    Default I love matching hair toys to clothes and jewelry!

    I seem to get a thrill when my hair toys match up really great to my clothes and jewelry (and even shoes)! It really makes me happy. I don't feel like I HAVE to match everything, or try too hard, but I can't deny the satisfaction and put together feeling of having a perfect match.

    Anyone else feel the same, want to share pictures and comment?

    Here is a really nice jewelry set I love. My GTS red heart fork matches perfectly.



    Anyone else have an awesome match to share?

    I definitely appreciate it on others, but all my hair toys are neutral and go with everything without "matching" per se. I'll never be one of those people with a Ficcare in every color to match my shirt. I love that fork with your jewelry/shirt color though, and the whole effect is very flattering on you!

    I'm not heartbroken if things don't match or coordinate, but I like coordinating my earrings and hairtoys when I can. I love the red on you WD, with the lipstick too! That's dedication.

    Thanks! And those are three beautiful sets, Peppermint tea! I usually don't shop for my hair toys to match my clothes, usually it's the other way around. Or sometimes it's an accident.

    Recently, a coworker I really liked was about to move out of state. At our last staffing, I was not able to stop staring at her earrings, and I complimented her on them. I mentioned how I was going to find some like that because they perfectly matched my flexi-8. She took them off and just gave them to me to remember her by! I did not expect her to do that, she was so sweet.

    I was just thinking about this the other day. Wondering how many buy toys to match colors in wardrobe or what complements hair color. So far I'm buying neutrals that look good in my hair. Of course it would be different if I could afford way more hair toys.

    Going for terminal, but also enjoying wearing my hair down and curly.

    Thank you! I love when things I buy separately end up matching. (With the exception of the windchimes, they were bought together.)

    That was so kind of her, what a lovely memento.

    I find lots of things match on accident after I have them, and it's like "OOOoh!" I frequent thrift shops where I can find a blouse or shirt for three dollars or so, and I sometimes shop with attention to a particular shade or color that really speaks to me, and may end up coordinating a whole outfit. Mostly as of late my clothes are basic pieces that allow my jewelry and hair toys to stand out.

    I have been doing this with jewelry for a while, and now I've graduated to factoring in hair toys to the mix.

    This sounds pretty vain and superficial, but it makes me feel good about how I can present myself appearance wise if I choose to. There are honestly many many times when I just don't care, and other things like comfort matter more.

    Other times it's funny things like events I match to, like wearing a Nightblooming leaf curl hairstick to my son's junior naturalist meeting. Or wearing my PM arrow to go see the Hunger Games movie with my son.

    I'm silly, but it's fun to me.
