Color Blocking is one of the easiest and most versatile trends right now. One can either color block with bright bold contrasting colors or monochromatic colors like I did here. Just remember to make sure the colors are solid, it is the key to color blocking! Color Blocking is an easy trend to accomplish in your everyday looks. Pair a bright color skinny jean with a simple top and flats to pull off an effortless color blocking look. You can expand you color blocking look with accessories, handbags or jewelry. Do not be afraid to go for those bolder pieces to really add definition to your outfit. I went bold with this teal blazer and paring it with an orange wide leg trouser was a match made in heaven. I kept the tank simple. One of the easiest ways to bring some color into your life/outfit and push some boundaries is adding a color handbag or garment to your wardrobe. When wearing a simple outfit, adding a colorful handbag or blazer will give it the punch of color it needed. Shoes are a great way to color block as well. You can color block with patterns or just solid colors. Just another great excuse to go shoe shopping. Keeping in the same hue is also a great way to color block. Keep the palette similar in color. I took oxblood jeans and paired them with a rose pink embellished top and kept my accessories nude. This created such a great look. Get creative this season with color!!

Cinch up with belts this season. Belts are definitely an under-appreciated accessory in my opinion. They can add sparkle to a classic, accentuate curves, polish an outfit and create the ultimate silhouette. And, like most things, it is worth investing in some classic pieces and playing around with maybe those less expensive options for trends that come and go. A wide belt on your waste will instantly create curves and highlight your waist. Thinner belts that sit lower on the waste will elongate you by drawing the eye downward. The more embellished the belt or the more powerful the statement, the simpler your other accessories need to be. Conclusion: The right belt can be a crucial thing to looking your best.
