Neon...Big or Small

Well, sadly the Fourth of July has passed, which means summer is in full swing.  And that means color should be a staple in your wardrobe by now.  And by color, I mean brights!  Enter...the neon trend!!!  The reason I love adding neon is how easy it is to do.  You can go full on with tops and pants, or subtle with a fun shoe or bag.  Here are a few of my favorites and some ideas on how to work em.

I have been wanting to get a pair of neon skinny jeans since spring and just have't spring for them yet.  But most of them are on sale right now so this may be the perfect time!  I love this picture of Jessica Alba in pink skinnies.  The vest and studded flats are the coolest way to tone down a neon color.



I found a great deal at Guess for only $58.80 right now.  They come in pink, yellow, and orange.



And here is another picture of her with the same vest and flats, but a more subtle way to wear neon.



Here is a fun, soft neon tee from Gap for $22.  The look above can be worked with any neon color combo.



Another perfect way to wear neon is bags. There are so many styles out there right now.  A big one this season is satchels.  I love the whole look here on Alessandra Ambrosio.  The look is so easy and laid back, but the bag adds just the right amount of funk.  (P.S. I love the braided hair and how it adds to the look.)



Her bag is by the Cambridge Satchel Company, found on shopbop.com for $155.  Here it is in pink neon.


I found this one on Lulu's for $41...and couldn't resist the color combo :-)  Go Blue (in neon) !



Last, but never least...neon shoes! This part was easy. And it might be the easiest way to wear neon.  White tee + skinny jeans + neon pumps = AMAZING! I love these pumps by BCBGeneration found at Nordstrom for $88.95.  The come in yellow, orange, and pink.



If you would rather go with a flat, try these sandals by DV by Dolce Vita from Piperlime. The neon pink are on sale for $44.99.



And just because of my recent fall getting off a boat...some neon boat shoes!  You can be on trend and save your legs from some injury all at the same time!  These Sperry's are on sale on Piperlime for $89.99.

Happy July everyone!!!
