SPRING TREND #2: BRIGHT COLORS
Believe it or not, those neon colors from the 80’s and early 90's are back, whether you want them to be or not! This trend is also known as "candy colors". Think colors you see in skittles and starburst. To make it look chic and not like you're stuck in the 80's again, be sure to wear one punch of color (such as skirts, shoes, jackets, or handbags) and wear it with neutrals. Wearing more than one of these bright hues together could be potentially painful to the eye. The second image with the bright yellow skirt below is also an example of the super lemon color Lindsay discussed in her color story. Notice that it’s paired with a neutral shirt, and paired the look with the oversized jewelry trend. Stacked bangles!
If you think pairing a bright/neon with a neutral such as black, beige, or ivory is too dull for you, pair a color like bright lemon with pale lavender, soft rose, dark plum, or slate gray.
