Color-Block Party


 One of the most eye-catching trends at fall fashion week this year, which emits confidence and demands attention, is color blocking. Color blocking involves wearing two or more blocks of bold color in one outfit. This season we are seeing color blocking of all kinds -- tops, pants, dresses, shoes, jewelry and handbags are all bursting with blocks of color!

A color-blocked clutch can be the perfect way to 
spice up an all black or neutral ensemble.

The key to rocking the colorblocking trend is making sure you don't over do it. When it comes to color blocking, less is definitely more, so be sure not to leave the house looking like a box of crayons. Select a few key colors that compliment each other to create a cohesive color combo that works! If you plan to create your own color block look from clothes you already own, make sure that you select pieces that are simple and clean cut, to prevent the clothing design from taking attention away from your fabulous color palate. 




The most popular color blocking hues this fall are rust orange and magenta pink. This bright color scheme gives you an energetic and fresh edge that is sure to make you stand out during the dark drab winter months.

Don't forget to keep your hair, accessories and makeup simple, since this trend is already a lot for the eyes to take in.
