When you think of neon fashion your first thought is probably the 80s! However, many of the fall runway shows prove that neon can be so much more. Many fabulous designers are taking a more modern, edgy, and sophisticated approach when it comes to bright colors. They're taking a huge trend and updating it to make it more relevant for the modern day girl. The best way to wear hot pink, orange, blue, yellow, and green is to tone it down with black. I love that this look can even be work appropriate.

ohmygod that coat! That Thakoon coat is fantastic! (I could never wear it though... the color on my skin would make me look like I've been barfing for 6 hours straight.)
ReplyDeleteAll beautiful! That Michael Kors Yellow coat is to die for!
ReplyDeleteGot to agree. It's nice to see color coming back.

ReplyDeleteI just adore the pink and the orange. SO vibrant and fresh. LOve it all!
ReplyDeleteThe first dress and blue coat have me drooling!
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of MK's fall 2009 collection. The simple, sophisticated styles are a great foil to the neon colors.
ReplyDeleteSanity Fair- That first dress is unbelievably gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteAPT- I'm lovin' all the bright colors for fall.
ReplyDeleteticklish- I think that J.Crew coat is amazing. You don't see that color often in coats.
