A Perfect Pairing.

 Bright Nights

Brighter than bright neon hues have a new best friend this coming fall. Grey.


I admit, even though I am a HUGE fan of colour, I am already slightly sick of the bright on bright trend that is in command this summer. I guess thats what happens when you live at the bottom of the world. The southern hemisphere sets a trend, the street style blogs/runways/magazines grab hold of it and we, down here in NZ, are tired of it before we even get to try it. 

Christopher Kane's Spring 2011 show set the neon movement in motion and now almost every designer from Marc to Marni has something acidic for sale on Netaporter.

Thankfully (and not surprisingly) the fashion pack has found a fresh way to wear those electric pieces. Neon and grey seems to be THE combination for this fall with everyone who's anyone embracing the look. I love this dark on bright pairing, the pop of neon against an otherwise flat pallet is perfection. I don't like black with colour for some reason, if I am wearing black I would rather be in ALL black. Grey is soft where black is hard, I think here black is too jarring.
