Joiee Thorpe<\/a> is a Brooklyn-based celebrity and editorial fashion stylist. Here she shares her expert tips and shows how you can rock spring’s bright color blocking fashion trend.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Bright<\/a> color blocking was all over the Spring 2019<\/a> runways and it\u2019s shaping up to be one of the season\u2019s biggest trends–but finding the correct way to combine contrasting colors can be a bit intimidating. Ideally, this look is achieved by putting together interesting and complimentary colors. Color blocking your look doesn\u2019t have to be complicated, though: You can be bold or stay on the safer side, depending on your comfort level and your personal style. Ahead, check out 5 easy-to-follow tips for nailing the trend. Consider this your color-blocking fashion crash course.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Pair Neon + Pastel With A Neutral Color<\/h4>\n\"color\n

This is a great combination if you\u2019re daring and love to try new trends, since neon brights are making a big comeback for spring. Pairing neon yellow with pastel pink is very artsy, so adding a neutral trench to the mix makes this look more accessible.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop This Look:\u00a0<\/strong>Anwen Tan Oversized Trench Coat<\/a>,\u00a0Good Luck Charm Mauve Short Sleeve Button-Up Top<\/a>,\u00a0Lorelai Lime Green Bodycon Skirt<\/a>,\u00a0Goodies Blush Snake Embossed Belt Bag<\/a>,\u00a0(model’s own shoes)<\/p>\n

Try a Monochromatic Mix<\/h4>\n\"color\n

Monochromatic color blocking with similar hues can make for stunning outfits. This is an especially great way to take on the trend if putting colors together is a challenge for you. \u00a0Add an oversize bag with snake boots to nail the trend without going over the top.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop This Look:\u00a0<\/strong>Everson Rust Orange Long Sleeve Wrap Top<\/a>,\u00a0Make A Scene Orange Pleated Satin Maxi Wrap Skirt<\/a>,\u00a0Essex Tan Snake Mid-Calf Booties<\/a>, Wildly Chic Mustard Yellow Crocodile Embossed Tote<\/a>, Oaklee Golden Yellow Beaded Tassel Hoop Earrings<\/a><\/p>\n

When in Doubt, Keep It Chic<\/h4>\n\"yellow\n

Color blocking can go bold but there\u2019s nothing wrong with playing it safe. Style a bright yellow suite with a dark green top and chic it up with a pair of white mules. Remember chic and refined is always a fashion win.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop This Look:\u00a0<\/strong>Newfoundland Mustard Yellow Three-Quarter Sleeve Blazer<\/a>, Stay in Bed Forest Green Satin Robe<\/a>,\u00a0First Rate Find Mustard Yellow Trouser Pants<\/a>,\u00a0Dolce Vita Camala Off White Leather Pointed Toe Mules<\/a>, (model’s own sunglasses)<\/p>\n

Pile On The Brights<\/h4>\n\"\n

Don\u2019t be afraid to experiment with different bold color combos. Pairing high-contrast colors can be daring and make a major statement. Make sure to put <\/span>complementary colors<\/span><\/a> (hues that are opposite each other on the color wheel) together and don\u2019t go overboard with accessorizing: in this situation, less is more.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop This Look: <\/strong>Good Luck Charm Green Short Sleeve Button-Up Top<\/a>,\u00a0Paulina Coral Red Bodycon Midi Dress,<\/a> (model’s own shoes)<\/p>\n

Accessorize It Up<\/h4>\n\"color\n

Let your accessories do the work! \u00a0Adding three different color accessories to a solid dress can uncomplicate things when it comes to mastering the color blocking trend. This subtle approach to the trend adds an element of surprise to your look. Mixing in a bold patterned bag also helps!<\/span><\/p>\n

Shop The Look:\u00a0<\/strong>Omna Mustard Yellow Statement Sleeve Midi Dress<\/a>,\u00a0Dusty Blue Beaded Statement Earrings<\/a>,\u00a0Eye See You Beige Beaded Woven Clutch,<\/a> (model’s own shoes and belt<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Nailing the bright color blocking trend is easier than you think. There are a number of ways you can rock this look but above all else, always remember to have fun, think outside the box, and own it!<\/span><\/p>\n
