Go Crazy with Color Blocking

Pin It I have one big rule in fashion, never match your handbag to your outfit. Color Blocking is a great way to step away from the traditional and add some color to your life. I always like to select accessories that will make me stand out instead of blend in. Get out your yellows, cobalt's, turquoises, hot pinks, purples, oranges and lets get creative!


I love yellow with either turquoise blue, cobalt blue, or be bold like above and mix both!

I absolutely love color blocking my shorts. There are so many colors that work wonderful together. The orange and pink is classy. You can go bold with bright colors or keep it more subdued with pastels.






You will be surprised at how many colors go amazing with each other, don't be afraid to add several different colors!

And here are two looks I created. I absolutely love using yellow for color blocking, it goes great with so many colors including turquoise, cobalt blue, purple, and red. Cobalt Blue and Green is also another color blocking combination I love. Don't forget your accessories, choose colorful bracelets, earrings, handbags, and shoes. Don't feel everything has to match, throw in a random color, believe me it will work. There really is no rule to color blocking, I've seen every color mix and matched, just keep it to the same hue, don't mix a neon with a pastel and you're good to go!

Get Terrific in Turquoise this Summer!

Pin It Turquoise is always a perfect summer color that especially looks great on your newly tanned skin. It's makes a great statement dress or makes the perfect choice for your accessories to add a pop of color. I love the care free beachy feel it gives.

The easiest way to pull turquoise is with a great pop of color from your accessories. Go for a Bold necklace either chunky like the one on Megan Fox, or a Bold Large medallion. I also love dangly turquoise earrings paired with a chunky matching bracelet.

Color Blocking with Turquoise

Turquoise is great for experimenting with color blocking because it matches everything. Just look at these looks and try experimenting on your own by matching turquoise with another bold color like yellow, orange, or hot pink.




All Turquoise 

Really want to stand out? Then just go all out with a bright turquoise dress that really makes a statement. I absolutely love an amazing turquoise maxi dress or go trendy in a jump suit. I especially love this color paired with black or gold accessories and always keep the shoes neutral.

Turquoise Shorts

A super easy way to add a touch of turquoise is with a great pair of colorful turquoise shorts. A pair of shorts is much easier to pull off than turquoise pants which only tend to be flattering if your tiny winy. Shorts however look great on all shapes and sizes and you can really add a great funky short to make your outfit stand out from the rest!






Turquoise Handbags

My motto is if you're going to spend hundreds to thousands on a handbag you should make it count. Why get the typical white, brown, black, when you can really make your handbag stand out with a fantastic color...like Turquoise!!
