I’ve been seeing a lot of color blocked looks lately which I think are fun for summer. I’ve never been big on full-on patterned looks, so color-blocked looks are a great versatile alternative for those of us who don’t like loud prints. It’s so much easier to match accessories when you’re wearing both black and white, for example. I’m loving the Alexander Wang and Alice + Olivia dresses pictured above and at less than $400 for each of them, they won’t break the bank. The only danger with this trend? Anything with too many different color blocked colors can turn into an Cosby sweater-esque disaster!
