Neon Love

Hello again friends!

Did ya miss me last week? I didn’t get to post, we were in the midst of a big move to a different server or something technical like that.

Anyway, today we’re going to talk NEON! Now, I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVE neon, it’s so easy to incorporate and not as scary as it sounds! Unless, of course, you’re thinking of doing something like this:

 

 

THAT, my friends, is scary.

Neon is best in small doses. To add spunk and a little something unexpected to an outfit. Personally (and you may not agree) I think in the case of neon less definitively more.

Somethings that work perfectly in neon, which keep it modern, chic and pretty are:

Nail Polish:

China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy

I have that last one, Flip Flop Fantasy, and I can tell you, it’s soo much prettier in person! I’m wearing it in this post.

Jewelry:

Shoes:

and of course, Handbags:

Neon Purse from Aldo, available in Hot Pink too.

AND, an awesome bonus: neon is  SO EASY to DIY! Just look at all the DIY project above, purses, jewelry, bags and even shoes! And all you have to do is pick up some paint. No sewing, nothing fussy. Chic and affordable? Heck yeah!

Talk you all again next Friday! Have a great and neon-y weekend!

    My wardrobe tends to be so color neutral that it completely bores me. I’ve become more inspired and adventuresome in my style, but I don’t really have the funds to completely redo my wardrobe. I can however afford some nail polish or some spray paint. I wonder what I own that I could spray neon? :-)

  2. I always, always buy gray. Always. My husband can’t stand it, but its totally my comfort zone. However, I DO love neon! BUT I am taking part in a clothing challenge…so no new fun things for awhile! Great post though! :)
