CORAL OBSESSION: Be the Image of Spring


Coral Pink 
I love the bright colorful hues of summer, especially with juicy splashes of tangerine, peach, and coral.  I love that the color coral has a way of adding just a flush of color to any wardrobe whether you’re wearing it on your top, around your neck or on your tootsies.  If you've ever wondered how to wear coral, here are a few ways I've found:
What I'm wearing:
Blazer: H&M, Dress: H&M, Tights: Primark, Scarf: H&M, Bag: Cole Haan, Accessories: Temptation Boutique, Shoes: BCBG, Watch: GUESS, Hairband: H&M










No list of spring color trends would be complete without some pink, and this season’s most popular hue is a bright shade with just a hint of orange. Coral has a great blend of femininity and edginess that works in any girl’s wardrobe. Hopefully you’ll find a piece that matches your aesthetic below!
Coral is going to be everywhere Spring 2012 from lipsticks to shoes to handbags and more.  What other color screams SPRING more than coral?
A few tips on this awesome but sometimes scary to wear color.
1. Pair it with neutrals – but also try pairing it with other brights….you will look fabulous!!.  It looks great with khaki, white, denim, black any netural really and turquoise.
2.  Choose a Coral that works with your skintone – Some corals or more pink, some or more orange.  Try the different shades of coral and see what words for you.
3.  Try something small first – Maybe its just painting your toes coral, this little bit of color will give you some time to allow yourself to adjust to the color and determine whether its “you” or not with little to no investment.
4.  Have Fun with it – Coral is such a happy, fun color…how can you not have fun while wearing it.
Here are a few of my favorite coral items for spring:
Gone are the days when people who wear outrageous outfits are condemned. Now, with all you artistic freedom, use the color of coral as your tool for a trendy, chic, and fun fashion extravaganza.
