Pattern clash isn´t new, right? Well, what´s new in this style idea is using green color as an element in contrast.

The bright color will give balance to a team of different patterns thus avoiding an overwhelming result.

Yellow is another hot spring color for this year. Did you notice the many beautiful yellow looks from the Spring/Summer runway? Designers such as Gucci, Oscar de la Renta, and Michael Kors made several versions of spring yellow outfits. If you´re thinking of wearing yellow separates, there are two new ways to do it.
First, take a yellow top to go with a pastel crop pant, or you clash two yellow print pieces such as a yellow striped tee and yellow dotted shorts pulled together with a brown blazer. If you´re thinking of wearing a one piece in yellow however, say a yellow trench coat or a yellow dress, black or nude shoes are best to complete them.
