CoLOUR BLock

hye...btw yesterday 26/JUNE/2011 ...my BIRTHDAY...22th ..;)

okay so back to topic , today we will discuss about COLOUR BLOCKING trend.. ..i like how they combined those colour perfectly..

1. •Why do you need to be careful while following the color block trend?
   Since they often involve the use of bright colours or many different colours together, it is easy to go wrong with it. The best way to pair colour block trends whether it’s for shoes, a tunic or a top is with other basic colours such as black, white, brown and gray. This way your colour block will pop out more and look more polished.

2•Why should you do the trend?

If you have been lapping up fashion news regularly, you will know how horribly ‘in’ it is. And if you still need another convincing reason to wear the trend. Here’s it – Use it to hide flaws of your body. I have your full attention now, don’t I? Women after all.  

So what I was saying is, use it to hide flaws, as we all know dark colours have a slimming effect, so colour-block the winter paunch or those baby fatty arms with dark shades and keep the rest of your outfit light coloured. It really works.

 3•Basically this is how it will work for your body – 

A darker column of color down the torso will have a slimming effect and can easily be created by wearing a colored cardigan, jacket or blouse worn open.

Generally a color blocked outfit will work best if you stick to the usual rules for your body shape. If you are pear shaped, opt for darker colors on the bottom half. 

If you are apple shaped avoid horizontal blocks of color around the stomach area but highlight legs with color blocks created by brightly colored tights. 

If you are hourglass, a color block around the waist is a great way of highlighting it and drawing attention to you womanly figure.

 In my opinion it is really fun trend to sport this summer :

1.  it gives us the opportunity to pair colors which we won’t dare to combine together otherwise.   ( yeah like green with yellow or blue )
2. what are summers without cheerful bright colors??

Its time to paint the town in all colors possible !!!
 

 btw u can't just wear it .. there are  PRECAUTIONS  ( yeah i'm medical student )  that u need to follow :

1. Don’t be shy to experiment. Any color combination is fantastic if you can pull it off properly. Blue, green and orange sounds mad but will look oh-so-pretty.
2. Do not combine more than three to four colors. It’s not that it doesn’t look nice, but it looks very ‘ramp’ish. Moreover more colors will keep cutting your body shape here and there making it a not so beautiful sight.
3. Choose what you want to color block and keep the rest of your look simple. For example, if you opt for a colorblocked bag, go easy on the clothes and shoes. You don’t want to look like a Rubik cube, do you??
4. Never ever ever combine two color blocked items. This is the worst thing to do to this trend. No actually you can, its just that you will end up looking like the latest catalogue of Asian paints.

So, go on and have fun blocking colors.
Stay stylish.
