Style Watch: How to Wear Neon
We’ve all been in love with a brightly coloured day-glo piece at least once in our lives, but been afraid to buy it because of the age old question “What will I wear with this?” Well neon is definitely in this summer and we’re looking for any way we can to incorporate a pop of colour into our wardrobes. Here are some handy tips for styling neon this season:
- Try wearing a dark or understated colour like black, charcoal or dark brown as a base to direct attention smoothly between your neon garments.
- If you’re not feeling quite brave enough to dawn a neon dress or top, try accenting a neutral outfit with neon accessories like a hat or bright piece of jewelry
- Have you ever heard of the LBD? No, not the Little Black Dress, the Little Bright Dress! Try on a sleek minimally detailed dress in a bright colour with some dark accessories to ground the look.
