10 Ways to Wear Bright Colors #5

5. Mix Brights with More Brights
Why not mix all your brights together like Jean Paul Gaultier did on the runway? Cobalt, grass great, yellow and a spot of coral all play off each other beautifully.

Skirt - Topshop
Belt - Rules by Mary Belt
Shoulderbag - Only
Heels - Manolo Blahnik


Having created a more "wearable" look for most women, brights on brights did create a stand-out look despite the simplicity.  Again, balancing the extremes, I used bright colors for plain and simple designs/styles. This is how runway looks become more wearable.

As for the shoes, I chose a neutral looking color to tone down the overall brights a little bit. Considering the bronze color of Jaqueline, an old rose shade did not over power the rest of the outfit but at the same time, was not "left behind" because of its laid back style combined with the heels!

I would most probably wear this on a bright and sunny lunch date with girlfriends :)
