SUMMER COLOUR BLOCKING & POPPING >


 
SUMMER COLOUR BLOCKING & POPPING > 
 
It's poppin' purple and oh-la-la orange for me today! To my fellow Melbournians, don't let today's typical weather throw you - it will be a stinking hot summer before you know it! I am always keen to get in early when it comes to bathers and maxi dresses for summer. Beat the crowds in early December and avoid that awkward moment at the beach when the girl two towels down is wearing the same bathers as you! There are so many beautiful floral, Aztec and tie-dye patterns available in-store at the moment. Go Crazy - colour, print, big glasses and hats! 
 
 
P & O COLOUR RULES & STYLING:
 
Orange and purple are analogous colours, aka close by one another on the colour wheel. This colour combo always makes for a chic and fresh outfit. P & O can be styled so many ways, whether it's colour blocked or a print, like my Mink Pink bathers above. If you do decide to colour block it's important to remember the following guidelines > to complete a fab CB'd outfit; combine two or three colours that complement or contrast rather than match each other. The colours should be solid and vivid to make the boldest statement. *WHAT ARE VIVID COLOURS? Strikingly bright, strong and intense colours - for example: fuchsia, magenta & lime*.
