If you really want to be in style this summer, one of the biggest fashion statements you can make is by adding some vivid colors to your wardrobe.

Don’t be afraid of wearing shocking hues - as long as you use them in the right ensembles and wear them the right way, it will be fabulous.

One of the best guidelines you can stick to when it comes to donning bright colors is to wear them with dark denim.

If you want to wear a vibrant neon yellow or green shirt for instance, wear them with wide leg dark denim jeans or a cute dark denim skirt, to add balance to the ensemble.

Zac Posen One of the easiest ways to model your favorite bright colored fashions this season is to wear them in a dress.

You can do almost no wrong when wearing vibrant hues in a dress, just make sure that if there is a pattern it is appropriately proportioned to your body.

Also keep in mind that bright colors do not always have to be fluorescents and neons.

Calvin Klein

If you are interested in going with the trend of brightness but want to keep it subtle and classic, try this full-length dress from Calvin Klein.

Pair it with a chic pair of pumps and you will not only fit right in with the trend of saturated hues that is taking over the world today, but will look great doing it.

Layering is another fantastic trick to wearing brights, the best idea being to combine them with true classic neutral pieces.

It’s really all about contrast, so don’t worry too much about being all matchy-matchy, and look for colors that play off each other and draw the attention to you.

The great thing about bright colors is that they help you to stand out from the crowd, and you can dress them up or play them down, depending on the type of look that you are going for.

Regardless of what road you decide to take with your hot hues, remember to not be daunted by brighter pieces. Have fun with your clothing, play around with it, and find out what works for you.
