I believe you're asking about the "Distressed Look' when Antiquing furniture. What I suggest is that you take a dry rag and dip it in Vaseline or Petroleum Jelly and rub on various areas after painting the furniture. This will take off a bit of the top layer of paint,therefore creating the Distressed Antique Look. You can also "dry brush" the top layer, using just a tiny bit of paint for a slightly different effect.

Wear black or darker jeans. This makes most outfits look less awkward, especially white.

Since you have dark hair, lots of colors would work. Try different ones and see what colors you like best.
