Happy Friday, Lovelies! Today I’m hooked on colorblocking. We saw it make a splash in the fall, and its mod appeal is transcending seasons to spring. So here are some of my picks from the latest collections, always under $100. Enjoy!
Diego Dress, $58.00 from Need Supply Co.
I’m all about simplicity. This dress has a color combo that will work with just about any skin tone, and it’s a great base for accessories. Wear it in warm weather and feel the breeze, or use it like a tunic over pants or leggings to wear it right now.
Side by Seaside Dress, $74.99 from ModCloth
Looking for a way to try colorblocking without looking like a roll of Lifesavers? Try a muted color palette and a familiar shape to make the trend your own.
Veronica Panelled Tunic Dress, $68.04 from Asos
Talk about simple. This shift dress is so easy to wear, and it instantly looks like you really tried. It’s easy-to-wear pieces like this that I try to stock my closet with to feel cute without looking fussy.
Dress – Color Block with Sash, $88.00 from Bloomingdale’s
This dress is so occasion-flexible. You could wear this to brunch or a friend’s wedding. It’s all about the styling, but this shape is classy and elegant.
Shadowcast Dress, $48.00 from Need Supply Co.
Following a trend doesn’t have to mean compromising your personal style. Taking a fresh look at colorblocking for spring can help you know how to incorporate those items you’re going to see in stores into your wardrobe in a way that makes you feel effortlessly polished. Have a safe and happy Friday, Lovelies, and a fabulous weekend.
Which of these could you see yourself in?

I could see myself in the last one. I’d probably wear it like that with a long necklace and grey leggings too.

Probably not, I’m not a fan of these looks. I guess I am not into colorblocked looks.

Ew tattoos.

So I know very few women that can make the “HEY, MY DRESS LOOKS LIKE A BAG” thing work. Most women look best in dressed that have definition in the important places (waist, bust, etc.) like #2. The other kinds just aren’t flattering at all on most people. I don’t even like them on the models…

these are fun hanging out dresses cuz they look easy to move around….but not for parties.

i agree with @purple_cuts those dresses are blah .. but the shoes on picture # 3 are so hawt!!!!!

Apparently color blocking apparently can’t be done without a dress that looks like an upgraded burlap sack.
@ChelseaSmilesMore@xanga - that is exactly what I was thinking.

2nd and 5th ones are the only ones that I even remotely like… the rest… ugh.
