I have a friend who often says, “If you’re going to be a bear, be a grizzly.” It’s a Ghandi quote, but essentially it means that if you are going to do something, really do it. So the burgeoning Spring time weather seems like a perfect opportunity to wear a double dose of my favorite color for the season.
As of late, it feels like my approach to neons is as ‘grizzly bear-ed’ out as possible. I’ve found that pairing a neon with a saturated version of the same color, makes for a super bold, Spring-time take on monochromatic dressing.
It’s not for the faint of fashion heart, but then again, if you’re considering a neon anything, I sort of doubt that’s your issue.
Coco Chanel once said, “Put on all the accessories you think you should wear… and then take one piece off.” These days, I feel like I’ve been putting on all of my accessories and then adding one more piece. I’ve always loved jewelry from afar, but choice-overload gives me a kind of fashion paralysis. Thus, I have never been much of an accessory girl. Lately, I can’t get enough of it.
Thanks for reading; talk soon.
