How to Wear Bright Colors

Choice of colors in dressing has a lot to do with the impression you make out there. With spring squarely upon us, now’s the time to try fashion trends that involve bright shades. Wearing bright, bold colors actually helps to boost your confidence for certain events.


Maybe you’re throwing a house party, getting your high school degree online or have to pass some certification exam. When you dress in bright, bold colors, it helps to lift your spirits, which leaves you feeling more confident about whatever it is that you need to get done. You need not worry about how people out there will perceive your outfit, if you follow these simple guidelines. After all, one objective of wearing bright colors is to be inspired and to inspire:

  • Accessories – Wearing bold-colored accessories is an excellent way of injecting more vibrancy to your outfit. This works well, especially when the clothes you’re wearing are neutral or dull shades. Dull accessories also work wonders when you have to neutralize a bright-colored outfit.
  • Calm Down Brights with Neutrals – A few neutral colored items can be worn with a brightly colored item for a calming effect. If you wear a bold colored sweater, pick your shirt, pants, footwear, scarf and other items in neutral color shades, to calm down the brights. Brown, gray, ivory, and other neutral shades work perfectly for creating a calming effect.
  • Framing Brights – If your main garment is a bold color, you can tame it with bright or non-bright colors. This helps to create a less intense effect, which makes it easier for people to welcome your outfit.
  • Limit the Bright Colors Worn – Creating a bright look can be fun. However you want to be careful to limit how many bright colors you mix at once. It is best not to wear more than two or three bright colors at once as a mix of many brights can be jarring on the eyes. As much as experimenting with loud outfits is fun, overdoing it may have unintended results.
  • Patterns – Solid bright colors can be hard on the eyes. However, by breaking up the brights with a pattern, the effect is kinder on the eyes. Dark or neutral colors work well to break up intense color hues.
  • Tamp Down Brights with Darks – If you choose to wear a bright colored dress, donning on a dark jacket helps to tamp down the bright dress. This also works the other way around. By pairing a brightly colored item of clothing with a dark item, the brightness will be toned down considerably. The contrast of bright and dark colors also creates a pleasing effect.

Perhaps you have a keen interest in accessories, colors, dressing and other aspects of fashion. You may want to think about going to an online school for fashion design. This will give you the opportunity to learn more about techniques for wearing colors well and how to create an impact in dressing.
