This fall, Fashionistas everywhere are singing the blues, but not in a bad way. Designers like Proenza Shouler and Versace are mixing in an unexpected bunch of bright colors and bold prints with neutrals. Humble knits from the past are being reinvented with bold brights and embellished necklines, giving way for Fashionistas to wake up their wardrobes like never before. From bold shades of cobalt to the powder blue seen on today’s Fashionista, it’s no secret that the color is one that transitions from season to season. It’s no wonder layered denim in every pattern, cut and style made such a comeback this summer. Unlike the typicality of plain denim though, fusions of color and unique prints are destined to be seen on every city sidewalk this fall.
Today’s Fashionista opts for a beachy look (weather permitting) by applying touches of bold colors to complement her white jeans. This Tory Burch satchel adds a punch of preppy while the sleeveless pink top adds an element of casual-cool.
To make best use of the colorful tones in your wardrobe, wear the bold blues head-to-toe. In addition, incorporate textures such as velvet, lacquered lace, sheers and thick knitwear. This sweater by Stella McCartney is a perfect combination of both parts romantic floral and bold color. To play the trend safe, pair your bright hue with a sleek leather skirt or pant, which can take you from a day in the office to a night on the town.
If you haven’t had the chance yet, be sure to check out Erdem’s Resort 2013. Its blissful blues and combination of refreshing patterns in feminine silhouettes are simply amazing.
