Summerblocking 101 !

 

As you can probably tell by now, I have always been a fan of mixing things together, especially color blocking, I always colorblocked as a kid on my weekend outtings with my parents. Color blocking is one of the easiest ways to experiment, especially with color. Color blocking can be easily done with what you already have. You can either spice up an outfit it accessories or you can make an outfit with something you already have.

All you need for colorblocking is two or even three colors. You can choose to block it up with accessories, like I did or with main pieces. There aren’t any rules to what you can do, the colors can be close to one another to create kind of a color palette or they can be opposites (on the color wheel). An example of close colors (color wheel wise) : Pink + Orange an example of opposite colors : Yellow + Blue. And since is pratically summer, its the perfect time for brights and neons.

Usually I think a head when it comes to outfits for certain occasions but for some reason I thought I had a lot more time for one of my close friend’s graduation. I managed my time poorly and had to find what to wear quick and local. I found this dress at Urban Outfitters and absolutely loved the feel and look but it would of course look to plain to wear a regular striped dress until from the corner of my eye I spotted a bright neon clutch on my way to the line and as quick as I saw the clutch I thought of my favorite blue sandals from Zara on the last hour. Small side note, this dress is a Midi, so if you’re taller than 5ft, then it won’t fall so close to your ankles 🙂

Color block the summer away ladies !!!
