COLOR BLOCKING (IN FASHION)


Color blocking is such a big fashion hype now that its SUMMER! The sun is up, the trips are rolling and the vibrancy of colors are on the loose!

Coined as "Color blocking" simply because the idea is to combine blocks of colors together to create the looks you please, I just adore how the confident mixture of bold hues make outfits look so bright and happy to both wear and stare at. Now for someone who prefers wearing neutral colors over rainbow hues, that comment counts for something!

From the high fashion runways in Europe to the busy street style's elsewhere, the rampant use of color blocking as a fashion theme has been very obvious.
