Summer Brights

April 29th, 2010

When thinking of bright bold colours many people tend to shriek at the thought of tacky acid brights circa 1980 and can’t possibly think there is a stylish way to enjoy this SS/10 trend. But thanks to designers such as YSL, Ferragamo and Proenza Schouler showcasing stylish brights in their collections it’s not looking cool to be seen in Sunny yellow, fuchsia pink and electric blue.

Don’t be afraid to mix your colours with an outfit like the stripy dress below, just one thing to remember is that if your opting for a bright colourful outfit like that, keep your accessories to a minimal.

For an evening a simple block colour dress gives you more class if you’re looking to be on trend but also smart, bright yellow is a great colour and easy to accessories, many other bright block colours go well with it and if you want a toned down look team with either a black jacket and shoes or a shrug.
