.D.,” on display at the Museum of Art Fort Collins shows just how unique interpretations of the human body can be. From deeply detailed portraits to abstract depictions of the whole body, Yakes’ collection showcases an array of talent and emotion through 11 contemporary artists. Includ-

DAILY HOROSCOPE By: Jorge Espinoza TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (02/18/21) ARIES (March 21-April 19) Let go of relationships that no longer serve you. Whether they’re romantic, platonic or professional, if they’re keeping you from reaching your goals, you don’t need them. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Go with the flow; you won’t be getting to your destination any faster. There is no need to rush. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) You’ve had enough time to process your emotions and think about the situation. When moving forward, adjust to the direction that will lead you toward joy. CANCER (June 21-July 22) The self-transformation you seek

ing work from Yigal Ozeri, Kim Dorland, Jenny Morgan and others, this exhibit is a mustsee before it leaves Fort Collins on March 28.

“(Yigal) Ozeri manages to create an intimate interaction with his subjects without betraying their image.” Upon entering the exhibit, you may be motivated to walk past what appears to be a wall of photographed female portraits. Take a second look and you’ll find that they are in fact oil on canvas and watercolor hyperrealist portraits. Yigal Ozeri, a 63-year-old Israeli artist, is among the best hyperrealist painters living today. His portraits of young women are meant to explore sensual femininity and fantasy. His skill is remarkable — each loose hair and every little

won’t start until you choose to leave the old you behind. You’re ready for a change. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Listen to your intuition and let go of previous trust issues you may have had. Your intuition never lies. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Quit giving your time to people who are committed to misunderstanding you. If they really cared, you wouldn’t have to fight so hard to get them to listen to you. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Make the most of the cards you’ve been dealt. You may not have received the best hand; however, you have everything you need to make it work. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) You always persevere even when you’re at your lowest. The glow-up you’ve been waiting for is on the way.

patch of peach fuzz is accounted for. His subjects are full of life and warmth, each with unique personality. At the center of his work is “Untitled: Jessica in the Park.” This portrait centers on a young red-headed woman with deep blue eyes, wearing a pink blouse. Her expression is soft, and her gaze wanders off the canvas, making it seem as though she’s looking at someone or something. Ozeri manages to create an intimate interaction with his subjects without betraying their image. The women in his paintings are based on photos he takes himself, which he then edits and prints to use as a reference for his oil paintings. His use of hyperrealism allows the viewer the chance to see the subject as they actually are without taking away from the emotion of the piece. An excellent example of this is “Untitled: Lizzie Smoking.” Unlike the classic brooding depiction of the female smoker, Lizzie is laughing in her portrait, her hair is static and her body is relaxed. She

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21) Every day is an opportunity to try something new. Sooner or later you’ll figure out what you love and what you’d rather leave behind. In the meantime, have fun trying everything out. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Find the balance between self-reliance and co-dependency. You’ve dealt with plenty on your own, and you’ve done a great job learning how to ask for help. You need to be able to do both to be successful. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Rely on your community when you need support. Community care is just as important as self-care. PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) Promises don’t always work out the way they’re supposed to. No matter how disappointing it may feel, be hopeful that the future has something better in store for you.

looks like she’s enjoying a genuine moment of bliss, like happiness has perched on her porch and is here to stay. On the opposite end of the spectrum is Kim Dorland, a contemporary Canadian artist. Dorland’s pieces are clearly not photographs; however, the deep contrast between colors and the strong use of form creates powerful images. “Ghost of a Drunk (self-portrait)” depicts a white figure of a man outlined in a fluorescent pink and surrounded by a dark blue woodland landscape. Even though the painting uses such bright colors, the contrast conveys a sense of alienation and loneliness. The rest of Dorland’s pieces showcase this quite well. “Negative” is a portrait of a woman in the bathroom in black and yellow. The overwhelming black and uneasy shade of yellow certainly don’t make the figure appear happy — more like she’s lost something. Other artists use a combination of the approaches artists like Dorland and Ozeri take.

Jenny Morgan, an artist living in Brooklyn, combines realist skills with distortion. She paints people close to her and obscures parts of the body to capture their “elusive essence.” Morgan’s piece “Shadow Play” shows a skillfully rendered face of a woman with pink hair and big, bright brown eyes. A blue hand pulls at her face and some of her features are obscured by a whitish haze that covers the piece. This fits well with the theme of uncovering essence, as the girl seems to only be partially there. All the artists interpret portraiture in such thoughtful and unique ways that there’s simply no way to not enjoy this exhibit. These artists all created portraits that will move you and change your perspective of the human image, and you shouldn’t miss the opportunity to experience it. Details about admission and the museum’s COVID-19 safety precautions can be found on their website. Ivy Secrest can be reached at entertainment@collegian.com.

LAYERING WITH JEWELRY

USING ACCESSORIES TO CREATE MORE COMPLEX OUTFITS S T Y L E O V E R V I E W When it comes to accessories, jewelry can be one of the easiest and most versatile pieces to style. Jewelry can accentuate parts of your body your clothing can’t, compliment your skin, and add an extra layer to your outfit. Us it correctly and anything from a simple necklace to a large pair of earrings can take your outfit to the neck level

JORGE ESPINOZA When choosing jewelry think about the color, texture, and type of jewelry you’re wearing. These will all factor into your outfit. When done right you’ll have a variety of mixed and matched textures to work with. When done wrong your outfit will feel unbalanced. COLOR: When choosing the color of the jewelry you want to wear, start with figuring out you skin’s undertone. There are plenty of online tests and tutorials to help you figure out your undertone. Generally, if you find that you look better in gold jewelry, you most likely have a warm or neutral undertone. If silver looks better on you, than your undertone is most likely cool or neutral. Knowing if you look better in gold or silver will help you choose jewelry that compliments your skin. WHAT COLORS ARE YOU WEARING? Once you figure out which colors look best on your skin, think about the overall color palette of your outfit. Generally, if you’re wearing warmer colors you would want to match them with gold. Similarly, silver jewelry matches well with cool tones. It’s useful to think about the colors you’re wearing but it doesn’t have to be the deciding factor. If you think gold will go well with your cool-toned outfit, go for it. Sometimes breaking the rules can yield better results. NECKLACES: The elite layering item. If you’re wearing a tank top, a necklace will bring attention to your chest and neck. Pair it with a regular t-shirt for a similar effect. When it’s cold outside wear it on top of your hoodie or sweater. Use a necklace to create an extra layer between a button-up shirt and undershirt. Pair it with another necklace for even more texture. There are endless ways to mix and match necklaces. EARRINGS: Earrings are much more important than you may think. They frame your face and serve as the bridge between the top half of your outfit and your face. Bigger earrings tell a story and can be a direct reflection of your overall outfit. Studs bring subtle attention to your face and are the perfect option for people who aren’t into large earrings. Earrings come in limitless shapes, sizes, and textures which is why they can make or break your outfit. Tie in your favorite pair of earrings with your favorite shirt and you’ll see the difference.
