Color Blocking Fashion Trend

We often hear this fashion trend nowadays... So what does color blocking mean?

Color blocking - is combining loud and bright colors for more dynamic and confident look...

But if you're not ready to mix or combine colors Black and White offers a modern look all you need to do is to add BOLD colorful accessories! (Shoes, handbags, bracelets, and necklaces take part in this trend and are an amazing way to maximize your look! ) 

Here's a little tip to help you in color blocking...1. is to choose 3 colors for an ideal combination (use the color wheel below)

Most popular theory in color combination is the rule of two thirds.

How to achieve this?

Start by making and equilateral triangle (triangle with 3 equal sides) on the color wheel

from there PICK two of the three colors that the triangle touches...

these colors will almost harmonize together beautifully.

Here are few color blocking samples:

Cobalt blue, Yellow, Orange

Chocolate Brown, Pink, Peach

Purple, Bright Blue, Teal

Deep Blue, Bright Pink, White

Coral, Gray, Ivory

What's with the Planner...?

I don't know why I am so drawn in collecting planners or organizers.  I recently received a Starbucks 2011 planner from my cousin Steph. Honestly, i don't really like writing on them, i just keep them. I am happy seeing them piled in my bookshelf at home... At work i have a couple in my drawer... 

Some of them i keep, but i also use planners to organize my "things-to-do" and to remember...

This year i am using a Hello Kitty planner I got from National Bookstore.  ♥
