The New Girl On The Block: Color Blocking

How to wear spring’s colour blocking trend.

The weather may be drab, but your Spring wardrobe doesn’t have to be. Not with the new trend on the block: colour blocking. A favourite amongst stylish celebs such as SJP, Rita Ora and Rihanna, colour blocking is the perfect way to bring a burst of colour to your look. Here at YCB, we love these two dresses by Limited Collection at Marks and Spencer; dress them up with a statement necklace or down with flats to achieve the perfect punch.

 

Perhaps the ultimate office-friendly trend, colour blocking lends itself well to a smart-casual look. This white and red panel adds an edge to the classic shirt, and can be pared down with fitted trews. Or, for a look which will take you from desk to dance floor, opt for this zesty blazer. Choose between a wide range of fab neon pieces at glamorous.com.
