Spring 2012- Trend Alert: Color-Blocking

Share

If you haven’t felt bold enough to wear color-blocking yet, this Spring will be your chance to let your geometric flare shine. Vibrant color combinations such as bright aqua and purple will dominate in the upcoming season in clothing, accessories and shoes. Not a big fan of those colors? Have no fear… this Spring will allow you to really let loose on your own personal palettes. Sea foam green, fuchsia, orange, red and canary yellow are also among the hottest colors for Spring.

Want to be really bold like Sarah Jessica Parker, Emma Stone and Zoe Saldana? Pick two colors that express your personality the most… wear one color in a solid bottom and one color in a solid top.

 

The red carpet style for color-blocking, recently worn by Liv Tyler and Kate Winslet, creates an optical illusion of weight loss. The vertical blocks of black on either side create dramatically smaller waistlines and help you appear 10 pounds lighter… and who doesn’t want to look 10 pounds lighter? It wouldn’t be a bad idea to wear this amazing magic trick after the holidays!
