LOVING Bright/Bold Colors in Fashion

I adore bright colors and perhaps my current enthusiasm is because the gray Pacific Northwest weather is finally wearing on me (or perhaps it's a subsect of my continued rebellion against conservative office wear), but no matter....I'm loving this trend. Color block it, use something bright as a needed pop of color, do whatever you want with it- -just do it well and do it often. And thank you to all of the people who embrace colors and patterns and make the visual landscape of our world more interesting.

LOVE Christian Siriano Spring/Summer 2012

(I like how I'm starting with the piece de resistance. Eh, whatever, I'm not patient.) Christian Siriano is amazing and whenever I'm flipping through fashion porn via Style.com, I always feel disappointment that he isn't counted among the "Who's Who" of the fashion world. Who did he piss off at Conde Nast?! Either way, I will continue to pledge my homage.
