Mixing Bright Colours With Neutral Colours

Hi beautiful fashionistas! Do you love mixing bright colours like I do? Today I will talk to you about how I recently wore bright colours with light colours.  It's not hard to implement both bright and earthy tones in one outfit but it's a bit tricky to go for two bright colours with one neutral colour. Here is my new outfit off the day where I mixed  two bright colours red and teal with beige skirt. I love bright teal with basic colours like black and white but I also love this colour with beige and bright shades.  If you are not sure to wear two bright shades together keep the colours farther away from each other like I did here in the pictures.

Want to know details about my outfit? The tunic is from street market, the pencil skirt is from Urban Planet, the bag is from Macy's, the necklace is from Suzy Shier, Canada and the shoe is from Spark Gear, Bangladesh.

Check out my pictures and let me know what brighter shades you would pair together with one neutral shade.

A tunic is sometimes confused as short dresses, but I would rather call it a long top. If you own a bright printed  tunic, wear it with your favourite pencil skirt for office.

Geometric print is fun and a bright one like this teal one stands out with colourblock red and beige bag.

Accessories should never be boring if your outfit is conservative. Go for daring colours and colour blocks.

Slim fitted, stretchable skirt is what you should look for if you want to stay comfortable all throughout the day and go for small details like golden buckles on your skirt!

Add a bit of sparkle with bracelets around your wrist.

Mary Jane inspired pump shoe makes any formal outfit looks super feminine and cute.

Let me know what you think about this outfit and whether you liked it.

Trend Alert: Big Floral Prints

Hey Fashionholics!!!

I love big florals buts it's hard to go for this particular print if someone is cornet shape like me. So I went  for darker base top which has  bright florals. So, my outfit of the day includes big bright florals print top, nicely fitted pant, aztec bracelet, cocktail ring and my statement mustard shoe.

Continue reading to know more about this big floral trend.

1. Incorporate your basic structured pieces with your floral: Big floral looks great and brightens your work outfit and so go for structured pieces like fitted pant or blazer with your floral.




2. Mustard + grey + violet: A new colour combination to wear this spring is mustard, grey and violet. Go for mustard on the top and violet on the bottom if you are pear shaped or goblet shaped. If you are an hourglass or cornet choose a violet dress to accentuate your curves and finish the look with grey accessories and mustard shoe.




3. Hide your flaws with dark bigger florals: If you love big floral prints but shy away to try this trend go for darker florals to hide your flaws. For instance wear dark big florals at the bottom if you have pear shape and balance the look with crop top and bomber jacket.



4. Go for printed accessories with your floral attire: go for different and interesting printed accessories with your floral printed dress. I went for aztec print bracelet in orange and sky blue and finished off my look with big cocktail ring.

Trends come and go but big florals are here to stay this spring. Let me know in the comments below how you would wear this trend this spring.
