Shocking Colorblocking!
It's time to be bold and to wear shocking neon pink, flashy yellow, bright blue, or garish green! Even better, try combining them together for a very high fashion look (think SS2011 Gucci, Jil Sander, Prada etc.) I promise that A) you'll feel amazing B) you'll look amazing! And if you don't know how, these girls are showing you the way! They may be mixing different colors, but they all have one thing in common: they all said wearing bright colors made them feel cheerful! Try it!

"I got these super rad wedges from Haus of Price the other month and it has these colorful stones (in all colors you can think of) glued on them and from then on, I can´t stop wearing this colorblocking trend. It just makes me happier. Black outfits are super chic but kinda puts me down!" Anjelica

"Colors colors colors! Sometimes I love them, sometimes I don't. This spring I'm loving them; obviously! These are both vintage pieces; the blue dress is from my grandmother and the pink piece is something I found just recently in a thrift-store. The dress is actually much longer, I just used safety-pins to shorten it: that way I don't have to cut it off!" Barbro

"All my life I've liked vivid colors, orange, neon yellow , indigo, emerald green, red … they´re full of life and give joy just watching them. So this season this trend has been a blessing to me because colors are not only very fashionable but we can combine them together in blocks of color, fearless, to contrast." WonEphe

"I love to wear this trend because no one ever wears this many colours in one go unless it's in a print. It's almost like going against the rules and it's such a shocking result that it attracts a lot of attention, in a good way. You see people looking at you and their expression changes to 'it shouldn't work but it does!'. It's a damn fine feel-good trend" Emma

"I love this trend so much, because it impersonates my lively character. I won't think twice about wearing vibrant colors, I love to be bold, strong and full of lights. Colorblocking seems quite hard to be applied for some people, because they still got no courage to mix two or more vibrant colors into their outfit, which was very challenging for me too." Lauretha

"I think that those colorful sets are great, especially during those days in Poland. Winter is over and spring hasn't begun yet. It's very grey and depressing, so if nature can't give us some color, we have to find them by ourselves. Orange, coral and rose are great combination and don't look too gaudy. Besides clothes and necklace, color was even in the make up." Agnieska

"My main inspiration was from Gucci's S/S 2011 runway, the colors they mixed were all so gorgeous together, so I went on the hunt for some bright colors. This outfit is a refreshing change my from usual neutral color palette so I was surprised when I realized the 'Shocking Color-blocking' trend can make you feel really great about yourself!" Erica

"The reason for this outfit is that I was highly addicted to orange color lately, I bought so many items in orange, basically everything from maxi dress, shoes, shorts, skirt etc. I think orange looks great and it will brighten up you whole outfit, and it's perfect for Spring season." Joandy
