Now that the semester has concluded, daydreams about the relaxing summer days can now become a reality. No matter where your summer plans take you, a stylish wardrobe is definitely essential. A routine of black leggings and a sweatshirt, which may have been our outfit of choice for the last lingering weeks of the semester, will no longer be suitable for the sunny days ahead.

Want to learn how to play with color?  If you are looking for a way to transition into summer style, then you are in luck. Bright, bold colors are on-trend for summer and are easy to incorporate into your outfits. This Fashionista has perfected the color game and knows the “rules” of mixing colors. She wears a bright, neon yellow dress, which makes an effortless statement. In order to balance out the bold color, she paired it with a dark washed denim jacket.  For accessories, this Fashionista added a burnt orange statement necklace, a gold watch and bangle. By choosing warm toned colors, the look is cohesive and has a natural summer vibe. Lastly, she carries a simple brown tote and opts for a pair of beige wedges.

When you are shopping for summer trends this season, be sure to add a few bold, colorful items to your bag. You will make an effortless statement, and with the addition of a neutral color, the look will be balanced. The key to ensuring that neon is not overpowering is to neutralize with accessories. When it comes to playing with color, it won’t hurt to take a risk.
