10 Ways to Wear Bright Colors #6

6. Wear 2 Brights at a Time.


The no-fuss approach to wearing brights? Wear two at a time. Mix yellow with bright blue. Or cobalt with pink. It "grounds" the look and you can get away with two neon brights (which can look harsh by themselves) this way.

Although I would've chosen much brighter selections, this is the best that I could put together.  This is a more casual version of the rule. Bright orange and pink combined didn't clash being a combination of just the two of them. But having just neon orange or just neon pink alone could possibly become "eye sores" if worn wrong. Quite a tricky style, if you ask me. Again, with the balancing theory, two brights tone each other down. More than two brights at the same time need very careful analysis.

  3. I love that dress! I wonder what kind of inner could be used to replace a bra though.

    1. You don't need to replace the bra. Just make sure you wear one in a skin tone closest to yours. Go strapless for "best results" :)
