Colour blocking is set to once again be a huge trend for this season. Whether you want to fully embrace it or just give a subtle nod to the style, we’ve got all the tips you need. Whatever the occasion this summer – here’s how you can make colour blocking work for you.

Keep your future bright this summer

Whether looking for occasion dresses or the perfect style for those summer days (and nights), it’s time to keep your future bright!

Check colour combinations

The first step is to make sure you pick colours that complement each other. Think about pink and purple, red and cobalt blue, or even orange and blue – perfect for making a real fashion statement. If you brave enough in the fashion stakes to colour block from head to toe; remember the brighter the better!

Block without the clashing

If clashing big bright colours together seems just that little bit too daunting for you, start with a long dress in one bright colour. We’re thinking along the lines of a bright pink or yellow dress – you know you’ll be turning heads for all the right reasons.

Then it’s time to accessorise…

Accessories

Colour blocking can be as simple and subtle or as loud and proud as you make it. It’s really up to you! To keep things a little subtle try adding a few accessorise to one bright coloured piece of clothing. If you don’t quite think you’re ready to make things too bright start by wearing a long black dress and build on it with some eye-catching accessorises – the perfect way to start colour blocking.

Wear it with pride and confidence

To really colour block to your full potential make sure your outfit both contrasts and coordinates. That means making all your flashes of colour noticeable.

We think if you’re going to do it, go brave and bold as it always looks best when worn with confidence. There are no hard and fast rules when it comes to colour blocking. It’s all about finding a style that works for you – but by wearing vivid shades with confidence, you know you can make the look really work for you.
