Winter blues definitely have me longing for warm spring days – I’ll try to make do with bright colors for now. Just seeing these colors and thinking about the possibilities gives my mood an instant lift. Even though spring is still months away, you can incorporate brights into your outfits now. How? Read on for ideas!

::Wear with black and white::
Pippa tones down brightly colored jeans by adding a black and white plaid blouse with a blazer for warmth. You can achieve a similar look with a striped or black and white printed top too. I love how she kept the look minimal with the lack of accessories. Chic glasses, a black bag and booties is all you need. This is definitely an outfit I can see myself in.

::Neutralize it::
Add a nude, tan or blush toned top to a brightly colored pencil skirt and winter-ize it with a cardigan. Add another pop of color, if you dare, with shoes in a contrasting color. Again, minimal accessories. Let the color be the focus of the outfit.

::Colorblock it::
An outfit for the bold. I love the full sweeping maxi skirt paired with an orange tank and juxtaposed by a wine colored moto jacket. Feminine and tough. So many things to love about this outfit. Now, where can I get a skirt like this?

Love it all! Color, color, color!! I am dying for a few more pairs of colored denim in my life. Totally think I could wear it on casual work days, too. Great post.
I love love love love love color, I need more colorful bottoms in my life.
Totally agree with you – I want that skirt! My issue with maxi-length skirts, though, is they are never that long on me. They always hit right at the ankle…and I think it looks better when they are sweeping the floor like this pink one! Do they make some for giants?
We have the opposite problems! Tall girls and short girls – we always have issues. Who DO they make these clothes for anyway?
Great tips!! Love this. I need to be better about adding color to my winter looks and these ideas are perfect.
Love the tips. I love the 2nd and 3rd outfit. I’m on the search to find a maxi-length skirt.
Me too Ying!

Love the colors! I am such a boring dresser most days. I blame it on spending K-12 in uniforms. :’(
Ouch. Then you should totally embrace color now!
Start small. It gets easier!
didnt i buy you a colorblock shirt for christmas?! ]: andddd it was from forever21 too! (i THINK i recognize that model from the website! tehe) does it not fit nice?
Yes, you did, but I haven’t worn it yet. The armholes are a little big, but it’s no big deal, I can make it work.
And yes, those are all F21 items.
I am so in love with color! I almost never wear my black pants or regular blue jeans anymore. So glad this trend is here to stay.
I need more color!!! I have one pair of colored jeans and one pair of colored pants. I need more!!!
Love your picks! I am all about everything color, but definitely need to add more to my closet!
