COLOUR ME LOUD

Blame it on Katy Perry’s knockout neons in her head-turning US Elle cover, or Gucci’s statement making separates shimmying down their S/S 11’ runways- neon colour blocking is about to explode on fashion radars as the temperature gets frisky.



Like all good trends, it hasn’t taken long for celebs to go to town on colour blocking. Everyone from Camille Belle, Cheryl Cole, and Rihanna has been spotted in day-glow inspired apparel. While these ladies don the look head to toe, neon accessories let you dip your toe in the colour-blocked trend without looking like Rainbow Brite.




Just in, our gorjana leather wraps are so cool they’re collecting frost. These tempting hues offer the perfect neon accents to instantly update your spring wardrobe. The sugar sweet pops of colour tone in with your monochrome separates, or for expert stylists, coordinate with matching shades from your primary school colour wheel. Think: pink wrap with a yellow separate? Top of the class!





Experimenting with pops of colour is a playful way to make a huge impact. Serious aficionados should team opposing hues like plum accessories with racy red apparel, and sea blue leather with lush purple. For a safer bet, neon makes black new again, just ask Olivia Palermo who incorporates neon colour blocking into her staple uniform of black.




Whether you decide to arm yourself with one or two leather neons to give a nod to the trend, or, like your outfit loud to match your arm candy, you’ll be ahead of the fashion curve come Sunday.
