Colored Pants

I enjoy the fashions of the fall and winter seasons but the colors are so boring. Brighten up your look with colored pants!! Below is an example of how I incorporated a summer/spring color into a fall/winter look.


       Sweater: H&M
             Pants: H&M
           Shoes: Posh

 
I'm not a fan of pairing items that match each other perfectly (like my shoes and sweater do) so to break up this "matchy matchy business" I threw on a pair of grass green skinny jeans. To brighten up your outfit when wearing  dark colors like blacks, browns and navy blues I suggest  wearing pants that are really bold shades (NO NEONS) of peach, red or green.

Color blocking



Color blocking is the technique of combining a few bold colors to create one look. Like everything in fashion, it is a trend that comes and goes. For the past two years, fashion giants such a Gucci , Marc Jacobs, Tommy Hilfiger and many more, have added color blocking to their runway collections and I LOVE IT!! Below are a few picture of me color blocking.
