Color Blocking is Back!
This may not be the first time you have heard about this fashion statement, and it is not likely to be the last! Color blocking was a huge trend in the 1960’s when mod fashion was around, and it’s back now in 2011! This trend, though it may look complicated, is really quite simple. There are plenty of pieces that come already color blocked for you, but if you are adventurous enough, go out on a limb and get funky! Pair some bright pants with a striped shirt. The only rule here is this… Don’t match! It seems a little scary, but isn’t that the fun of it? Below are some pieces from around the Row to help you get started on your crazy color blocked wardrobe!
H&M: “Color-Blocked Sweater” - $29.95
Urban Outfitters: “Sparkle & Fade Colorblock Top” - $39.99-54.00
Urban Outfitters: “BDG Cigarette High-Rise Jean” - $58.00
If you are not ready for the vibrant side of color blocking, don’t worry. Neutrals or even black and white paired with a color can be a great way to color block.

Hey guys! Don’t worry, we haven’t forgotten about you - you can join in the fun, too! Try a simpler color-blocking, like something with only two colors. Check out the jacket below from H&M.
