But im unsure of color matching and layering with my skin complexion can anyone help please???? much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Wear baggy collared shirts in red or brown, make sure they hang a good 3 inches over your belt when tucked in.

Do a bit of a search for articles, or posts on here on how clothing should fit - if you are skinny having clothes that fit is really important, clothes that are too big or baggy will make you look even skinnier. Do the same for clothing colours and complexion - although take what you find with a pinch of salt. Some colours look like ass no matter what articles say, and some colours like a pale blue look good on anyone. Squared toed shoes are fairly ugly and I am not clear on what you expect them to do for you, the horizontal stripes make you broader/vertical stripes make you taller thing is a myth, can't be bothered to look for the papers but both an Italian and British scientist published stuff along this line. Boot cut jeans will not flatter you as they will make the bottom of your legs look bigger so the rest of you look smaller, stick to straight cut. Don't worry about what you should be wearing to uni bars, probably more or less what you would wear anywhere else. If you are really worried instead of buying new clothes before you go, wait till you have been there a couple of weeks and have worked out what other people are wearing before you go shopping.

For shirts wear purple (lilac), greens and pinks, all these colors will work well for you. I have a similar complexion and work very well for me. Any yes please make sure they fit, avoid baggy clothes.
