Spring/Summer 2011 Fashion Trend: Colorblocking
Last summer it was all about muted beige tones for Spring and Summer, but this year the brighter the better! And the most on-trend way to wear your brights is together (Above: Prabal Gurung; Missoni; Marni; Jill Sander). For the most part when mixing brights you want to try to keep them in the same color family, but sometimes even mixing colors that are not in the same color family works too (i.e., Prabal Gurung above). It looks like this is going to be one of the more popular trends this Spring and Summer, so if you want to try it out, below are some options to consider: Aqua tube color block dress for $68 on www.bloomingdales.com; DKNYC colorblock tee for $89 on www.nordstrom.com; BDG Bateau sweater for $49 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; Sparkle & Fade colorblock babydoll dress for $59 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; Sparkle & Fade colorblock top for $54 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; Oasis colorblock dress for $107.58 on www.asos.com; Sparkle & Fade colorblock strapless dress for $59 on www.urbanoutfitters.com; Red Haute colorblock dolman sleeve top for $68 on www.nordstrom.com; BDG Breton dress for $49 on www.urbanoufitters.com; Kensie soft crepe two-toned top for $68 on www.piperlime.com; Irina Shabayeya for INC coloblocked bandage mini skirt for $89 on www.macys.com; Colorblock dress for $17.80 on www.forever21.com.
