Well colour blocking is a new trend that allows you to incorporate two or more colours in an outfit. The purpose of incorporating these colours is that it firstly the colours need to complimenteach other and secondly they need to compliment you.Vouge Magazines defines colour blocking as a "Loud and proud colour combinations make for a dynamic, confident look"www.vogue.co.uk/fashion/trends

This new trend that has hit South African fashion with a bang began two years ago and already it has so many people following it, so why not be the trend setter as well. The best part of colour blocking is that you can also incorporate your own style.

Yes, you might be asking yourself how does one wear lime green and purple at the same time well its simple, not only do these colours do wonder for your body but brings you at a standard of having fashion sense. Remember no one is asking you to wear outrageous colours but that should not dtop you from exaggerating, just a little bit.

Most African woman are really afraid of wearing bright colours for simple reasons like; it will not be as figure fitting, it will; not go with their complexion or simply it will not be age appropriate....but there is no need to feel this way because colour blocking is not only a trend but a trend that hides your flaws depending on what colour you wear and how you wear it, for example a darker combination of colour will give you a slimmer figure but one needs to STICK TO THE RULES OF YOUR BODY SHAPE and to not getcarried away that you soon look like the rainbow itself,that is not the point of colour blocking.


One important factor needs to be highlighted that YOUR GOING TO STAND OUT. Colour blocking shows your confidence and boldness so if you really want to follow this trend you have to be able to let go and let loose,
allow bright colours to linger in your wardrobe.
