If you want to make a statement, go with saturated colors no matter the trend. Luckily, they are right on trend this season! Don’t be scared of the hues, all you need is some tips and the confidence to wear them. Once you start, you will be surprised how fun and easy they are to play with!

A bright-colored suit is a great start to experiment with this head-to-toe color trend. The classic and modern silhouette of the suit balance the loudness of its color, besides you can mix and match each separate with all the neutrals in your wardrobe.

After you picked the suit, choose pieces that are either neutral or in the same color family to complete the look, like the jacket on Olivia Palermo (60% off now!) and the blue cutout bustier on Candice Lake above.

For accessories, you can either choose neutral ones but with interesting details, like this gorgeous white cut-out sandals; or play colorblocking by teaming cobalt blue heels with a coral suit; or mix textures and prints by pairing a leopard belt with a jacquard top as Olivia Palermo did.

Last but not least, fabric is the key when wearing bright pieces. Since colored pieces naturally draws attention, you don’t want them to stick to your body, with that said, select fabrics that drape instead of cling, like breezy silk, lightweight wool, high-density cotton or structured jacquard.

I still remember that in the 80s, followed Madonna’s lead, my cool aunt loved wearing crop tops. This season, the trend came back! But definitely not with those shorts hanging on the hips. The above two looks of Elena Perminova are my favorite so far, and they are perfect examples of how to rock this “new” trend in a modern sophisticated way.

The key to baring midriff without looking vulgar is playing it coy, showing a hint of skin by teaming them with high waist pants or skirts. For sleeveless crop tops, I prefer to go with loose fitted, relaxed pants or over-the-knee skirt to balance the bare arms.

Details also make a huge difference. As showed on Elena Perminova, edgy modern accessories (like mirrored sunglasses and translucent pumps) and simple sophisticated color palettes (from fresh blue and white combo to urban chic neutrals) really elevate the whole look.
