Brights @ Work

Summer is a season for bright colors! Some may be intimidated by bright colors at work but done in the correct context, anyone can pull them off. Our ever-so-stylish co-worker here pulled off Pantone's 2011 color of the year, Honeysuckle, off beautifully! She downplayed a vibrant dress to make it more suitable for work with earth tones using a short light brown jacket. The light brown jacket, then paired with a black belt, tied in with her black flats and bag. So when in doubt with bright colors, use work "appropriate" colors (browns, greys, blacks) to make a bold colored dress professional.
