Hey curvy girls all over the world,
I am crazy obsessed with the trends from this spring season because it involves oodles of color. From colorblocking to neon brights color is everywhere and I am taking full advantage. Reds, yellows, pinks, and blues, oh my! I’m in color heaven. A lot women are afraid of wearing bright colors for fear of looking bigger or for fear of just looking too bright. Let me say this, color is your friend. You don’t have to be doused head to toe in bright color but you can incorporate it with your neutrals or darks and still be on trend and feel comfortable. I think we need to look at color in a different way. Use color as a punctuation to your outfits. Whether it be with a pair of shoes or a piece of jewelry.
I personally don’t have a problem with bright colors or mixing and matching colors. Rich bright reds and blues go well with my complexion and actually brighten up my face. As a dark skin woman I embrace it now more than ever.
Today, I felt a color wave flow through me and decided to get my colorblocking on. I picked out a red blazer and teamed it up with my cobalt blue skinny jeans and a white tank for a strong yet simplistic look. I chose a pair of floral print platform pumps to add a bit of interest and topped the look off with gold layered triangle earrings, a gold cuff, and my Michael Kors oversized watch.
As you can see, I switched my hair up again. I went for an exaggerated ponytail with a bang for the early spring season. I love wearing ponytails because it frees up my time getting dressed in the morning and it hold up well when the weather gets windy and humid.
Are you into the bright color trend this season?

Love the colour blocking – you look great! As you said, it goes beautifully with your colouring but it tends to draw my pale skin out! I have to combine one bright-ish colour with a few more muted colours! Loveee your blue jeans though! Great post 🙂
