Color is in for Spring and in a BRIGHT way -- neon bright!  We are seeing bright colors pop up from most designers for Spring 2012 in clothes, handbags, shoes and accessories. As you can see below Chloe, DKNY, Blumarine and Dres Van Noten have incorporated fun, bright colors into their collections. You can mix them all together for a really current and Springy look or just add pops of color to your black uniform if you need to ease into it. 

If you want to jump on the trend full force but are a little uncomfortable about it, consider a bright colored piece with a neutral color pattern like the Balenciaga dress below. 

If you are really brave, go for the bright colors in monochrome and make a serious statement!

Throw on a pair of brightly colored jeans and take on the trend in a major way. Not only is color in but colored jeans in all sorts of fun hues will be huge for Spring. Tone the color down with a simple white t-shirt and silver sandals (yet another trend -- we are getting out of control here!) which are great because they match with everything.  

And just in case you can't find the perfect silver/gunmetal shoes to wear with your brightly colored jeans, below are two pairs you can buy now from milk & honey, one casual mini wedge for day and one stunning heel for night.  OR design your own shoes as always!

But we digress... back to bright colors.  You can create your own shoes using one bright color like the yellow ones shown at the top, color block with differet bright colors, or even just add a brightly colored element such as piping to a neutral shoe. 

However you choose to wear your bright colors this Spring, don't forget to design your own shoes to match!
