January 2012 Lookbook: How to Wear Colorblocking

Omiru's January 2012 Lookbook: How to Wear Colorblocking
This look is part of Omiru’s January 2012 Lookbook series, which builds upon our 16-Piece January 2012 Capsule Wardrobe.  See more information about this look.

Colorblocking is nothing new, but it’s still a fun way to perk up your winter wardrobe.  How to keep colorblocking looking fresh?  Make a statement by pairing blocks of bright color with winter neutrals - whites, greys, and blacks.  We deliberately echoed the colorblocking on the dress with the tote bag to create a cohesive look.

1. Start with the colorblocked dress, paired with a slim legging to keep your legs warm.
2. Pile on the layers.  First add a cozy hoodie to winterize the look - and then bundle up in your winter coat.  Notice how the striping on the winter coat echoes the colorblocking on the dress.
3. Finish off the look with a pair of chunky black boots (solid, yet fashion forward) - and a colorblocked tote that pulls the look together.

How would you wear colorblocking?
