Anyone who's ever been in a long-term relationship knows that twinning with your significant other is inevitable; you start to repeat the same turns of phrase or you pick up similar gestures. But if celebrity couples are any indicator, dressing like each other is the most obvious example (Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake's particularly memorable matching outfits from the 2001 American Music Awards come to mind). While we don't condone pairing off in head-to-toe denim, there is a way to coordinate, and to coordinate well. Ahead, we dissected recent pictures of our favorite present-day "It" pairs (yes, we’re looking at you Brad and Angelina, and you too, George and Amal) for tips on how to match your special someone like a celebrity.
Play with Contrast
No one does twinning quite as well as David and Victoria Beckham, who have sported all kinds of looks, like head-to-toe leather in the past But the twosome have learned from experience that when wanting to project one matching ensemble, it's easiest to do this with contrasting neutrals, like black and white, for a sleek effect.
Color Coordinate
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are known for their fashion prowess, so we aren't suprised that the way they match is through tonal color play, here in shades of gray and blue.
Stick with Classic American Staples
Classic American staples look good on everyone. Case in point: newly married Justin Theroux and Jennifer Aniston are simply chic in similiar leather jackets, black tees, jeans, and aviators.
Mix Prints With Aplomb
For the average individual, mixing prints is hard. Even harder? Mixing patterns with your spouse, but Amber Heard and Johnny Depp managed to pull off the impossible by sticking to the same colors—in this case, creams and browns.
