Fall is in the air and now it’s time to figure out what to wear in October- November 2011. Hot designers help us all get inspired to wear something bold, and express our style every time we get dressed. This fall, many designers have decided to go with daring bright bold colors, such as bright blue, lipstick red, emerald green, tangerine orange—my personal favorite, and fuchsia. Pairing these bright color together in an outfit can be tricky. The best way to pull this off is to pair a cool color (ex: blues, purples, greens, pinks) with a warm color (oranges, reds, yellows). For example, combing a sky blue top with a lipstick red skirt. Then adding a neutral colored accessory, such as a white or beige, helping to pull the outfit nicely together. Neutral colors—brown, grey, black, beige, nude— are great to use when balancing out the bold colors in your outfits. This fall, try to be daring and challenge yourself to be creative, and wear something unique and colorful on the streets. It is all about standing out with your own style and being noticed.
