Be Bold. Stay Solid. In Bold, Solid Color Dresses!


Wearing a bold solid color 
can be as striking as wearing
an allover print.

A few rules for wearing brights:
1. Select a color that suits your skin tone.

Rule Number Two:
2. Select shoes and accessories that balance the colour 
(and style) of the dress.

Perfectly poised with a simple metallic clutch. Or clutch-less, with a bold cuff.

Or let the dress —and the body— speak for itself.

Love the necklace and somehow the red shoes even work?!

Rule Number Three:
3. Spend more money on bold colors. 
Look for quality!

A hot pink or bright green dress from a discount store 
sadly might look 
like just that. 

But a similar dress in a fine fabric like silk, cashmere or wool makes all the difference. 

In the case of how to wear bold colour...
quality may the most important rule of all.
