Color Blocking with Neutrals

Color Blocking, Bright Green Dress, Moschino platform wedges, Balenciaga clutch, Neon Fashion

Sweetees Green Skirt/Dress, Balenciaga style clutch c/o Socialite, Vintage Hot Pink Blazer, Silvana Danies Turquoise Horn Necklace, Moschino platform wedges

It's funny to see how trends recycle and come back in new ways. When I think color blocking and neon, I'm reminded of my roller skating rink days in the eighties. I'm always happy to embrace and play with brights! How do you like the way I mixed this bright green skirt, now turned dress, with my hot pink blazer? All while keeping the clutch and shoes neutral....

Absolutely Mrs. K said...: that is what i call a color blocking, color blocking can be so dull! it is so much more than trowing some colors together, you have to do it right! love this color combination because it is so sweet, the colors are like cute candy colors. love the movement you have created! perfect with the nude heels, the shape is so bold, so thank god they are nude. it is all about shape and movement, and that is why this is a unique color blocking look; June 23, 2011 at 1:06 PM
The Fancy Teacup said...: You look like a delecatable summer treat in those colors! And the wedges are true artwork.
