Trend alert: bright colors and jewel tones

Sep 3, 2008 by FN's Trixie Reyna

trendalert_main.jpgThis season’s “it” colors are definitely vivid hues and jewel tones. They make you stand out and look glam even in the drab rainy season. The general rule for these trends, however, is to not overdo them.

Here are some pieces to guide you in wearing this season’s colors. Try on how these will look with accessories and other fab clothes (and view them from all angles) when we launch FN Dressing Room’s new collection next week!

MarieClaire.com’s gemstone colors rule is to keep things simple: “Mixing sapphire, emerald, and ruby shades says harlequin, not romance.”

Cosmopolitan.com, meanwhile, lays out rules for wearing the season’s saturated hues without looking like a “1980s aerobics instructor,” as illustrated in the gallery below.
