How to Color Block....

I just had the pleasure of doing a Spring trends presentation for Bloomingdale's and color blocking was a big part of it. Pink and red, purple and yellow, blue and green....what used to be considered taboo color combos are suddenly now the chicest options around! Obviously Spring time means bright and bold colors, but you can achieve this look with a more muted palette. Here are two fab DVF dresses; one for the more adventurous and the other a bit more reserved....


If paring two bold colors is not for you, think about mixing different shades of the same color. Play around with pinks, reds, yellows and purples...


If all else fails, look for pieces with the color blocking already done for you. I love these Suzi Chin dresses- so easy!
