I've never been one to wear yellow. In fact, my grandma used to say that I looked like a fried egg in yellow because I'm so fair-skinned and often look like I'm washed out with the color yellow. Maybe a nice little tan will help that. As I glance through my closet, I don't see much yellow at all, except for one J.Crew cardigan Santa brought me for Christmas. What ever will I do this season to stay up on the trend?Well, I can think of a few things. Accessorizing is always fun and with solid colors it's so easy to do. Why not find a yellow belt or a nice pair of yellow pumps that will really pop your outfit even more? If it's a belt, I think the best choice would be something in the brown or navy blue family over black -- black and yellow remind me of a bumblebee! But if you're wearing black on top and a nice pair of yellow heels, you can certainly belong to the trendy fashionista crowd. And a yellow accessory can really funk-up an outfit so don't be afraid to take risks.
Additionally, I have a yellow Cole Haan bag that I've had for a few seasons now and I'm still obsessed with it. I'm very excited that it will be the in-color, for I tend to wear it a lot during the Spring and Summer months regardless of the fashion trend!
For those of us who may not like to wear yellow, we can accessorize or try to vary the type of yellow. There's mustard, lemon, banana, saffron, gold, and the list goes on. Perhaps you will find a piece with some yellow accents on it. No matter what your yellow taste, there's sure to be some sort of item out there that will help you fit this fashion trend. But in the meantime, maybe you should get a tan on the beach first with the yellow sun… :)
