Summer Brights

Hi you all!

It’s been a while. Unfortunately, I could not access blogger in China due to possibly censorship (?) and slow Internet connection. Will post pictures from the trip soon!

Anyway, I’m glad to be back and anticipate posting more in the next few weeks. Hope you all had a great July :)

Some have negative views about hot pink – the color is too loud, too trashy, too juvenile Barbie-esque. But these chic outfits are sure to change their view. These bright ensembles are the personification of elegance and style while standing out in a crowd.

I find yellow and gold so hard to put together. This was done wonderfully.

Another wonderfully put together outfit.

Such a fan of brights mixed with tribal.

Mixing bright colors with gold and tribal seem so challenging to me. I know I opt for the easier alternative of pairing my brights with white. Here are some wonderful examples of brights mixed with white!

Gorgeous skirt.

Kate Spade ad, I believe.

Paired with white, these bright colors are perfect summer, but paired with each other, they form a bold statement.

These colors work together so beautifully.

As school starts, keep mixing in these summer brights to transition into fall.

This year’s J. Crew Fall Lookbook, even featured these daring colors.
