OBSESSING about color-blocking

Color-blocking is a trend I can seriously get behind this season.  It is everywhere and when worn correctly,it can be for everyone. 
Two things to keep in mind when rocking this trend are  proportions and colors.
Blocks of color can tend to create lines of proportion on your body. Make sure that the lines being created on your body are the most flattering for your shape.
Also, make sure you pick colors that look fabulous with your most important assets, your hair, skin and eyes. Keeping these two important factors in mind will insure that you are presenting your most fabulous you as you rock this trend.

Here are a few examples of fun, successful color-blocking

Go Vintage

Thrift stores, consignment stores, estate sales- and sometimes even garage sales are great places to find pieces that will enhance what you already have in your wardrobe.  We love finding unique accessories at places like Goodwill, Value Village, Inside Vintage and Dumpster Values (Olympia, Wa) and at estate sales.  Stephanie will frequently take a morning out of her week to check out local shops to see what they have.  The key to vintage shopping is to go frequently and see what is out there.  Some of the great finds we have made at vintage stores are pictured.
