Say Hello To Neon Hues!

2 May

Since the 1980’s, the fashion world has watched the neon trend go in and out of style, depending on the season. Fortunately for you bold-color lovers out there, the trend is back in full force for this spring and summer season. This style is great because there are so many fun and unique ways to encompass it, and every fashionista can enjoy it. Here are a couple of tips.

Start Color-Blocking

This term has left the lips of many fashion experts, but what is it exactly? It’s simply wearing solid blocks of color—preferably neon. Color-blocking your wardrobe will make you look fresh, yet stylish. For instance, you can rock a neon pink blazer with a white blouse and black pants. If you’re feeling especially daring, you can have fun with layering neon on neon. Try sporting a bright pair of purple jeans with a neon yellow belt or wear a punchy green tank with a bright orange cardigan. You will turn heads and be lauded for your style. Fashion experts recommend wearing no more than three different colors. However, if you’re a loud-color-wearing newbie, start small and then work you’re way up to looking like a color-blocking pro.

Brightly-colored shoes like these from Yoki Shoes is a great first step to take into the neon color trend.

Wear Neon Accessories 

In addition to wearing shoes that make a statement, accessories can enhance your look. Flaunt a wonderfully bright-colored handbag, especially since they are so popular this season. The most noted hues include bright red, purple, cobalt blue, tangerine, lime green and bubblegum pink. Lastly, you can experiment with fun, neon-colored nail polish or adorn your wrist with a vibrant bracelet.

Are you ready to push those drab, past-season pieces to the back of your closet and break out the color?
