How to Add Color to your Neutral Wardrobe

For some of us the emergence of color is great news, but for others vibrant hues may be slightly intimidating. If you fall into the latter group, I encourage you to give the trend a try. And you don’t have to leave the house in a lime green outfit to participate! Start by including pops of color into your neutral ensemble. Pair a floral top (13) with a pair of blush pants (20), and a vibrant lip color. Or, incorporate a vibrant shoe (10) with a crisp little white dress (5). There’s no wrong way to do it!

Stand Out in the Crowd

It’s official, I want one of everything on this list. The rainbow maxi (1) is an obvious must-have item, but I’ve been eyeing the mules (10) and pumps (11) for weeks. One can never own too many pairs of shoes…am I right? But aside from bold hues and vibrant prints, I am loving the resurgance of tie dye apparel. It makes wearing button downs (8) and classic tops (7) more exciting to wear. Now which item is on your must-have list?!

Stay classy in tweed. This iconic fabric looks good in every shape or form. I am loving the versatility of this suit (4)!

What goes around comes around! I can still remember tying a Hanes under-shirt into a tiny little bundle inside the bathtub of my childhood home in the early 90s. Fast forward to 2019 and Kelsey Takes Tie Dye 2.0 is what I refer to as, “modern day chic!” 31 going on 13. Haha!

You already know my thoughts on biker shorts…they have the ability to be dressed gracefully and elegantly. Today’s outfit is a playful rendition on the hottest new trend. What you see here is a spandex romper and a high low top. I am always quick to cover my backside when I wear biker shorts. #BigBootyProblems. You never know what you are going to get in the summer July, weather-wise in SF. For that reason I topped off the look with a pink denim jacket.

Bright Hues

Great news for lovers of color: The brighter the better! From neon pink (9), vibrant orange (3), to highlighter yellow, you will not go unnoticed sporting this season’s haute palette. Pro Tip: incorporate pastel hues into your springtime ensemble to tone down your look.

Bold Accessories

Dare to be bold in complementary accessories! Consider pairing a statement shoe (4 & 14) with your little neon dress. Get stacky and tacky with rainbow rings (13) and matching hair clips (10) – more is definitely more.

Do not let the neon trend intimidate you. Just because you would not wear a bright sequin dress, doesn’t mean you cannot mix in this happy hue else wear. Start small and consider “popping” your outfit with blazing accessories. A pair of earrings, a purse, or shoes will do the trick. Any guesses which of the three have made it off of my “wish list” and into my shopping cart?

Make bold moves with a neon suit or a dramatic dress. I LOVE this pink two piece set because it’s like getting three outfits out of one. How CUTE would these shorts be paired with a tangerine sweater?! You already know how I feel about platform shoes, and this pair has got it goin’ on!

Finally, wedding guest season just became more enjoyable thanks to the surplus in orange dresses. This stunner would be perfect for a beachside wedding. Take it up a notch with contrasting colors. Consider a yellow slide and statement jewelry.

But the fun does not stop here! Did you know I update the “Shop” tab on my website weekly? Click here to see the rest of my neon picks and stay tuned to see which items on this list make it into my spring wardrobe.

Timeless Accessories

Classic jewelry and accessories go a long way. Up your look for less with diamonds or pearls! Lately I have been toting this pearl purse with blush garments and it elevates the look effortlessly. No one would ever know it, but this exact bag is a designer dupe and about $500 cheaper than its counterpart. The same goes for the earrings. If you peruse Moda Operandi or Farfeth often, then you probably notice a close resemblance to Alessandra Rich jewelry. I am happy to report this pair is from Baublebar and under $50.

Wear it like you Own it

I think the heading speaks for itself. The greatest fashion accessory (in my opinion) is your confidence. If you walk out of the house in a dress you are unsure about, and constantly fidget with it, you will draw attention to it! But if you step out and OWN IT, no one will think twice. Rock your look for less like it’s from Neiman Marcus! Speaking of lavish items, do you recognize the backdrop in these photos?! Believe it or not, this beautiful Pacific Heights home was the High School in the Walt Disney movie The Princess Diaries!

The post $39 Lace Slit Dress that is Fit for a Princess appeared first on Kelsey Kaplan Fashion.

This retro little number is a modern-day take on the t-shirt dress – a “basic with a twist.” The material is soft and stretchy, while the princess seams and fit and flare silhouette are ultra flattering on the hips. Had I thought of it earlier, I would have styled this polka dot dress with a pillbox hat. Who do I think I am, Marilyn Monroe or something?! One must pair a classic print with equally classy accessories. That is where the pearls come into the picture…

To me, pearl jewelry is the equivalent of a neutral coat. It matches with everything. You already heard my schpiel about this glamorous purse, but I want to share a story with you regarding the sunglasses. They are certainly a splurge item (dupe available here), but they did help land me a spot in Harper’s Bazar during NYFW…just sayin’. Anyway, have you ever experienced buyer’s remorse? When you buy something and then feel unconfident as to whether or not you made the right decision afterwards? Usually this feeling is self-inflicted, but just the opposite occurred when I purchased these designer frames. The sales associate encouraged me to return the sunglasses after wearing them for the weekend because “[ I ] could only photograph such a statement piece once or twice.” AWKWARD. I can appreciate a salesperson not being too salesperson-y, but this person was causing me buyer’s remorse before I even left the store. I am happy to report that I’m thrilled with my purchase, and I have already shot them a handful of times. When you know, YOU KNOW. I guess that’s love!
