please define matchy-matchy

sage · Dooney & Bourke

To me matchy-matchyness occurs when your bag, belt and shoes match. And they all
match your earrings. I guess the idea is to wear complimentary colors. Look at the thread style section. None of them are matchy-matchy. They are inspirational, yes, matchy-matchy, no.

hummm... maybe some visual examples?

Main Image and matching bag

or, twin sets sometimes look too m-m

or, bag matching shoes, or even just getting an entire "look" from one line (for example, an entire Gap look, or Banana, etc.)

Of course, there are sometimes when m-m look really cute and 'works', so... I'm not sure I've even been helpful at all...

Hermes

matchy matchy IMO is wearing a red sweater, jeans and matching red boots, and red jewelry...

It's kinda funny cuz recently I had a phobia of being MM and I went to the opposite side of the extreme. When I'd come home and get a good look at my outfit, I'm like, "Ew."

I am totally the same way, whenever I get my Lucky each month, I try to copy the more eccentric, unexpected, and totally cute style. But what I end up with is fashion victim!
