Color Blocking

I've always loved bright colors, but some times can feel out of place in them while everyone else is dressed in camel. Fortunately for me, the spring runways were flooded by electric colors with Orange, Pink, Yellow, and Blue dominating the trend.

The trend can be extremely bold by combining contrasting colors or you can chose a more subtle option by pairing pieces in the same shade (try Pink and Orange or Blue and teal).

If you're fearing this extreme combination try pairing a bright piece with a staple color like navy or neutral or by accessorizing with a bright purse, belt or heals.
