Dior Fall 2010 Couture
Don't let the bright colors and the pairing of bright colors together scare you. Yes, beige, tan, camel and caramel are in this fall/winter; that just means you need to add some color to your wardrobe!
BCBG Ultraviolet Sweater Dress, $108 from Blue Fly
If you are hesitant about wearing jewel tones, start with your favorite color (I hope no one says their favorite color is black, tan, khaki, white, etc). Wear this favorite color boldly- as a top, jacket or pants. Now, pick your second favorite color, and wear it as an accent in jewelry and a bag.
Ecote Sparrow Belt, $24 from Urban Outfitters
As you get more comfortable playing with color, try different brights, textures and silhouettes.
Tarnish Turnlock Flap Satchel, $148 from Nordstrom
This is a trend you can wear day or night, work or for fun. You just need to keep your work and day pieces conservative; you don't need embellishments or anything over the top since the color is doing the work.
From Italy With Love Grandpa Cardigan, $98 from Blue Fly
I think you'll find putting together jewel toned outfits is easier than you imagine. All you really need to do is pick out two bright colors and wear one all over and the other sparingly. Simple, non?
Marc by Marc Jacobs Flat, $99 from Foot Notes Online
Challenge yourself in the coming week to wear a bright outfit you might not normally wear. Post it and show others how it's done!
