By this time we all know that brights, otherwise known as “the almost-garish colors you forgot existed” are a staple for spring. One of the biggest colors is a yellow that you may remember seeing in blazer form in 1980s magazine spreads. Not everyone can wear this season’s saturated crocus-yellow shade, but it looks great with caramel and darker skin tones. (When in doubt, paler girls might want to stick to clear, light lemon yellows to flatter their complexions.)
Stars in the new yellow:
– J-Lo steps out in a yellow tunic dress (and matching bangle) in sunny Miami
– Rachel McAdams in the April issue of Elle: a high-fashion interpretation of strong yellow
– Jessica Alba at the MTV Movie Awards, in a gorgeous tulip-skirt strapless dress
– Beyonce’s leather jacket is a paparazzi magnet while she’s out and about in New York
– Kerry Washington looking stunning in a decidedly springlike (and extremely yellow) gown at the premiere of I Think I Love my Wife
Color pairing guide for spring/summer 2007’s yellow:
– with white: a fresh, summery combination that usually reads as preppy.
– with black: unless the clothes you’re wearing have shapes or details unique enough to steal the spotlight away from their colors, you’re in very real danger of looking like a bumblebee.
– with charcoal gray: an unexpected combination that really works, as gray is a neutral.
– with brown: brown will take the edge off the yellow, so you can use it to temper your look when you’re feeling a bit beacon-like.
– with denim: an easy way to introduce the shade into your wardrobe.
– with anything else: you’re venturing into risky territory, but you could experiment with an unapologetic red, pink, or blue.
That Jessica Alba ‘example’ is pretty old – last year in fact – that it’s actually waaaaaay before this ‘trend’ even existed.
Not if you happen to be a fair skinned blonde in which case yellow is about the fugliest colour you could choose to wear.
Looks nice on the dusky ladies.
Most people can wear yellow – you just have to choose the right shade. Here’s a great book to help you find the colors that will flatter you best: http://www.amazon.com/Color-Me-Confident-Change-Your/dp/0600614999
Apparently Jessica Alba was ahead of her time! The photo was only meant to depict the shade of yellow in question, and not to imply that celebrities have only been wearing it during the last couple of months.
